Doesn't need to balance on its own. I'm excited to see you support contraption.

No contraption!!! literally thinking cardboard drink holder haha

How did I miss this thread and the tag?

I'm in.

I recommend a flip to 12/12 day as well. Maybe day 30-40?...we can vote. Idk...no time limit might not work.

I am flexible on this. I just thought some people would not have a dedicated space, so they would want to flip whenever they flip their other plants.

@One drop maybe those beans will get here in time for me to win this thing with?!!!

I like the desire to be flexible part. Would you agree there has to be some sort of end date then?

I'm all in either way you go

I think we should either all flip at the same time or no time limit because if people wait too long their plants will just get root bound and die.

In fact, it could just be the "Show off your solo cup grow" thread and go on forever!!!

That would be just as cool ❤❤

We should also do an outdoor one next summer so that everyone has the same amount of light too.

i would have to turn the hose on and stick it in the cup to keep from dying

Another thing, does the cup have to stand and balance on its own or can it be supported?

I made a stand using a pot carrying rack I’ll look for some pics to show you it’s very hard to keep your cup upright guys I know ... give me a minute to find the thread . Od

Cant be a time limit. Some strains take longer. Some methods take longer. I'm not running an auto or fem seeds. And the strain I'm thinking about running isn't a sprint finisher either.

Good point, agree on the time limit. What do you think about a flip date for the people doing photos? This way it's fair for people running 10 weeks strains and people running 8 weeks strains

 

[Grownsince95]

And then if we doing weight it's dry and cure time blah blah blah this could have a million rules or very few but I think everyone's just cool for the fun of doing it! ❤

Gah I wish. I'm on two that have taken up to 14 weeks. I can push them I guess. It's vertical bonsai.

My thought is the cup kind of inherently limits the flip date to a reasonable range.

We could do a Feb 20th flip date. 42 days. My beans usually take 10-14 days just to soak/break soil etc. So then about a month of veg. Everyone finishes when they finish... if you have a 14 week strain, we all wait to see the exciting results!

Yep until you run into a bonsai idiot like me. That's why I asked about the size of the cup way back in the beginning. An 18oz cup's volume is very close to the bonsai containers I use for all of my plants through the 2nd week of flower. I've got a few that will be a year old shortly after the first of the year. Flowering out in something that small is something I've only done a couple of times though and nothing like Od's results. Not by a long shot.
