Pre registration for the greatest party cup grow off of 2018

@whitebb2727
I had a question about the flowering rule.
If someone shows pistils on one plant is that when they start counting for all plants?
Is it a 14 day clock from the 1st pistil?
What if one plant starts a sooner than the other plants like Budzbuddha.
What are his options.
If he chooses not to enter the plant that flowered 1st. Does the clock reset to the date the other plants show sex?

Give or take. I'm not a hard ass. It was just a guideline. I'm cool for waiting for all to be into flower.

OK here is the weekly update pic:


All five plants growing strong. No sign of sex yet.

Little update -

Basically down to 3 dominate plants ... Other 2 are growing but will just usher them to the bleachers. Bumping the RED spec has added more growth .... The 2 sister plants gave reached the same height as my leading cup.

Still doing the Dr. Earth feed ...... (3/3/3) Liquid Solution with like 3-4 drops of CALMAG as that is the only ingredients not listed on bottle. I really like this stuff just stinks like shit.
Peat dries about every two days ... So it's feed / water / feed for each week ( 6 days time ) , so it balances out what I have to do every two days.

Noticed some leaf differences now between them - some of the old daddy blueberry is poking his indica trait on them.

12/12 cycle actually surprises me - I never ran anything straight 12/12 from seed.
I think I may do a run with gallon bags ( like a SOG ) ......

Details :

Medium : ( Don't laugh , this shit works great ) - Lowe's Veg / Garden mix . ( peat base )
Nutes : Dr. Earth Liquid Solution
Ph : 6.5 ( tap water )
Quantum lights : 420 Watts

Beauties!

ALl if mine suck haha, they are tiny as fuck, I used new soil for the first time and they hate it, I’ve watered twice since this started....I decided to transplant them all to new media and almost all of them were close to death with only a few roots remaining... I have faith that I will make an epic comeback k though

In case anyone wonders - No unicorn piss

Haters always talk about this " RETAIL " stuff , but I have used this OVER
FFOF / Sunshine mix. It performs solidly for me with little amending ( perlite ) .

It works like a champ in my airpots ... As it only holds so much moisture and I cannot overwater whether in cup or pot. It is very lightly PRECHARGED but it acts like a seedling mix . I like things simple and this has been a good choice for me.


Mephisto plants ... Shitty camera - the red tint is from the far red lights in tent .

Beautiful!
1st time I saw your plants it was scary and intimidating. Now I can handle it lol.
It's the green thumb, not the soil that matters most.
Same with the lights vs green thumb but there is no way I'm going there.

I've burnt my thumbs countless times. Some good memories associated with it.
But the only thing keeping me in is my big green hands and I can spot someone with the gift.

Here r my Lil ones. I took this pic Friday. Lights already out

Update pics. My poor little girls are getting better, but still lagging. Over watering/over nutes took it's toll on them.
And just look at this mongloid mofo. It has a single leaf on top thats growing like a funnel, and no growth node up top. You can see it has basically topped itself and the 2 growth nodes below are growing out. I think I will name it Cleatus.

The other 2 I have going:


And the last one is in hydro after I tipped over the cup it was in and the plant had come out of the coco.

Here's my weekly update. Girls are doing OK-ish. I have never grown in soil before... I have been all "DWC bitches" (nod to GML show). I think I know which two I will keep alive, but waiting to see sex.

Sorry to hear that. I've been dealing with back problems lately.

Cheers for the good wishes, as I say this has all gone faster than expected but, one way or another, it'll come good because I'll never let the bastard grind me down.

Being a stubborn old bastard has it's advantages, so I will be back when this is controlled.

Sorry for your pain.
Didn't want to give a like to your previous posts because of the situation but I like this post especially this.
"Being a stubborn old bastard has it's advantages, so I will be back when this is controlled."
Good Luck!

Last time I showed all 5 plants was 7 days ago on day 12.
Today is day 19 I'll post them shortly.
I was taking pictures in the same format I used on day 12 post #815
For the second set of pictures today I had them in the 5 ring olympic pattern.
I see a fungus gnat hovering between two of the cups.
My instinct was to grab it but the possibility of overturning some cups would have been huge and for a moment after I safely moved the cups away I thought I lost it.
I won with a clap. Nicely preserved on the tip of a wooden tooth pick for pics with the digital viewer.

I'm on day 19.
Last post #815 of all 5 plants was on day 12.
None are getting watered today.
#1 was watered 2 days ago.
#2 was watered 3 days ago. Almost watered #2 today but will do it tomorrow.
#3 was watered yesterday.
#4 was watered yesterday.
#5 was watered yesterday.

Color is improving, I thought some were a bit of a lighter colored green until recently.

There is an arrow pointing to a small blemish on #2.
Been there for a while. Checked early on for the dreaded black dots which I have seen before lol.

I'm using a spray bottle now to water from the top. Takes a little time but it is the best way I can think of without creating to much run off.

4 is still my favorite girl!
