4th Official Party Cup Grow off Update Thread

Guys, one question: I cant find those plastic red party cups in my area. Could a 16oz cup from Mc Donalds do the trick? If not then I guess Im off.
 
get any plastic cup at walmart where ever so you can drill holes in it. take a 16oz pop bottle and put next to your cup or a measure tape take pic so all know its the right size. if its clear paint it.

im sure they red solo cups are even at the local gas station... the mcdonalds cups will break down according to others, which makes sense... water, paper, mush;....

AFAIK not in Belgium - Europe... searched for it tho, just cant find it in shops. Ours are pretty much smaller, and way thinner. Thats why I asked for MacD replacement, even if it breaks its better than nothing, otherwise I cant even participate.

How about 500ml cup? Less than 2Tbls more dirt than 16oz.
 
Yep, thats the size of a McD' cup overhere, but I wanted to be sure I have the approval of the "jury" before using it...
I just hope its ok for using a paper cup instead of a plastic cup...

you can use any plastic cup that is the same size as a 16 oz 500 ml cup. go buy a plastic cup dont have to be solo cup. the solo cup is for reference. just post pic with the cup and a measure tape so all can see it is right size. im sure any plastic cup the right size is good and if its clear paint it or duct tape it so light stays out.
 
I had to use a paper cup too. They last I had used some paper cups to veg and they were good for about 3 months.

Ok, here we go, built a 12-12 station yesterday, put the seeds into germ, let's do this 12/12 party cup thing... let the insults begin - lol

Dedicated 12/12 cabinet (14"x27"x43") - I know I'm limiting myself on height, will have to do some LST ;)
150W (100 actual draw) chinese LED
2x Platinum Bubba Kush fems (Indica dominant)
1x Jack The Ripper reg (Sativa dominant)
Secret soil mix

Will cup them in a couple of days, should build some fixtures while they germ, maybe a mini SCROG fixture that Sat, lmao

All joking aside, hoping they just germ so I can see what a party cup on 12/12 can do, built the cab to try a few in larger containers after this contest ;)

Cheeers fellow growers...

you can find a better plastic cup the paper will fall apart. come on all. dont use paper or anything that will not last. really all 16 oz or 500ml. this isnt that hard. same lights start to finish and plastic cup. so find plastic cup if you unsure put tape measure to it take pick and ask if this is right.
 
5th update..day 28...remember i repotted or recupped the three in the front and they've made a nice recovery.The other two I left alone because at the time they were the best looking...not so much anymore:eyesmoke:.I topped three of them.I usually get a little better than 50% females,so we'll see.Hopefully I get 2 females to choose from.Last yr i only got 1/5 females:(.On with the pics...
