its when you plant a seed in a party cup.. the regular red 16oz cups from party's(literally).. and you plant/veg/flower all in the same exact cup.. its to see who gets the biggest yeild/buds..

if i get my card im all in....ive been waiting to get my grow started for almost 3 months now..still no reply on card

I start all of my plants that way, they seem to do great until they reach about 6"-8". Then i transplant into the standard 3 gallon pots where they remain for the rest of their lives. Some people say to not transplant into the 3 gallon pots so early in life, but I have not seen any adverse affects.

i agree with you fig, early transplantation is said to be harmful, but i've never seen any ill effects... welcome!

Thanks, I'm glad to be a part of a cool online community. Another tip, when growing in a party cup style, make sure the sprouts have significant stem growth and height. I have found that the plants with leaves that are low to the ground are susceptible to fungus. The higher distance between the stem and the initial leaves is typically better. My personal rule of thumb is to keep the seeding light (a High output 150 watt Florescent) about 14 inches above the pot surface. This allows the seedlings to stretch away from the soil initially. Then, once the seedlings reach 2 inches tall, lower the light to 5 inches above the leaves to stop the stretching and in turn creating a very compact and heavy stem growth. I hope this helps.
