I challenge you to a duel!

[Gingerbeard]

Whoa now Farmall ? You might be cheating yourself a couple ounces with a 16.

 

[Farmall]

Do you mean use 18oz? It’s hardly 11. 2% bigger. Like a 5 gallon being 5 1/2.... thinking it’s minimal change. Bad enough I need to blow off another 1100watts of led. Hell, I won’t even need eye protection...😎

 

[Retodd]

There’s no way you can keep the roots in the cop bud. Anytime you have any type of drain holes the roots are gonna come out.

 

[D.A.A.S.69]

The Dixie cups I got ain't but 14ozs. Are mine the right size? I thought that was the normal size, but I never studied up on Dixie cups, so I don't know, how many different sizes they got.

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

I've been finding 16 and 18 ounce cups in my locale. I think 18oz is the maximum for this contest.

 

[Mr.furley]

You are good D.A.A.S.69
The size varies from store to store so as long as the cup is no larger then 18oz you can use it.
18oz cups seems to be the most common size.

 

[D.A.A.S.69]

Thank you FBLovin an MrFurley,
18oz, HappyHolidays

 

[JohnEmad]

I hear ya Retodd. Not sure how any cup that has drain holes can fully contain the roots but I planned to trim any renegade roots every second day or so. But no drain holes and rot will happen so have to have drainage.

 

[JohnEmad]

I found 18 oz and compared them to 16 oz I already had. They are the same size exactly. Not sure why the 16 oz can hold 18 to the brim but state they are 16 and not 18? Either way I am using a red solo style cup.for the duel...lol

 

[DingusKhan]

You could line the cup with smart pot fabric, or some such.

 

[DingusKhan]

Shoulda got you some Yankee cups instead.

 

[Gingerbeard]

Also 'One Cup to Rule them All.'
Also 'Her Holiness' or any reference to holiness. Not holes, just holiness.
Also 'Jenifer' or 'Christie.' I don't want those used.

 

[JohnEmad]

That might just do it. Hmmm, do I have such a thing in my junk storage?

 

[Gingerbeard]

Number 1 of The Rules says the plant must grow in the 100 days. That means we don't have to plant on January 1?

 

[LurkingInTheGrass]

Some sort of waterfall? Put your fabric at the top to contain and shade the roots

Reduce the hole count and put them high, will still have roots chasing the water flow

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

I'm pretty sure you can plant anytime between the start and end dates.

Does the plant have to still be alive and in the cup at the cutoff date?

 

[Mr.furley]

FunkyButtLovin
You can plant anytime after the 1st and if you finish before the judging date, document it, save your pictures and details then submit it once that thread opens if you are doing more then the grow off.

I do not what the comp to dictate haverst dates and cause over ripping of a plants.

 

[LurkingInTheGrass]

Mr.furley
was there some mention of artistic judging?

I got some ideas I would like to run by you

solo cup of dirt, with seed and call it "Potential"

Solo cup that I tell you has a seed (oh, it has a seed, nudge nudge, wink wink) and call it "Schroedingers best?"

artistic? right?

{8o_~

 

[Gingerbeard]

Cool. If I start closer to the end of January, I can work it with my next grow and still have 70+ days.

 

[Mr.furley]

You are encouraged to be artistic, that's funny lunkin.
