Welcome one and all to Indoornesian’s Second Annual 16-18 oz. Cup Challenge
Alrighty fellow OG’ers, here’s what I’ve been wanting to do for a few years now. Hosting the annual Cup Challenge. This particular comp will require that we all use only OG member beans… That is beans that have been created here and gifted here. This is an opportunity to grow out and give props to the members who tirelessly pass out seeds that they are working with. Each October 31st from here on out, all participats will be required to post their intentions about which strain and will be required to plant by the end of the week, that’s seven days to commit and plant. I will be growing along and following along and enforcing the rules each season. The judging will be by poll and the most votes will win the Cup. I am in the process of shipping out the Cup trophy from last year’s winner of the first Cup Challenge to @Cannasaurusrex!!!
and the winner will get the Cup partially filled with beans!
When the next Challenge arrives the winner will be sent the Cup trophy by the previous year winner. And I’ll announce and present the bean winnings each year. The Rules
Start seeds on or before November 7th. (OCTOBER 31st-November 7th) Any amount of entries is acceptable, each entry should be labeled with clear dates. Keep it clean people’s
No changing or altering labels unless it’s to refresh.
16-18 ounce solo cups. No substitutions!
Veg period will be 5 weeks only, and each participant will have to be in flower at the 5 week stage. December 13-14
Any medium can be used and nothing from outside of the cup will be allowed unless it’s the top of the cup ie the plant itself.
No negative anything will be tolerated.
Judging will be for the heavy, frosty, and the overall appearance. Whatever the voters approve of the most. Indoornesian ( n 3rd person) will be final call on ties, defaults, or rule breakers.
This is a community event for any members. Good luck and let’s let our intentions be known by next week along with the soaks, direct sown, or whatevers!
Each participant should update their entries on a bi-weekly schedule at the least, the more updates the merrier.
Last and most importantly, the beans used in this comp have to be member oriented and a shout out to whom they were generated from would be respected and surely appreciated.
International note, Canada is first on the board with the first victory Who gets it next, I’m sure we’re all intrigued
If the roots flow thru your cups drainage is fine as long as you don’t have a medium underneath.
If you decide on clones, you would have to begin with a naked stem and root like the seed group.
This is cool, I want in, but I have a contractor here for most of Nov. so will have to sit this one out. One question, how many can be started or finished?
I wish I could join! Been wanting to do a solo cup grow to push through some beans and try some stuff out. Unfortunately, I can’t grow at that point. Inspections in an apartment . Good luck everyone! I’ll still follow along. Good on you for putting this together @Indoornesian!
It’s been a pleasure hosting Cup Challenges! When I first got on OG there were regular Challenges going on and I wanted something that would highlight members gear to compliment the work that OG members proudly display. So here we are, sorry to hear that you can’t join in. Maybe next year!
