Gwe: Solo cup grow off : 2020

[Gingerbeard]

One of the five Purple Hulks will be planted at a later date.

[Woodsman67]

These are the 2 new growths on my revegging Gold Lemon that will be put into cups later today. One will be seed mother, one will just be a beautiful flower in a cup. Unless I kill them. Have fun peeps!

[DingusKhan]

Huh, so the new growth comes right out of a left over bud. Very cool photo. How long ago did you harvest her?

[Woodsman67]

I dont remember exact date, but it was in November I think. It's part of my first documented grow. I monster cropped it in stages over 2 weeks and really didn't keep track. Sadly. I'm hoping using my posts to keep better track of when and what I do. Any plant that is extraordinary gets revegging and cloning then reflower

[DingusKhan]

I'm planning on keeping one of these GSC after harvest to try it. But I haven't even flipped it yet.

Imo go look back at your journal.

2-Fast Buds G14 & 2-Fast Buds GSC

I’ve had these seeds since April 2018 so we’ll see what germinates and go from there as to which seed I select for the challenge.

[D.A.A.S.69]

Good Luck, old bud, I forgot and just now dropped, this morning 2 auto seeds, a Blueberry Haze from NewGuy420, and a Jack the Ripper from Zambezi seeds.in a cup of water.
I ain't expecting much, lol, but it's gonna be fun watching everyone's progress.

Grand Daddy Purple dropped after midnight

[starramus]

Planted the last of my new420guy seeds a Purple Maze Kush. Have gotten lots of males from new420 including feminized males. Is that such a thing? Last grow 2 vigorous male PMKs of course they are regulars. Didn't want to waste a good seed on this endeavor, but at least know what strain and genetics I have here maybe. I planted in a Rapid Rooter which went into Happy Frog all placed in a peat pot in case something comes up I want to actually grow. The peat cup will make for a quick and easy mission abort! It's all in a Subway water cup roughly 14 oz. I believe. Have a happy, and better than last new year.

How the hell did I miss Klaatu? Does it shoot a laser out of it's eye? And an honorable mention for the star chart. And an honorable mention for the little high-tech toilet on your lamp base.
Where is the 'honorable mention' button?

[starramus]

that's an Apple iPad charger plugged into the desk lamp. nothing out of the ordinary.

the celestial globe was gift from a my daughter this winter solstice. It actually rotates via photon power/ magnets. quite pricey for a nick knack. https://www.movaglobes.com/constella...hoCztgQAvD_BwE

remember these three words Klaatu Barada Nikto! https://youtu.be/G5MHNvOVl8Y

On a cold winter day in New England, this historic thread is sustaining and enlivening me. What a colorful coven of rascals convened with their wit and wisdom for our education and entertainment!

I'm reading this little bit of GWE history for the first time and just offering a Thank You to all who took the time to participate and share your thoughts and your delightful weirdness.

Well done all.

-Grouchy
PS:@Starramus: "klaatu barada nikto!!!"

[Canuck147]

Ah...........the possibilities............

Good luck - Bon Chance - to all my fellow contenders - pretenders - spectators - in this endeavor.

Happy New Year to all of us.

[OlderNOTwiser]

Without the instruments of bondage I'd have been tricked. Nice job on your "Kodak moment".

[Gingerbeard]

I would have bought it but you don't have holes in your cup. Tsk-tsk.

[Canuck147]

I'm not trying to sell - and the holes are in the cup.

[SoOrbudgal]

i'm still practicing with posting so if this shows up I don't want to freak you out but I was doing auto transplant this a.m. and my GDP auto from newguy420 ( non fem. seeds so it's a crap shoot) It's been in a veg. tent for nearly 4wks and I thought it looked like it was flowering but closer look and a circle of balls

[DingusKhan]

I don't see any balls in that picture. Are you sure?

[FunkyButtLovin]

It looks like balls coming out of the top and they're definitely on the first node down.

