What in the flying shitballs are you talking about?
a) Berry Bomb is from Bomb seeds, not Heavyweight.
2 or 3, whatever number we're on now) This competition is from seed only, no clones.
III) Did @nvhak49 ask you for help?

Some of the shit I read on this site. #smh

Uh....Nvhad mentioned re-vegging in another post. And you are correct, Berry Bomb is from Bomb Seeds. And it does not re-veg well.

Hi guys,

Any of you would be kind enough to tell me what is your watering schedule for this type of tiny cup ? It's a shame but i failed to find the sweet spot by myself... It's always too much or not enough. Please help a shitty grower guys. :)

Thanks.

When the cup feels light. I don't think a set schedule works. I think it will change a lot based on how much surface area your roots have at a given time, evaporation, aspiration and so forth.

Hi,

Thanks @Michael Huntherz and @JimmyIndica for your answers.

I use a very simple lightmix by Plagron (Dutch brand) and some Advanced Nutrients feeding (Iguana Juice bloom, Bud Candy, Nirvana). I always wait that the cup is light and a bit dry at the top before giving any water. I aim for a 6.2PH level. At the start i gave about 20cl every 3 days or so., Now i try to give 10cl every 2 days, but it seems to be worse.
Can it be a root bounding already ?

Peace

I'm out of this competition y'all.

My plants are not dead or anything, I just don't have time for plants flowering in tiny cups right now.

I'm in the process of upscaling my garden by about 4x, and its very time consuming. Not to mention my more than full-time job that I already have...

I'll pop these Skunk Wrecked Widows into the veg tent and they'll be fine. I've just got too many plants and clones to be worrying about watering these 16oz cups twice a day in between 12hr shifts and construction. Pretty soon here I'll have over 100sqft of flower space.

You guys should really be thanking me, now some of you actually have a chance to win :-P

It won't be root bound, but those roots do grow DAMN fast, one of my cups had three roots all the way at the bottom of the cup before the cotyledon leaves had gotten out of their hat.

Thank you for your answer bicit.
I never have a root bounded plant so i probably won't even recognize the symptoms:

This Root Excelurator from H&G is working nicely i think.

Bummer man, hope all goes well and hope to see you in the next one.
Thanks bud, everything will be good I'm just too busy to be a competitor this round.


By next comp I will have a nice space with CMH going in flower.

The next cups will go under the CMH. These gavitas are drying them out too quickly, and they're barely on their second set of leaves, lol!

But damn do these gavitas make nice plants. I'm gonna run the CMH against the gavitas for a few months to see which I like better. Then once I reach a decision then I'll build an EVEN BIGGER room!!

Hahaha I love it

I think you'll be presently surprised with the CMH. Very nice lamps.

I have two currently, I literally just ordered two more with reflectors. I'm using them for veg now but I've flowered with them in the past. I'm gonna run them head to head with gavitas, same strain and everything, to see how they do with my own eyes.

Which CMH system are you running?

Makes sense, if I didn't make the cabinet mine are in I wouldn't of joined the comp this round cuz I have no room in my main grow. I've been looking at the gavitas they seem to be pretty awesome from what I read about them. I'd have to run them in the winters where I live than LEDs in the summer.

I've been late with my updates. So, 8-12 is on my cup and 8-12 was a Wednesday. So, I'm going to try to stick with that.

All 3 Afghani. They look pretty washed out in these pics. Started feeding them Sun and they're already greening up. No one has showed their sex yet, but I'd put money on #3 to be a male., based on it's height.

So I wanna be very straight here.

Little man and I went to Walmart for groceries a while ago and cut across the aisle to get him s lunchable. I stopped and saw the cups I have at home, they are 18oz cups, all of them are. Walmart literally sells one set of 16oz cups now, the original brand has moved to 18 entirely.

I didn't know, juat assumed they were 16s, but as soon as I found out I wanted to tell you guys as well. Fair game. I'm not a cheat.

I did buy the 16 cups and could transplant tonight after work, in the truck now. They are just sprouts but I'll leave that up to the community.
