Seems silly to me that you couldnt run a clone in a solo cup comp.

I mean i can see how it would be a slight advantage but the real tricky part is keeping those buggers alive to the end in such a little pot.

I was watering my one twice a day and still only just keeping up with it. It tested me thats for sure

Its a disadvantage if anything, clones don't have a tap root unlike those grown from seed which is supposedly pretty useful

If you don’t want to waste seeds you can see if you’d be competitive/get your form down, just start flipping clones as soon as they root. But yeah, all those challenges require 12/12 from seed and I don’t have the room/seed to waste atm.

Its not a matter of wasting seeds, I just haven't had the gonads to order any yet. :oops:

mine where 2in clones with zero veg time. I was pretty happy with them.

Ah yeah thats probably the difference. Being a clone they were probably ready to flower at flip. I cant remember how long mine vegged before they decided to start flowering but it was at least 3 maybe 4 weeks of veg.

And yeah yours look great

Yea i know its all marketing man but shes mint lookin though.. id have to lpok into the buckets more before tryna build them how would ya build the net pots or would it be easier buyin them. Even before that vid i wanted to run lights with the cool tubes. An yea i know that leds be the go but wouldn have the dollars for it. All i gotta do is frame up an fit out a room insulate it all paint it out get some lights an other gear then make or buy the bucket sytem an im set:bigjoint:.. If only it was that simple.

Start small. Go buy a decent light, a good exhaust fan, a good carbon filter, a good ph meter and a bluelab truncheon. Those things you will reuse for years so they are worth a decent investment.

A cheap tent, some pots, some coco and nutrients.

It isnt real cheap to get started but it does pay for itself in no time

I would take @2easy advice!
If your hearts set on buckets I would cap it a 4 just for the first grow at least. But I’m no expert on the subject.

Yea keeping it simple would be the smart thing to do no doubt. Im leaning toward the insulated an seald room for privacy an tryna minimise noise as much as possible inside the house is a no go for me.
