Gwe: Solo cup grow off : 2020

[oldjarhead100]

thats why I did 3 seeds 2 in 3 gal pots and 1 solo cup ,I knew they were going to be tiny girls due to being root bound lol

 

[Rwise]

And now it begins,, this is the part I had concerns with, I am watching to see what I can learn here!
Good luck to all!

oldjarhead100 On the 23rd I started 10 more plants. Just can't waste this one as it is looking so prospective.

If you had another Amnesia Lemon Kush seed I would say maybe just start that seed in a larger pot for a good amount of harvest and keep this one going for the comp.

I do have 2 more ALK seedlings going, but I'd rather grow than play. I just can't handle wasting a good plant.

 

[starramus]

The larger seedling is the reluctant helmet head that finally snapped out of it, and is following the growth pattern of her mutant mother. She's definitely freaky deaky.

I'd be more worried about not having drainage holes, can't you take a clone.

 

[Mrblu]

Coming along. You say bondage, I say potsai.

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

How about one of your own to learn hands on with us? I have an extra Alaskan Purple clone in a solo cup I'd like to donate that is small but well started now, cut Jan. 1st as per the rules and sorta documented in the clone along. I don't think there would be any rule violation and I doubt anyone here would be upset with another participant. Would this be ok Mr.furley ?

 

[Mr.furley]

Anybody is welcome to join in at anytime on this tread. Just because we are having a friendly competition doesn't mean people can't grow along, the start and finish dates are important only if you intend to be judged.

 

[oldjarhead100]

Potsai????? I see the two stems tied in a knot but what is the purpose

 

[OlderNOTwiser]

OJH I think it is for the "presentation" category. Pretty cool, though. I'm just happy my entrant is still above ground!

 

[Mrblu]

Just for looks lol, impractical lst

 

[billyboy]

Getting there ... Soon time to feed and train

Walter White is growing well so far. Pistils beginning to show up. Air pruning is working but I hope the ponytailing & leaf tucking I do everyday will even out the tops.

Day 30 already

 

[Mr.furley]

I am really curious is to why root bound would be a problem so early on in a grow.

Left is Fruit Punch Day 200days old in a 6"pot,
Right is Girl Scout Cookies 400days old in a 6" pot

Both have been mother plants, in plastic pots, no root trimming or pruning, in that same pot the whole time. I decided to give them up and put them in Flowering 4 weeks ago. Both of the plant here get no special treatment, alternating water and newts every other day.

thoughts on rootbound?

 

[SoOrbudgal]

I'm just guessing but length of time in container? I would also like to guess that the round is not the culprit?

 

[JohnEmad]

Root bound to me means slower growth and smaller plants but with a good environment they can still have decent production as my last mother plants showed me when I flowered them.

 

[Eliot Pryor]

Thank you for sharing Mr.furley. May I ask what they are in ? Coco soil

It would be sooooo easy to let it slide. Don't say a word. Keep on truckin' as if nothing happened. But I can't. I'm kicking myself for my stupid honesty and stupid respect for you snake-oil salesmen and witch type people.

I'm out of the challenge. One of the three seeds I threw down is a slacker. The slacker was in a pot. Hannah Solo was looking real fine, like the seedling in the other pot. Slacker went to Solo and Solo went to pot.

FoSoHoApo got flipped. I've decided to flip it every week or so or when the plants turn back up, or down?

Crap. I was going to beat you people so bad, too.
