[oldjarhead100]

After seeing Johns plant you all can chuckle at my tiny one

[Canuck147]

I really had to zoom in to see it - hehehe - mines not much bigger. Glad I only grew 1.

[oldjarhead100]

me to great fun but not again for me lol

[Farmall]

Shit. That’s like saying look at that ugly baby....there’s no ugly babies... your good. Especially nice color

[Canuck147]

OH NO. It's happening - she's getting top heavy - air circulation almost blows her over.

[JohnEmad]

So that's brick weed? Heavy duty

[Canuck147]

'Brick weed? I don't live in Mexico. Nor is it the 70's anymore.

[Nute]

Nice job Canuck147. Eh 😜🤪

[alltatup]

Y'all doin a fantastic job!!! They are so cute!!

[Greenlivin]

JohnEmad We’re coming for you...

Still very healthy and happy. During the stretch she was doing an 1” a day. I think we’re all done with that now, and time to start getting fat. Total height is 14.5”. I trimmed up the bottom nodes today so we can get some fat buds up top. Hope to finish right around the closing date.

Love that first pic

[Farmall]

That really is a pretty plant.... if I had seen it in a nursery, I’d buy it

[Greenlivin]

Thanks Farmall!

Hi all,

New to the forum, and happened to start my first grow on 1/5/20. Inadvertently I seem to be doing a solo cup challenge on my own (I did not transfer my plants in time and I am sure they are root bound now). Anywho, just thought I’d drop some pics of what I’ve got, even if I’m not necessarily able to compete. Each week has been a learning experience and while I’ve made mistakes, I think a few of my plants are doing well!

I’m getting ready to flip this week, one plant has shown as a female already with many pistils. Delayed on the flip since I’ve used incorrect lighting, no nutrients until week 5, and these mistakes have delayed growth. I don't know if I’ll make the deadline, but it’s fun nonetheless.

[NickyChicks]

Welcome! What strain or strains are you growing there?

[Billyblastafuc]

Hi! All are bag seed, 1 is animal cookies, 1 is purple passion, and the other two are undetermined. Hard to tell from the previous pics but one of the undetermined seeds had severely in turning leaves to start, which fell off. This caused a topping so I have two main colas on that plant, but overall it’s been stunted throughout. All four seedlings started on 18/6 lighting under my countertop light which was unsurprisingly in effective. Bought an led light at that time. Then at 4 weeks i decided to buy nutrients. Went with the fox farms three pack. so overall I’ve Done a piss poor job of preparing and doing it right. Overall cost is only $60 + electricity so far. ive got two at 17” 1 at 16” and the other at 13-14”

[oldjarhead100]

Billy welcome if these are bag seed then you might have a male in the first blurple light picture on the right hand side ,I see something not sure what but I would check her to see if she has balls ,those little white things at the base of the fan leafs, hope I'm wrong just had to let you know good luck

[Greenlivin]

Whoah.... My girl grew 3.5” in between now and my post yesterday! How the heck is that possible in a solo cup?!?

[Canuck147]

Picture day outside for 2 girls - both around 6 0 days old. Big girl is - Maui - sativa dominant. Teeny weeny is 16 inches and Maui is 32.

[oldjarhead100]

The solo cup is doing fantastic (so is other one) ,I really like the first side by side

[SoOrbudgal]

Outstanding cup

[NickyChicks]

Just about a month since the switch, starting to get a little frosty. Bent a couple of the tops to even the canopy, still have some ties on there to help spread the light.
Only one month left, I'm excited to see everyone's plants at the finish!

[homegrown]

Out for a water and to re-arrange the tent. She's showing some nice flowers..

[oldjarhead100]

nice ,looks like a couple of nice kolas , I figured all of the solo plants would be a lot more stunted but I was way wrong great job

[JohnEmad]

great job. I agree, so many great looking plants in solo cups.

[SoOrbudgal]

LOL I love this homegrown you guys and ideas just great

[JohnEmad]

Trichs on the smaller solo cup girls.
Close to ready.

[Obi-Wan]

Day 65 for the G14 and she’s just doing her thing.

[SoOrbudgal]

Obi-Wan that's looking great I've really enjoyed seeing these tricks great job.

[DingusKhan]

Hi kids! What a fantastic grow this has been, this is so much fun and a great learning experience, I may continue to keep doing it on the side. Maybe in a similar sized small container, less tippy.

Great White Auto is very tall, and looks like she's getting close. The trichomes are starting to get a little cloudy, and most of the fan leaves have shriveled up. But then, she hasn't been very happy. Even though she has been in straight Ocean Forest, her leaves have always looked a little yellow and spotty, like Calcium deficiency, and started dying a little early even though I'm feeding her the same as her sister in coco. Her description on New420Guy says she's supposed to go 7-8 weeks.

SuperDense is not as mature or tall, but happier and healthier looking than Great White, even though she is in coco and getting fed the same as GreatWhite in Ocean Forest.

Mango is stretching, and starting to grow puff-ball baby buds. Her roots are not quite solid white, but getting close to root bound. I hope she can hold out for 4-5 more weeks.

[oldjarhead100]

thats a great picture showing the root ball

[SoOrbudgal]

Man Dingus those are " straight up beautiful " that's looking tight in that cup i'm sure you can pull this off though. Hmm SuperDense looks like she may get fatter. Damn we got great weather right now. In the 60s feels like May?

[DingusKhan]

Thanks OJH and Budgal. I'm glad I did this one in a clear cup, The roots sure don't mind the light, even a little green algae growing on them. Inspite of the cup, this is one of the healthiest plants I've ever grown. I love this strain!

[Mr.furley]

30 days left to get it done.

[SoOrbudgal]

Very nice manifold LOL i'm getting such a kick looking at these. Heck you may need to support it so it won't fall over or it may just super crop itself? Pretty little puff balls.

[Doubledealing72]

Today is day 70 for the Gorilla Glue, or as I'm now calling it, the Chunky Monkey. She is looking very healthy and happy.

I was very concerned when I started this competition that the plant would get rootbound, or that it would dry up too fast. But this little challenge surprised me. The auto took to her surroundings, and while she has dried up faster than the others, has never seemed to complain.

In fact, she is probably the healthiest looking plant I've ever grown.

Cant wait to smoke her to see if she tastes better than her sibling did!

[SoOrbudgal]

She sure is healthy

[Farmall]

Hey Doubledealing72 do we have too much of a fixation Ben and Jerry’s ? Chunky Monkey? I’ve changed the Black Cherry punch to Cherry Garcia.

[Doubledealing72]

Well now that you say that, I think we do! 😂

[Canuck147]

Filling out

[JohnEmad]

super nice plant Canuck. So healthy n thick..

[homegrown]

ooooh, she looks neat Canuck147. well done!

[Gingerbeard]

Oh my god! Seriously. Why did I ever freaking try?
When all is said and done, a lot of you people are going to have to dish on what you did. Still no holes in that cup, that we can see.
