Yes I did. I have been reading for nine months. No matter what anyone says, you can read and research as much as you like but will still run into problems here and there as a beginner.. Same goes for anything really.

Yes, if you cannot find that anywhere that is a go go, I had my first grow and I even found that out, you get it and sway it back and forth not very bad and try not to snap the whole thing when you try it because the op of the plant can be bendy because of its fast vertical growth, I had stem the size of my forearm and a 1.5 foot plant i topped it becauseof dry reasons fucked its vertical growth I ended up with 2 heads and a heap of new veg growth, grew that plant for almost 2 years, could of grown it out longer but I got sick of it, although it was a nice skunk x dutch passion white widow, I think I added up a whole yield of 2 pounds over their growth, it was good I had a constant harvest going for the whole time, see what common sense can do, I had read up alot about growing but not about re-vegging , re-vegging is such a good idea if you can manage, I also love those plants that I grow outdoors in spring that get 1 foot and then bud out, sorry about that got side tracked

Haha no where.. But nothing told me not to do it either.. I had the height of my buckets with plants.. I had my height of the net I used for my last grow (I just grew the plants up to the screen and weaved every second night).. It left me with the height at where I had to pinch and bend (crush and bend).. Obviously too low, I should have elevated the screen.

Well the research was more on how to set up the rdwc and all that properly.. I watched every video of that hygro hybrid guy on YouTube..
But when it came to supercropping, everything I read/watched said pretty much just pinch and bend over.. So for me to flatten the plants and get them under the predetermined screen height..
I pinched (with pliers), and bent over, obviously damaging/snapping the cells.

oh luckily I grow in soil all I needed to know is what plant foods and fertilisers to use and what slope to put my plants on

Some serious grouth my brotha! Make sure u put it with the wide side in aso that it expands the shaft!
This will cause the same effect as another new plant growiong on the same stem!
Of course theres alot of people that will not belive this but theve probably never grew shit in there lives! .. lol
Youre welcome bra..
Sorry about your plants OP, thats a rough learning curve.
Next time you try supercropping start with the smaller branches near the top of your canopy. If I understand it right, you're supposed to supercrop that newer growth, not the main branches coming off the base of your plant.
Im just now starting to experiment with supercropping myself, so goodluck to us both bud.

Hey thanks man.. I am very pissed off at the moment haha.. I have cut away everything that has died which is about 80%. Am now in the process of putting the 3 plants, what's left, all together under a smaller screen.. With one light instead of three..
Been told they may or may not Hermie.. Will see what happens in a week. Cheers for the advice.

They will hermie man U have Massivly stressed and fcked that plant up if the genetics r slightly bad u run the risk of hermie...my first grow with the big split in main stem I did the plant hermie 5 weeks into flower and only that 1 outa 5 I noticed the banana so was ok cause I just ripped that plant early but serious why risk it takes 4 weeks to regrow next time u do a scrog grow u get string and tie the plant at the 3 rd node after topping side ways and do this till it's get to big then add screen a good scrog takes patience and a little skill there's lotsa tutorials on how to prepare ur plant for a screen

Hey thanks for replying again.. I am running the risk 1 because I am renting at the moment and I have inspections every 16 weeks.. So can only do one full grow in those 16 weeks then have to pack everything up for the inspection from the real estate agent.. And 2, I live in Australia, anything to do with weed in the entire country is illegal. So if realestate saw it would be in jail in 2 seconds.. Haha

This why I stopped scroggin real estate inspections ever 3 months ...
U should just super crop and lst man ur plant I do this 1 and half months before inspection start ur seeds get good seeds from bonza seeds fem seeds u need girls lol super crop lst em for that 1 and a half months before inspection on inspection day box ur plants in normal packing boxes they will be about 1 and a half feet tall all stretched cropped ect fit in a box easy then after inspection reset up . And flip to 12/12 gives u 12 weeks to bud ur plants and dry and jar ....

Also if u pay power and when metre is read and it spinning fast as fck u gonna get busted holy shit that's 23 to 27 cent per kW man holy shit that's like 900 dollars extra on ur lecky bill Man U need to settle the fuck down or u gonna get fcking jailed man lol u need 100w per plant min 1 600w hps is heaps for a area of scrog about 1.5m by 1.5 metre u will yield very nice idea of a scrog is to use less light to grow more 3 600w light u would need some very fcking serious vent system to vent that hot air and pump in fresh air man I think ur plant died from heat stress is what it looked like 2 me from a quick glance how much pot r u trying to yield with 3 600w light I could yield 2 and a half pound I reakon depending on ur state laws hope ur in act
3 light u will get done for commercial growing I reakon
If u want more I for on Aussie laws about weed just ask Iam quiet learned on the subject