[DingusKhan]

Oh yeah, there it is. Good eye FunkyButtLovin

[SoOrbudgal]

OK all you here and Gingerbeard don't you make fun of my kitties I present you with my simple cup hope my single seed pops. Of course I may embellish the cup a bit along the way

[starramus]

That White Widow auto from new420 should be good to go. I've grown a couple of them.

[starramus]

Now I need to stick to my resolution, and get my ass out there on the treadmill!

[DingusKhan]

YAY! Pictures!!

[starramus]

Too bad we can't transgender these the other way.

[Gingerbeard]

You want me to be nice to your decorative ornament kitties? Seriously? Have we met? Alas! They are the perfect cats! They don't poop, pee, puke, scratch, want to touch me, or purr. I wouldn't feel as bad about putting decorative ornament kitties in a shoebox and into the closet. Probably not bad at all. See? I found positives!
What's her name? Kat-pow? Kitty Cup? Solo the Cat?
What do you suppose would happen if you put a layer of kitty litter on top of the cup?
See SoOrbudgal I'm being thoughtful, non-violent, respectful. Downright positive!

[BaccaRacca]

Seeds I ordered for this have not come in yet. I have a White Widow (unknown sex) and a couple of Amnesia Trance Feminized I tossed into the system.

[Gingerbeard]

There sure is a lot of White Widow being grown. You folks get your own sub-duel.

[Gingerbeard]

The Four Solo Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
The plastic tube sticking out of the holes, and on the board, are straws I slit up one side. I jammed the straws into soil to cram in to half an inch on one end. The straw is about 3" long. A seed was dropped in the half inch end, making sure point down and filling the last half inch. Basically making a real small pot to sprout the seeds. I had already sprouted seeds on paper towel and was going to do the same sort of thing. The root would have wound up getting crushed. The little virgins got sacrificed.
The purpose of the straw pot is to get the seedlings to grow out the hole in the cap on each end of the cup. Growing straight out the holes would have been too much tucking and sprout touching. What I'm hoping is the seed end will scoot itself out the end and start growing up. And hopefully the root will make same-same and head out and down. The seed is on the inside/soil side/toward-the-middle-side/center of the FoSoHoApo. How I work this into my tent with my next auto and Solo will need a diagram and bar chart. Perhaps... something else...The FoSoHoApo will have to remain directly under the LED for success.
The end is nigh!

[Mr.furley]

Very original. Going to be cool if all 4 sprout.

[Gingerbeard]

It would be cool if one sprouts.
I don't know why this wouldn't work in a right-side-up orientation. I also don't know why anyone would want to try a straw pot.

19hrs = 2-4-2

The one with the larger tail went it to the cup and is dedicated as my champion.

Back on top of the light for the night.

[homegrown]

Ok, 2 of 4 seeds cracked while soaking in water(put them in solos tonight 1in coco and 1 in Berger grow mix). other two(GG#4) are now in paper towels in baggies on my router. Went back to work on my set-up. Here's pic's of my Solo Cups evolution this past month. and my final set-up!

[billyboy]

Snaps for that cool rig! We are going to need good support so they don't tip over. And I think a fairly constant feed will be needed. Will show mine when the beans get into the cup.

[homegrown]

hey oldjarhead100, its a peat,bark,organics,perlite mix i picked up at a nearby grow shop here in Canada(using in my current grow). Only thing available at the time..comes in a bail like peat moss. The large grow-ops around me are using it in massive quantities in their greenhouses. Thought i'd give it a try.. I have 2 fiber pots with Berger mix ,rinsed and cal/mag'd And Two with Coco coir/perlite rinsed and cal/mag'd. Both look quit similar(except for the odd coco hair) BUT..it appears the Berger mix retains moisture longer than the coco. Price wise, Berger is half the price of coco coir. So for this new grow, im doing 2 photos and 4 autos..I'll do 1 photo and 2 autos in berger and the same in coco. compare final product.

[Mr.furley]

Nice job on the cup holder.
