Monster Bush

Discussion in 'Advanced Growing Techniques' started by greenisgood919, Dec 7, 2014.

  1. OK, maybe someone will find this interesting or has done what I am about to ask.
    I had a flowering plant (about 2-3 weeks of flower)  and cloned a cutting for giggles and to see how the monster-cropping (I believe it is called) worked out.  Well after the clone took hold, it was a very confused plant it seemed. But it eventually got itself together as you can see by image below.
     
    So this is a clone generating machine at this point in time and is very health I believe. It is in a 7 gal grow bag and gets 20 / 4   cycle
     
    So, has anyone else done this, and did you flower it?    I am wondering if I put this to 12/12, if that would be a good idea or not.

  2. did you just LST it for bushing? what other methods? and we'd have to see the stalk to give an opinion on whether or not to flower. maybe look into ScrOG'ing
     
  3. LST? what is that acronym?  Like I said, I was curious to see how a plant would behave from being cloned from a plant well into flowering. So I made a cutting from a flower that was about the size of a dime (about 3 weeks into flowering) and wanted to save the strain as I had no more seed.  I had never cloned from a plant in flower and wanted to confirm what I had read about the plant growing like mad once it got it's act together, which is seems to be the case.    I think you are right about ScrOG'ing as the plant would probably not be able to support all the flower nodes.
     
  4. Go ahead and flower it!
     
  5. You'll definitely need some type of support in flower once she packs on the weight. But yeah no real reason not to flower her.
     
  6. Isn't that called monster cropping when you clone a flower and switch it back to veg? Am I wrong?
