it's true, i'll admit it. i am using 23 cents of MG to grow the party cup girls

Ha! It clearly says 8 not 9....(like turning F to A+)


Not bad after 24hrs from sprout, they all lost their helmets, now is time to idenitfy these individuals sexual idenity, supra seems to be in the lead, hyroot struggling, hehe.

I stepped her up to 300 umoles for the last two days and she's gettin with the program,leaves pointing up.

Update 3 - Day 11..

Thick stalk.....low vertical profile......its got to be blue.....

fine, since we're dropping pictures again, here's my big girl. I have her labeled as "Hothead"... She's a little more focused on making strong roots than she is on making leaves that look right:

@KineBoisin420
This is why I'm worried about your flood cups:

This started out as a trial of a DIRT top fed drain to waste/auto feed solo-cup rig.... I didn't realize how goddam strong those roots can be, and I forgot to check the drain holes on the bottoms of the cups... My wifey calls this my "terra-ponics" system now.... GOOD LUCK SIR!

Yup thaTs why we should enforce some picture taking for most contestants.

Thats definitely the risk I'm taking with my entries, this round. But, no risk, no reward. And its all in good fun.

I drilled a few small holes in the bottoms only, which are stronger plastic than the sides, and placed garden bed mesh on the bottoms of the cups, so we'll see how they hold up.

We do take pictures, every week. I document mine pretty well. Hope you all do too.

Have these been good enough, or do you all want something with a better camera? I was waiting until they got bigger before I bothered to do so....don't want to piss anyone off though!!

Well my girls are showing their sexy parts and I am going to pick the Original Bubblegum to be my final entry. She is growing the most consistent of all of them, has the best side branching and is pretty happy all around. Just hope she puts out some fire now.
Will do a group shot since I am not going to kill the other competitors, wanna see what they have to offer, and will take individual shots of the Bubblegum for each update from here on out.
The pistils

The cup

The competitor

The group shot

Just a little side note, in my next update I will be moving the plants from their current location to their final home. Gotta sign the lease on saturday and start moving stuff shortly thereafter. I raised this issue of moving in the registration thread and no one said squat so any objections now can sit on it and spin
That is all

Where are they? They're so small, I can barely make them out.

I do believe the Ninja Turtles have thrown down the gauntlet
Only A-game cups will compete in this comp.No amount of show and pageantry,half naked chicks,fancy purpose made lights or sophisticated hydro setups is gonna help ....
and I still have Spidey,Supes and Batstie to sex and choose from!
Pics are from 2days ago,since then I think BATMAN might be female too!So I'm still in with 4 cups.I will say that if the Superman cup is f I will choose him as my comp cup.
As some might know I've had a bit of bad luck with my cups the past two comp...BUT not this time!!It's on losers!!











.....all in good funGOOD LUCK!!

By the way @mc130p,I am using $3 bags of potting soil from Dollar General....Does that give me the advantage or disadvantage?
