Super Cropping to Limit Size?? help please!

Hey all so techniquly im a beginner but my question is a little more advanced so I decided to post it in this thread...hope someone can help me out!

So im in an indoor grow and my babys are getting to tall (currently already 2.4ft); and I am still in veg. I just transplanted my 2nd set of clones into my room and I need to wait for the new ladys to catch up before I put them all into flower at once (i obviously only have 1 room).

I was wondering if supercropping will help stop the verticle growth of the older plants. My theory is that the plants will need to use all additional energy to fix the supercropped branches and therefor take the focus off the verticle growth? Is this correct? Do anyone have any suggestions?

Its to late to LST them and the second transplant of clones are just into week 2 of veg, so I have to hold off on flower for another 2 weeks. I only have about 5 ft in my closet so Im running out of space and time! any suggestions or help will be amazing!
Also if the supercropping is a good idea how is this done in regards to amounts? That is how many branches at a time or per day should i be doing this to?
Thanks again and I look forward to any and all advice!

Ok here let me explain it to you it goes like this

2.4 foot tall plant if triggered to flower is 100% over 5 five feet. You need to act now and if your waiting for the little guys to catch up you need to act SEVERELY.
Heres what u can do, you have 4 options pretty much. 1)Topping the plant 2) FIMMING the plant 3) Supercropping 4) Bending
which one should you use? maybe even all of them YOU NEED TO STOP MAIN GROWTH NOW, TOP it, SUPER CROP IT, BEND IT, JUST GET IT LOWER BUB!! research them all find out what you think, but if it was me i would hit the hard and hit them fast, especially if ur going another 2 weeks!

message me if u got questions

i agree with serious smoker....`
Suppercropping will for sure help.. but its mostly if your growing all clones and some plants are stretching more than others you can make a balanced canopy thanks to suppercropping.. its my favorite method!!!
but in your case its not gonna be enough.. i would either bend the plant if you have enough space! or top them... and do it low! once that has been done... keep them leveled by supercropping.... the goal is to have a perfect canopy where all buds receive the same amount of light in the grow room...
Good luck my friend!
