Do you mean that giant 4 foot plant growing out of that teeny little cup?I saw some questionable stuff on cup 7, if the competition runner picked a random number or symbol after week one it would be easy man. No newspaper needed. We all know what a one week old sprout looks like, when we got our cheatbuster symbol and post it the next week it would be sooo obvious if cheating is going on. You wont know what the symbol is so you cant cheat. Thats just what i think. I dont care if my plant is big or not, just nice, and dont really care if people cheat, cause i aint. I just think it would be nice to not be parinoid that im the only one not cheating

I got 1 fem cheese freebie seed with my afghani. So that and I'm also running the blue balls probably.. @Andrew2112 . If anyone else in this would run those blueballs. that would be hilarious. But we'd be the top finishers.

So you're doing two? How many can you enter into the competition? And what breeder is the cheese from?

I'd like to know what the official rules are for this challenge. All this talk about prizes is draining my enthusiasm and I can't find any conclusive info on the rules of the competition. How can one prepare without adequate info? I saw the list posted earlier, but it was still to vague to be sure of the do's and don't.

It's that time everyone, The 8th official party cup grow competition registration starts now. All you have to do to enter is comment here that you want in and I will enter you. It's that easy!
Rules from the 6th and 7th cup comps stand!
This will be my second time hosting this wonderful competition so we'll get right into it!
Here is a basic outline of the rules for this competition.
* 1st post or germination post MUST contain
the following: strain name, nutrients used,
Light source used, media used and
Germination date. (Day of sprout).
* Germ date and strain name must be written
on the cup by first post.
* Party cups(16oz 473 ml) only, no other sizes and
no transplanting or "swapping" permitted.
* Roots must be confined inside the cup at all times and any
roots growing outside the cup will result in
automatic DQ. Trim back any stragglers. Contestants
will be subject to root checks in between weekly
postings if requested by me.
* Any indoor light source allowed, no changing light
sources one started (with the exception of a burnt out
bulb). No Sunlight.
* Participants, registrants, host, and sponsors may vote
on winner(s). Start from seed only. No Clones. No
Auto flowers. 12 week sativas highly discouraged, we
don't want to wait for these to finish and may ask you to resign. 12/12, 13/11, 11/13
the entire time, No Veg time
* Start a maximum of 5 seeds total, keep only 1 female
plant for entry once sex has shown for all 5.
* Germination window begins 12:01 am AKST (Alaska standard time) 2/15/16 and ends 2/29/16 11:59 pm AKST (yes on the "leap day")
No exceptions or stragglers, PERIOD!
* Weekly updates mandatory with picture(s).or you're Dq'd
---CONTINUAL TARDY UPDATES MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO DQ!---
Hydro, DWC, automated watering, soma style and any other non-standard, non-dirt
type growers:
These methods are accepted as long as the roots are in the confines of the cup.
Again root checks may be requested by me at any time. No cheating will be tolerated
period! Like last comp any suspected cheaters will be held against a community tribunal
For judgment. As far as the difficulties of finding a 16 oz cup... all I can say is start looking now!
I know this has been a sticking point but we've had 7 comps with this size cup and we've always
gotten through it.
Try the children's birthday party section at your local retailer if all else fails!
***REGISTRATION ENDS FEBRUARY 14TH 11:59 PM AKST!!!!****
GOOD LUCK!
MOST IMPORTANTLY:
HAVE FUN AND LEARN SOMETHING NEW!
The first post! What are your questions?

Who is asking for the root checks and will they also be subject to the same? If so, can contestants ask for root checks periodically?
How do these "weekly check-ins" work? Are there specific things that have to be done each week?
And he does state "basic outline of the rules"

Anyone in the U.S. have a good source for 16oz cups? Not mail order, like dollar stores or where did you find them? I've looked at Sam's and wally world and didn't see any.
I'm going to kick some cup ass so you guys don't get your hopes up on winning.

It's pretty basic, the peanut gallery will throw criticisms and comments at each other but only the host will demand a root check or other verification that your keeping things on the up an up

You pop 5. When they show sex. You pick one female.
The freebie is super cheese from feminized seeds. That's what it says in the pack.
