The Original 16oz Party Cup Comp

I was in the last comp and harvested 5 plants.
I'm running some practice cups now.
One in new soil, one no till. Both are healthy and are 8" and 9 inches tall at 22 days from germination.
They should yield higher than my other 5 plants that I topped just when they began to flower.
Only bummer is just like my other comp plants that I topped, these are beginning to flower on day 22. I need to find a better strain that does not flower so quickly under 12/12.
One thing is great. I started my comp plants under 400 W MH and I was all over the place with the light because I was trying to maximize growth. I'm relaxed now and this time not being topped and being under 600 W Hortilux I think they will both break my 1st time solo cup grow of 9 grams.
This is today before getting water.
:peace:

An oz is easy in a cup just as long as you don't stress them to flower super early, stunt the roots, or top too late when they start blooming loosing the bulk of your yield. Set and forget is probably the safe approach. Aside from genetic selection if you really wanna put that much into a cup comp :hump:

I see this as pure led bigotry.
What happened to all this spread the love shit?
I mean if you want to promote led and get more people to use them why not allow other light sources? I mean I myself really entered the led thing by winning your prizes from you with an inda-gro induction :lol:
Only thing the "led only" rule is doing is making small pathetic plants and led synonymous :P

Wrong strain for such a comp!
Get a PurePowerPlant from Nirvana, a DutchDragon from Paradise Seeds or some NevilsHaze seeds from Greenhouse. The first two will become big, really big. The latter would probably grow for ever and become incredible big but would be really difficult to support her so that she does not fall over in such a small party cup, lol!

Yeah! I screwed up a lot of ways in my 1st solo cup grow. Learned a lot.
I topped at day 19 or something like that on my comp cups and I have to see how plants do that are not topped.
They are off to the side of my flowering girls. My plants in the other comp started flowering at 6 1/2 inches and stretched to 11 1/2". These 2 at 8 and 9 inches now and have at least 4 weeks to grow larger in the stretch.

Ok, I don't mean to cause controversy here, but this was found next to the pH up in the grow room belonging to @HydoDan . It all makes so much sense now.

Hopefully someone is testing these contestants for PEDs!


Kindly take all his votes and send them my way. That's the only fair thing to do.
I'm still laughing over this one! Classic...

There were also some dead kittens in there, too, but I can't bring myself to post those pictures.

Oh the humanity.
@HydoDan , did you see the rest of my evidence of your evilness?

And since there is apparently no testing for PEDs, I know what my next contestant will get in her nutrients. Dianabol, trenbolone acetate and testosterone - That's what! She will we a manly, angry bitch of a plant, but she will be HUGE! (And hairy with a deep voice)

Hmm! That sounds to me you already have won an LED light but you rather like to complain about the rules instead to use it..?
That's bigotry too, my friend!

Hopefully she will not turn into a male with a tiny little cock and shrinking balls, lol!

You gotta be careful when using testosterone just a bit too much and you'll get a hermie..
Then all the drama of a full blown gender identity crisis.. Therapy is expensive!
