Hey guys, I Have this AKR thats Stretching SO bad. There are barley any leaves, what leaves are there are super small. Its close to twice the height of my other 3 and I feel if i Chop this one I can get the lights closer to my other 3 and make up for it there? Will this lady produce anything worth it? I have the Main cola and one side cola tied back im going to do the other 3 or 4 that are in the lights path. But is it worth it? should i just CHOP CHOP. Thanks guys I cant post a picture right now because i cant remember my damn password for my photobucket
lay the bitch down I'd like that bitch down and tie her up haven't you ever heard of a screen of green if you layer down flat all the side little buds will start growing up and getting bigger
either tie her down or tie sinkers on her to pull the top down. Or gently sqweeze the stem and bend her over. t6
But you guys think its worth actually keeping it ? I'm Gonna tie it down and give it a couple days then . I'm probably just gonna chop it down in the end . But I'll give her a chance . Never know edit: there is a chance ill actually get some decent buds off of this ? haha
wwboy id stunt it a lil perhaps....bend-bend-pinch -pinch......let em go fer whatever it takes.....seems like sativa dom and id just let her go on ...hate to toss something that could be real special...just my 2 pennies.
Well your other plants are doing well and are looking great dude.. Finally i get to see the pictures. You have been slacking. I love the different sizes. Anyways the bitch, looks like she is premature... has long way to go, compared to others. All of them, will finish at diffrent rates, because of sative, indica domin. Its looks like the Afghan Vs the Ruderelis genes. Afghan genes would be the long one, Im guessing, comparing to my plants. I would keep her, put her all the way in the corner, the whole pot in the corner, to give others more space. Let her fight and reach for that light. Seems like there is enough room for everyone. My 24 AKR's very all squeesed together and did fine. Like others said to tie her down, is a great idea. Bend her branches all the way to the pot, and tie em. Just make sure not to bend alot, to snap the stems. After few days the bud branches will perk up, reaching for lights, like they always been like that. I love MJ plants. If you are raising the lights just for her, then fuck her and tie her. If you like her so much, then raise all the other plants to her hight, with cinder blocks or something. Thats what I did with mine. and it was perfect. Shes just a slower runner, give her time. Nice job though, Thnx for pics. opcorn-2::coool:
I took some fishing line and sinkers and tied em down . She is gonna stay in the corner . Hopefully she starts to fill out soon or she's gone! And I'm not to familiar with supper cropping . But shouldn't that have been done in veg? And it's basically cutting the top off right ?
Yeah you don't usually wanna be cropping anything in flower. As for what it is, there's a page in the FAQ on it. I'd generally understood the term to mean cropping at the nodes rather than below them, but in this context I think he's referring to the whole gamut of techniques. http://forum.growkind.com/showthread.php?t=23817
Yup. That's Topping or FIMMing. Super cropping is bending or tying your plants into positions to create a canopy that best utilizes your light and allows the branches to mature more evenly.
My mistake, that's what I get for trying to respond to questions after working until 5:45 AM. RR's right. The fishing line sounds like a great idea. Hope it works out for you
