I challenge you to a duel!

[Tersky]

I just used scissors with a sharp point...

 

[JohnEmad]

So we can let the roots grow out of the cup into whatever medium?
I am ok with whatever the standard is. Just checkin.:wink:

 

[Gingerbeard]

What if there's catastrophic failure of the cup? Like if cracks bust the cup open? Will transplants be allowed due to cup breakage? As similar as possible to the original. No trimming of root ball.

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

Count me in. I've got my cups and everything, but I can't decide which strains to try.

Anyone have any suggestions on what to try out of this assortment?

Roots must stay contained in your cup. You can poke holes in your cup for airflow but roots can not grow into another container/medium .
small cup-BIG FUN!

 

[Mr.furley]

Good question Gingerbeard
I have found that the cups get weak drill holes in it, how about we cross this bridge if we need too.

 

[Mr.furley]

Welcome along FunkyButtLovin glad you can join us.
You got some good seeds there, that going to be a tough decision.

 

[Rwise]

Mr.furley I just wanted to run this setup by you for a judgement call before I start putting everything together.

50/50 Coco/perlite mix hand fed for the first couple weeks.
I will then place the solo cup on top of a continuous feed reservoir fitted with a net pot and hydroton for drainage back into the reservoir. I plan to setup a mini trellis that I will suspend the solo cup from leaving a clear air gap between the bottom of the solo cup and the hydroton. I also plan to trim away any roots that try to make their way out of the bottom of the cup.

Would you consider this setup to be within the “Spirit” of the contest?

 

[Mr.furley]

That sound great Obi-Wan
Hydroponic solo cup with style, cant wait to see it in action.

 

[Spidermite]

Holy shit Obi-Wan is gonna wrap this up with that setup.

 

[Spidermite]

I know I'm gonna get embarrassed this competition. I'm a huge container guy. I think 3 gallon pots are for the first 2 weeks. Lol I go to really big pots. You guys go ahead and start working on your jokes. I'm not even gonna start prepping until probably noon on the first. Lol

 

[Obi-Wan]

I wouldn’t say that. I’ve never done it before and there are so many things that could go wrong!!!

 

[Canuck147]

I think this competition - to me - the KISS methodology is the smartest way to grow.

 

[billyboy]

There is a party concept at my place happening around the Duel. We are going to count down to germination @ Midnight. Can we start at midnight in the time zone where we are and be within the rules?

:straight-face:

 

[OlderNOTwiser]

Hope so. Ain't waiting 'til 3 am. I'd have to start the next morning. Although that will likely just be time in a shot glass.

 

[Spidermite]

He actually gave a time zone. To be honest I dont think 24 hours one way or the other would give an advantage. But within the rules make it 24 hours or less after his time zone and you will be fine. If someone can win by 24 hours that would be a miracle.

 

[s62]

My dude, you’ve given this one some thought! I keep putting it off, I’m so damn busy. Need to start thinking tho.
