I have a sativa that was supposed to be an auto that want's to be 15 feet tall.
How many times can i supercrop it? Can I just keep bending the stems as they get too tall? It's been flowering for a little over a week.

Some sativas continue stretching for up to 4 weeks. Too late to top without killing yield. Keep bending, or get a box extention
So they can stretch for another 2 or 3 weeks huh? I'm fucked.
I will have to add another extension. This morning I got up and a couple of shoots had grown past the light. The light is at 6 ft 6 so the shoots were close to 6 ft high not counting the pot. Damn thing's only 7 weeks old. I topped at 2 weeks and have been bending it for the last 3 weeks. I just wondered how many times can I bend it, damn things one crooked mf.

I've had plenty of stems with multiple bends in them. You can keep supercropping until the stem gets too woody late in flower. Even then you can, but you have to work at it carefully for while to keep it from snapping.
