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!
