What exactly is pinching and how is it accomplished? From what I can see from youtube is that it is the same as topping but you use your fingers to cut the top. Correct?

Pinching is simply squeezing a branch until you crush the inside without bending or tearing the outer lining. It will slow down the growth allowing other lower branches to catch up to it. Eventually it will form a knuckle or knot which allows more water and energy to flow out to the growth tip.
I was similarly puzzled by this expression and have previously asked about it also. But I agree with Rexer, awesome explanation! And useful too as I need to do supercropping for stealth reasons, but I will also look to employ 'pinching' in an attempt to rein in canopy growth especially during stretching.Pinching is simply squeezing a branch until you crush the inside without bending or tearing the outer lining.

Yes. It's just another term for topping. Depending where you live. Some say topping others say pinching but it's the same exact thingIsn't that just supercropping?
