Gwe: Solo cup grow off : 2020

[homegrown]

Day 6. Final seed split and taproot, into coco. So iv got 1 GG#4 in Berger grow mix(bark,peat,organic mulch,perlite) 1 GG#4 in Canna Coco. 1 Quarter Pounder in Canna. 1 Hindu Kush in Canna and 1 Purple Ayahuasca (bag seed) Canna. Hindu Kush started out gangbusters but hit a wall..looks ok but shes dinky. Quarter pounder is cruisin right along. 1 GG#4 cant get its damn helmet off ffs...its on there pretty good, iv been giving it a drop of water on top a few times today. If no progress by tomorrow i might have to operate. Thought i cooked the Purple A ..paper towel got a bit dry so i drenched it and put it in a baggie. Its ALIVE!

[oldjarhead100]

I checked my paper towel this morning and it was bone dry ,I was trying to get one more seed to grow a tail but alas its not in the cards/seeds lol

[oldjarhead100]

The baby girls are doing fantastic and are ready for transplant normally I would put them in 1 gal pots but I want to put them in there forever homes, didn't get anything done in the cellar except I ran a cable from the computer room outside and along the bottom of the house and into my grow area ,now I can get wifi in the cellar tried those verizon pods but they were junk , I have to run a power line thats on all the time instead of shutting down with the lights

[DingusKhan]

I know some of us sing or play music for their plants. You're definitely first to give them internet access.

"didn't get anything done in the cellar except I ran a cable from the computer room outside and along the bottom of the house and into my grow area ,now I can get wifi in the cellar tried those verizon pods but they were junk" Yes many of the extenders are just that. I have had a gigabit Netgear Nighthawk for years, and just bought a second. I got a helluva deal on an open box Nighthawk for $50 on Amazon. I had to screw around doing a factory reset as the previous purchaser had set up a password, but it all worked out. I ran an ethernet cable to the other side of the house, and set up the new Nighthawk as an Access Point. I have beau coups wifi signal now over my entire 3.25acres. Such a deal!

Starramus picture a three story house shaped like a big L ,I have to go from the second floor at the top of L and go to the cellar the bottom of the L though 2 wood floors,and a bunch of walls ,the cellar walls are brick and field stone ,that being said I have an xfinity X1 wyfi it reaches the entire yard but it doesn't go though the bricks to well lol but alas I couldn't get it to work, I have to have my son check it out

[NickyChicks]

Off to a decent start... First pic is Saturday night, roughly 12hrs between pics

[DingusKhan]

That was so cool, scrolling through your pics, watching your seedling grow real fast!

[oldjarhead100]

heres a question I plan on planting the girls in there forever home tomorrow the coco is all set ,I have not directly planted into the final pots I usually do 1 gallon then put them in final pots , when there in 1 gallon pots I know how much water to give and how often but in the 3 gallon I cant give them 1/2 cup every couple of days well I guess I could ,the amounts will be off any suggestions

[SoOrbudgal]

OJ you talking about solo cup? Are you doing solo cup?

[Mr.furley]

I went right into the coco mix.

[oldjarhead100]

Budgal no this is for the grow I'm doing with the solo cup ,if i'm going to spend money on lights then I'm doing a grow lol

[Gingerbeard]

Say... uh... I see a lot of Solo cups growing with DWC into reservoirs. Don't roots grow out of the cup?

[JohnEmad]

Hope my drip system won't grow roots but we will see I suppose..Probably drop my one solo cup into the top of the 5 gallon pail fairly soon.

[DingusKhan]

The contest was over for me when I saw that bucket painted like a solo cup. Clear winner, that one. We don't stand a chance against a cup like that.

Day 3,

[DingusKhan]

Go Johnny Reb!

[oldjarhead100]

Lights are up and running I left them on overnight to heat the room up some,the light on the right has a bulb out but the new one should be here today

[OlderNOTwiser]

So if I get a carbon scrubber that big can I set it in the corner and have it work, too? ;-)

Maybe we need divisions for professionals and amateurs! More grows sitting right there than my entire history. Color me green with envy.

[Eliot Pryor]

Very nice set-up !! Going to get dank in there. I love the smell when I drive into my garage. I don't try to cover it up. Envy that. Good growing to you brother !!

[oldjarhead100]

my exhaust is about 5 feet from the end of the run and it blow outside MJ is legal so I quit worrying about using the filter, its virtually new does anyone need it , @Eliot you would be surprised no Dank smell at all Normally RH in room is under 50

[OlderNOTwiser]

I snapped a pic in the local apothecary of this card. I never read the inside but it seemed somehow appropriate. I may go back and buy it today and hang it in the tent.

[oldjarhead100]

thats great ,thanks for the chuckle

[SoOrbudgal]

Mr.furley I started one more white widow auto this a.m. is their a cutoff date for seed to poke thru medium? My other seed was a dud

[Doubledealing72]

If I remember correctly, there is only an end date. Sometime in April

[Mr.furley]

No cut off date to start SoOrbudgal

[oldjarhead100]

was reading light tutorials so I'm just checking to see what you all think ,in the picture those are 2 630 cmhs ,now for distance sake are they 1260 watts or 630 , At 630 I can have my lights 14 inches at 1200 its 16+ ,I should state that the travel distance of lights keeps each light over 4 plants , because of that fact I'm thinking 630 , also in picture are 11 pots 3 are only going to be there until the 2 best plants of a strain show themselves

[SoOrbudgal]

Doubledealing72 OKie DoKie then i'm still playing I got it soaked last night and in towel this a.m. with baggie sitting all puffed up about 3 ft. from the woodstove.

[OlderNOTwiser]

I guess I should at least show my entry...Seedsman White Widow FEM freebie.

[NickyChicks]

Looking good!!

[SoOrbudgal]

Thank you Mr.furley I'll be the tortoise in this race LOL

[SoOrbudgal]

Howdy all started a 2nd WW auto for the cup and a couple bud shots. I've done the final flush with molasses and my good well water about a gal. Now waiting maybe 4 days for the chop. Notice that 2nd pic is same strain according to pkg it came from but hairs were bright orange and other black cherry punch not so much. Smell heavenly, rock hard.

[FunkyButtLovin]

My mouth is watering now. Those look delicious!

[oldjarhead100]

I love the color My alaskan purple is not purple at all I'm so disappointed in it but I'm doing dark devil and thats a great purple strain ,love the bud holder to

[Mrblu]

Officially in cups

[Mr.furley]

Nice roots!
