When you supercrop you basically damage the stem. lets say

________________ is a stem between nodes (new growth but not too new that squeezing will pinch it right in two) now in the center of that stem place 1 finger on top and one on the bottom and sqeeze your fingers together if you put a bit of pressure and you don't feel it squish with almost a crunch feeling try squeezing it on the sides. If the stem is hard to get to squish you can slowly squish a little bit and roll your fingers so that a small area is being twisted back and forth a little. it will eventually become really limp and very bendable. Always try squishing the stem before rolling.. Anyways After either rolled or feeling the squish the stem can be bent, twisted to wherever you want it and it will grow a hard knot where it was crushed and always stay in that position. You can do some amazing things with supercropping.

I'm sorry that my explanation is probably more confusing than you have heard yet lol.

That is exactly the information I needed! Thank you much!

I'm not FIMming or topping or supercropping right now, but if I do another grow I will have a very good plan, ready to go with these skills!

A few pics of the mothers. if you look at the left center you will see a fem that has been brutalized & suffering from it. (I had removed so many shoots from the plant that it shrank like 75% and had to be placed ontop of a few things so that what canopy it has left is near the light) (This plant will be one of the the special plants in my next journal). Def keep your eyes out for the new journal i am going to be creating!

All mothers have been being fed a normal nute solution of 17 drops of shultz 10-15-10 for the last 2 weeks.(to slow down there growth) Solution has been raised to 3 full droppers (%300 increase) and will continue for the next week at that rate to increase new shoot production for next journals clones).

A little piece of info on new journal that will be started shortly.

20 people will be chosen & a bubblelicious clone will be assigned to each of the 20 individuals.

Each of the 20 people will be shown 30-60 outdoor area's and they will choose where they wan't there plant.

once every week I will go out and perform whatever actions the 20 people wan't done with there individual plants & take photo's. (This includes topping, fim, lst. hacking etc within reason). (I will not kill a plant because its remote grower want's..) No more than 20 minutes will be given to perform actions on each plant.

Any plant that Naturally dies or has been eaten will be replaced.
Any plant that is found or busted will not be replaced.

If a remote grower does NOT get his weekly instruction to me before i go out for that week the plant will not be touched until the following week.

I know that this is a pretty lame concept, but growing outside can be rather boring. Allowing others to decide what is done with a plant seems like a fun idea & possibly a good learning experience.


CHEMICALS WILL NOT BE USED.

Bag plants will also be grown and anyone will have the ability to vote on how these plants will be grown/treated.

More information and rules will be provided when the thread has actually been started. Above is just a basic concept and not the start of the actual thread so please do not ask for a remote plant.

5 male clones have been moved outside. They will be my honey oil makers while waiting on my SOG to finish up.

Did you only use 4 cfls the whole time?

as LimitedTimer said i used 10 26w 5300k lights for the mothers, I am positive i could have gotten away with a lot less but considering that this is the first time I have grown the bubblelicious strain & wanted guaranteed productive mothers i wen't with x10. I will be dropping to probably only x4 or x6 when I narrow the area down to just 2 mothers.

I have chosen a indica & sativa pheno of the bubblelicious strain. This may change depending..

Should be interesting. Yep, that girl was very nice <and her sisters too> LOL on the perspective...


Quick question, how do you create those custom links you made for your signature over just the plain shortcut like mine? IM me how to do it if it's not too much trouble. Thanks, slabhead

Ok Screw any males & any possible males the 1 remaining male and questionable 2 plants were removed and killed. Now there are only 4 mothers, all females with hairs showing. I have had enough with all these damn male clones.

Ya 2/7 is empty. thats like 16 plants. But its all good, it will fill up eventually. Nah i'm probably not going to flower the mothers that I am not going to keep. Probably just turn them into some oil. Of course I just may put a vote up in the flowering thread and see if people would like to see 5/7 area SOG & 2/7 a SCROG :p Then i guess i could flower one of the females that is destined to be killed :p


Males

I have had enough with them! If i end up making some seeds i'll just hermy a bud or 2

Mostly just rooted clones. ALL MALE. lol. Yep taking mass clones before sex is apparent can be messy and time consuming. Wouldn't be a problem but so many clones were being taken for a while that mixxups & miss labeling is causing chaos.



2 now dead males.
