2023 solo cup contest..

[Star Dog]

What about training?
It's in my nature to tie them over

I could live without it, but I'd like to?

You have time to train if you do it right

Supports are only allowed if you are using hidden magnets stuffed in the buds, because no one would even know that's whats holding the the 6 ft plant up.. haha. Follow me for more advice on how to cheat! Your all going to need it to win against my legit deep solo culture cup. JK, I know you guys wouldn't.

I think mini scrogs/supports should at least be allowed though. Just, the size of whatever medium being in 16 oz solo cup should be the only real rule..


I guess without a support, when it tips over, you just keep feeding it anyway?

 

[J. Rocket]

roots should be within the cup only.

 

[farmerfischer]

Topping is allowed,,
You can put as much drain holes as you want but only the underside of the cup..
Small bamboo can be used or what ever to support the plant but cup cant be fixed to anything..

Yes in cup only.. not in trays with perlite or soil, ect..

 

[J. Rocket]

only real limitation is the cup itself.

Wake up you Rube Goldbergs!

 

[Dorian2]

You mean to stop the cup toppling over or something?

Any medium.

Now that's an interesting question on the hole/s

I believe previous events, you could only have one hole, doesn't mean we have to follow but should be discussed

Yes. To stop from toppling. Are you saying that a one-hole cup with a hydro setup as a medium is OK?

If so, I don't have a chance.

EDIT: Just saw roots in cup only. Thanks.

Cup has to support its self.. no deep water culture .. flood and drain and drain to waste is allowed. Only the plant can be supported

could one perhaps set their cup in a simple cup holder or such?

If your plant gets rediculessly heavy you can support the cup.. but pics must be provided to prove..

I just put seed in coco coir. Do we need to provide pics of cup with our info on it?

 

[Drop That Sound]

I don't have any good known feminized seeds or autos, so I'm just gonna pop a bunch of random strains I collected 4 free, that would probably sit around anyway.

I'm in though.

12/12 from seed is probably the way to go right?

Are male plants disqualified? Could weigh up the balls. See who has the biggest ball sack.

 

[Drop That Sound]

I'm just gonna let him pollinate the rest of my solo cups entered in too. He might even win the best show award, who knows?

Not only will the seeds will add weight to the female participant plants, but I could end up with some pretty crazy random genetics that I wouldn't have otherwise.

Yes.. you need to document from start to finish.. you can do that here or in a journal.

Only one plant can be entered in comp.. you can start as many as you like.. but once they are flipped to flower and show sex you must select just one for entry in comp..

Um, excuse me, you seem to be forgetting where I clearly stated I would be cheating and it would be allowed.
