TT im sorry to hear that on of the stems didnt bend correctly...
I've supercropped a lot in the past, it is a lot less worrying than it looks actually. Usually the stems I bend are nice and pliable.... I give them a good squeeze with my fingers, up and down for a few inches, then the stem just bends over without splitting.
This time, the stem was a bit stiffer, and I didn't squeeze it enough... so SNAP! The others, I used a pair of pliers to gently crimp the stem as I would before, and then a bit of finger work, before the bend over.... and they went fine.
No You Aint bro !!!!!!!!!................. mother nature got way's and means bro !!!
It is a heart break, the first time, when you think fuc....there goes me next smoke !!!!!!!!! untill 5 days later, she is up and steaming of a few ltrs !!!!!......................... moving back into the new light void............. scoffing it up !!
@Teetee That's a shame mate about the over bending, hopefully she will be okay,
Thanks Guys for your concerns but they are all doing well. There was NO wilting of leaves, and the next day, all the tops of the 6 supercropped stems were pointing up, and the side buds realigning to the light.
Today's pictures are for day 83, 30 days into Bloom. 3 days after supercropping.
This is Gorilla.... the bad bend is looking mental....
Pretty ragged, eh! You can see the flowers of the other main stem behind.
Despite my heavy handedness, the rest of that stem looks really healthy.......
Here's a close up of the top...
The other main stem I supercropped looks good as well. Soft focus fluffy flowers...
Here's a view of Gorilla's canopy. The 3rd supercropped stem is on the bottom right.....
Des Frans is also responding well....
Here's a better view of two of the main stems....
The PAKs weren't touched, and they are looking blooming lovely for 30 days!
PAK1 first...
... and PAK2...
Thats just the hectic supercroping shifted ya canna karma bruv !!!
Nah, Man, the supercropping, as you can see went well... I have dealt with worse breakages than that, it was just a shock at the time, cos it was the best stem on her, and all the time I was saying to myself, "do one of the other stems", but once I got started, that was that.
Lookin forward to when the Hammers exchange shirts at the end!
