Thats a great idea.. Also if clones are restricted would growing from seed.. then takign a clone from the seedling to continue grow be permitted? After all it WAS started from seed in 16oz cup.

no. why not just grow from seed to finish rather than being gay and takin a clone. plus its still classifies as a "CLONE".

Well yeah.

Rule #5 Have to use some sort of soil, no hydro.
If you hydra you can just have the roots hanging out the bottom of the cup and have a fucking monster plant. How fair is that to someone growing in soil?


Anyway, I wanted to grow in a 16oz cup ever since I saw 16oz cup for flower + veg (amazing!)

I recieved my Bubblelicious and Northern Light from Nirvana, I am germing 2 seeds of each strain, I'll be putting one of each in 16oz cups.

The only thing I can say is that if I get females in the 16oz cups and no females from the other few seeds I will start then they will be pulled from the cups and be made my resident mother of that strain.

to many rules.

why not the only rule be: you have to grow within the cup. that's it. seed, clone, leaf as long as it stays within the cup. hydro, soil, plugs, pellets as long as it stays WITHIN the cup. flashlights, grow lights, sunlight whatever you got as long as it stays within the cup. make it simple and wide open. you will have a better competition.

I agree too, many rules. We typically love to complicate things.
I like what FDD has to say, and the kiss attitude...one rule rocks!!

It dosent matter all the differences amongst the grow styles chosen. Just publicly keep everyone informed as to how you'll proceed. This way everyone will come out a winner, I may choose to mimmick your grow because of the aspects that appealed to me, while someone else may choose to mimmick someone elses grow for reasons that appealed to him. It'll be educational for sure!

you guys should do something totally different...16 oz. cups is played out...why not see what kind of yield you can get out of a 4 oz. cup? now that is a challenge...also like FDD said cup size should be the only rule...

how about an old shoe or boot. i've seen boot grows that were rather nice.

I am glad you guys are on the same page with me. I have a buddy with the same size grow room as I have and we have competitions to see who can get the best yield or the the best "nug". Nug's are judged by our peers on weight, density, size, and quality. The nug submitted for review is judged and the winner gets an oz from the other persons grow. No ridiculous rules, just grow what you can.

I like the idea of the 16 oz cup, but as long as it stays in the cup, why does it matter what medium? Restricting everything limits people creativity and limits the amount that we can learn as a community from this experiment.

I think the reason they wanted to use seeds only is so that everyone was starting from the same point.If they allowed clones, then some ppl may be having a slight head start due to their clone being further ahead rootwiseor something. The thing is they said you can only do one cup- no starting 10 looking for a female- so I think alot of those guys burned a fem seed....
