OFFICIAL: Auto-flower Solo cup contest - Sign up here!

some need a push to get going a few dark hours but the whole 12/12 thing on a auto is for bud structure for the most part it will flower under whatever
IMO you can "usually" tell if its a ruderalis cross from what the tips of the leaves look like
the blade of the leaf is like a small indica and the tip is somewhat sativa long and thin
just something ive noticed

sup all, sorry i havent been around much been working the graveyard alot latley, my girl is small but shes going, i will update with pics if not tonight then tomorrow for sure, as of right now i beleive the last list i posted is the entrants we have, i beleive its something like 25-28 people which is pretty good, im NOT going to be accepting anymore entrants very soon...this means even if you got a confirm from me if you do not reply within the next 72 hours it WILL be to late. after that the contest will be closed to entrants and we can start working toward the veg/flower stagegood luck everyone!

thats like comparing baton twirling to hockey " a sativa with indica run times" <~~~~~ i want that statement to have my babies O.O

Not saying I don't like the run time. I just prefer the potency photoperiods give me. Plus I can make clones and get a harvest in bout the same time frame as an auto.

AK- got some new cups today.
Dank mentioned that he found the one he got at wally world so i got 3 new ones.
they are shorter than the clear cups but i am just going to pull all 3 of mine out of the clear cups and put them in the new 16oz. cups i got.
I'm NOT adding new soil or anything to the cups. just transferring what i have to the new cups.

I am perfectly ok with this stew, aaannnd being the ring leader here, me being okay = everyone being okay...


problems? i see none




good luck buddy!

THANKS! Just thought, since the clear don't fit completely into my other solo's to block the roots from the strong lights,
I'd get a darker cup for that.....
So i got a pink PRINCESS cup hahahahha, Wonder Woman(that plant is showing sex today, fem, YEAH!), and finally BATMAN.

I couldn't find another decent comic book character so i got the pink one. Think maybe it'll help her go fem too!? lol

So my critical cheese is already showing some signs of sex and only has about 5 nodes of growth I'm very impressed. I'll have some pics in the next couple days. I just checked its apparently been 18 days since sprout I can't believe it.

pm AK and ask

Looks like the BCA entry grows are sexed already. I can't wait to see different phenos. Am I the only one doing BCA outside?

PM AK as he said. but tell him you're in. plain and simple. he gave a 72 hour deadline last night so 48 hours left. 2 more days for entries and it's closed.



edit: gonna get some microscope shots of the small preflowers on my SOLO's and a line up of the new cups. (P.S.- I found superman today but I've already cut the bottom holes in the princess cup so she's staying lol)

Thanks...I just sent him a message.... I also forgot to mention I'm growing a cross I made....Diesel Ryder x Purple JEM....I'm not expecting anything huge or potent...Just some tasty flowers

I got other cups I put em in to block the light.

None have sexed. the last batch that was planted 7/15 didn't sex on time either. not too worried about it. they are 18 days old. in a week they'll be twice this size...

That clear cup inside other cup idea is a great way to watch your plant's progress

Spyder with some LST(no longer tied down now)

Spyder EXTREME LST lol....Female I think. will know by tomorrow.
Spyder untouched, growing it as is.
All 3 to compare the difference in growth. Untouched is by far the best so far. and here's the line up

yea I just saw it wasn't working out for you

Not that it wasn't working for me now. it's just that the roots will fill the sides of the cup and then the light will fry them. so the plant would end up stunting from root damage. so I just thought a well insulated colored cup would work best. I'll pop a BD clone into a clear cup for a bit if you really wanna see the pics of it growing up lol....
