2nd LED Party Cup Competition Official Update Thread

[Bagsworth]

Bagsworth, my bad I must have forgot you. you are definitely still in it. Sorry for the mix up!

Hey Puff, no worries, I figured you just overlooked so I figured I would refresh your memory!!

here is a pic from tonight. as you can see she is really coming along. the ph varies, wildly and i gotta mess withit every morning before work but thats why i wanted to get into this competition in the first place.(cuz its ridiculous)

Hey Randy, how old is that monster??? I am very impressed, my little sexy mama is a slow grower it seems(Royal Queen Critical), but I am not using a hydro setup either. I can't wait to see how yours turns out.


UPDATE: Day 10, she's moving slow, but that could be because she wants to take her time and make herself the sexiest queen out there. Go Queeny go!!!!

 

[Bagsworth]

I have been ultra busy lately and have not been around a whole lot, so don't anyone take it personal if I don't make many posts over the next few weeks, my time should free up hopefully at the end of this month if all goes well with work, then I can start focusing more on this project and my grow journal. Best luck to all, and I will do my best to chime in when I can.

Good job on the growth, how many days is this?, and what light is it under?
Color looks a bit off, but nice job..

Looks like you haven't been posting pictures in about 3 weeks, kinda hard to see the weekly growth if there isn't nothing to compare it too.
Not saying anything bad, but you just don't have post showing from where you started to this point. Just wondering..

Official update no3 around 7 days

decided to put a layer of coco perlite over the top of the perlite on 3 of the passive hydro system as it was drying out to quickly things a little more stable now so here are my girls yup some seedlings Hopefully a bit more interesting by next week and they will be a bit more established

WHAT IS GOING ON?? I GOT MY GAME ON OR WHAT?

HAHA just kidding, they did incredibly well this week and I am stoked! Its right around the same time I fucked up in the last competition so hopefully I can keep them healthy a little longer, amazing that they showed tap root on Dec 9 th and how far into budding they are now.

I know man this AGent Chemo strain might be a keeper , I might have to grow a mother ... the growth is so vigorous and so fast, I have one that is weeks (2ish..) away from harvest, I mean I collected them seeds in November ,... sprouted on Nov 15th... The smell is getting very interesting too, a happy balance between the 2 strains. (I am not talking about them cups, no smell yet,... talking about the first agent chemo that I started Nov.15th)

 

[Psychonaughtical]

Update numero uno. The only two that have broken ground are the Buddha's and I'm quite happy. Three days from germ to sprout.





Lets do this!

 

[jubiare]

Hey psycho, what's your media, maybe you have already mentioned it sorry

 

[Psychonaughtical]

No need to apologize my friend!

Here's the details of my grow.

Seeds;

Buddha's Sister from Soma Seeds. Had a stout and hardy male Buddha that I bred with my cherriest of females and produced a good amount of seeds. Running two of my sisters reg seeds.

Bag Seed from a gnarly fruity citrus strain that I've grown once before. Three of these, reg seeds.


Lights;


Only the creme de la creme. Three glowpanel 45's of the first gen. Actual draw on each is roughly 9 watts. Surprisingly not that shitty when used in close proximity and covering all angles.


Medium and Noots;


Medium is Pro-mix HP, nutes are Plant Prod from my local gardening store 15-30-15 along with PK 13-14 for later and Bio-Protec for some macro nutes and beneficial bacteria at the start.
Seeds are in rockwool in the promix.

Love the little babies Psycho...........I would not use that fert for a party cup/ your P is too high ====will cause stretching. Use a balanced 20-20-20 fert or better higher N-K one throughout to keep it manageable......................good luck growers/ love the shit talking

 

[Psychonaughtical]

Thanks PSUAGRO, surprisingly enough one of my problems last time was that they were quite stunted in the cups but I chalked that up to low temps and cal mag problems.

I'll be heading to the hydro shop tomorrow to grab something for the that as well as to get some better more tailored nutes.

isnt 20-20-20 way strong for cups!? mine is 2-2-4 or something like that hehe.

the numbers don't represent real world strengtha......it's the ratio balance within the fert

edit.....meaning a 20-20-20 will be absorbed by the plants at proper dilutions exactly the same as a 5_5-5 at recommended dilution levels

Lookin' good everyone.
I thought I'd drop in and share why I had to drop out:
8x 1w white chinese LEDs and my attempt to preserve a plant (I have no seeds/other plants) I found flowering in my compost around 3" tall(the weather has been brutal lately). She's actually revegging nicely alongside my maters and basil 'lings...


And next on stage...


As soon as the driver gets here



Good luck everyone!!!

I guess what I am saying is that it would be hard not to over do it when you mix 100ml of solution!

yes you are correct and your right to a degree/ a 5-5-5 fert will have more filler than a 20-20-20.......Put the same amounts of each ferts in the same amount of water, the 20-20-20 will burn the plant!!.........what I'm saying is plant can't differentiate between the two at proper/recomd dilutions.
