Solo cup autoflower grow competition late 2020!

[NickyChicks]

Twist my arm... I'm in, just say when and I'll make room for her 😅.

[CaptainWiese91]

Then we need to take a a vote 😅
Sep 1 I still have 25 plants and have no more room 😂

[NickyChicks]

25, 26, what's the difference lmao. Or if there was just a specific end date, like have your entry submitted by xx/xx/2020

[CaptainWiese91]

It’s just my calculations 😅
4 weeks is much when talking about new grow 😁

[CaptainWiese91]

Can’t we increase the pot from 500ml to 1 L ? 😄

[SoOrbudgal]

NickyChicks Cause lots of us have other grows going so time in Sept. won't work it's harvest outdoor at that time but for me it most likely won't be LOL my outdoor will finish in a greenhouse so it's going till the end of Oct. but i can start auto seed grow in Oct. if it's more helpful to outdoor growers. Not gonna be much holiday travel on our end.

[CaptainWiese91]

Agree with you Nicky.
It would actually be better just with a end date.
But again. Still if you have the end date, it’s One man personally chooses to pick the strain. If I have and end date, I wouldn’t pick a 120 days auto. But a 70-80 days strain, also thinking about the pot size in this challenge.

But generally I agree

Lol@SoOrbudgal! If you're getting same weather as up here, your outdoor grow is going to finish as Christmas trees! Omg, it's pouring cats, dogs, pigs and a few chickens. I'll try to keep this shit up here :P

[swegrow]

NickyChicks I agree, lets start whenever and have 31/12/2020 as a finish date!

[SoOrbudgal]

Yep let's set some size of container, I've never grown in a solo cup other than seedlings.

[Smerft85]

I think a solo cup would cause massive root bind.
Why not do a 1 gallon max pot size, auto only, any grow medium and method, end date and submission due 1/1/21?

Keeps things simple, plenty of time, and plenty of control variables to make things a bit more fair to those that would have to order seeds to participate in the fun.

[CaptainWiese91]

1 gallon is much better, never grown a plant in 500ML before

[JDU]

That's the challenge 🚜😊

[swegrow]

Ok, so should we do a 1 gallon container challenge instead? Lets set the end date to new years eave and folks can start whenever they want. Sounds good to everyone? Im in for whatever, just enjoying the community and the fun of sharing grows, pictures and get inspired by you guys!

[CaptainWiese91]

Agreed 👍🏻

[Eliot Pryor]

Ok. You guys get it together and I'll give it a go. Is this a one gallon pot ?

[SoOrbudgal]

There is 128oz. to a gallon my folgers grow holds 51oz of soil. Mine did fine had no issues much at all with those. Eliot Pryor the bottom will tell you most the time how big it is from there i gotta look it up on conversion table. swegrow just make a post and say the rules of starting, how big the container a gallon or less? and the end date.

[Eliot Pryor]

Cool I have one of those deep coffee containers. I think last time the end date was when they sent in pics for judging. Finish date for harvest has to be up to the plant.

[swegrow]

For us overseas I find that a US Gallon is 3.7 litres. (A UK Gallon on the other hand is 4.5 litres.. If you wonder )

So a 3.7L/ 1 gallon pot it is and we start NOW and the one with the highest yield off of 1 single plant by 31/12/2020 is the proud winner and the growmaster-extra -ordinaire! Good luck to yall!

Lets start a new thread folks, or rename this one if that is possible.

[dphipps1020]

That's why I'm going to use the Cheese XXL. I figure I need a bigger plant so I have a chance here 😂

[CaptainWiese91]

I’m thinking the opposite 🤣
I don’t want a too “big” auto for that small pot. This will be so fun 😁😁

[Smerft85]

That's what she said!

[dphipps1020]

We need a new post swegrow

[swegrow]

Hey! Something went wrong with the whole internet! Or the forum crashed, or something! Had a new thread going on but everything seems to be back to outdated content. I started a new thread for the 1 gallon auto comp
