MadScientist's 3rd Annual 16oz Cup Competition 🏁

What EC or PPM have you used for your cups, I still can’t seem to grow some pot well.

The competition is heating up, good luck to you all.
(Unless your plant looks better than mine).

Keep smiling.

He has to be using wires to keep them erect…but I don’t see any!?! The left one is at least 4 inches off center and not turning over. Did he super glue the cup down perhaps?

Yeah, that one smaller bud on the left seems to balance it all out perfectly, lol…

I have been running around 1.8 EC most of this run. It’s a little hot as you can just see the tips burning. The pH starts around 5.6 and drifts up to about 6.1 over a week. This latest res change the EC was 1.2 to finish them off. How long did you run your Juanita x Lowryders?

I play porn to keep them erect… Seriously, I have no idea how they are staying up. I actually ordered a trellise net for them because they will likely tip over as they stack up these last two weeks.

I have only had the one finish so far, that one was pollinated and I only took notice of the seed ripeness not the flowers sorry.

Checking in. There still going. Getting frosty. Two ladies next to each other. The left is the one I snapped. It stood back up on its own. What amazing plants. If nothing I be made some good friends. I love checking in making sure everyone is ok for real. Y’all are killing it. I’ll get a group shot when I clean tomorrow some. Be safe.

Beautiful. I love the fall colors indoors. I already knew what time it was. Go back a million posts. I love that cross. That’s not your 1:1 is it? At this point I’m grasping for the words to post. Beautiful work. You single handedly made me love autos. Thank you.

I am growing these now to see where they live on the CBD spectrum. Mother (Juanita la Lagrimosa by Reggae Seeds) is a 9% THC, 9% CBD cultivar. I’ll do an at home CBD test to look for CBD and a biassay (I’ll smoke it) to see if it has THC.

These are not Autoflowers, but the father (Lowryder2 by Seedsman) looks to have cut the flowering time by almost 30%.

Beautiful. Those colors are stunning dude. Do you drop temps at night, or is it genetics? I was wondering where the lowrider strain came from was it the first of the Autos that really made a hit on the scene? I see seedsman. Thanks bud. I’ll have to give an a go.

I can’t wait to see your Skywalker. You can buy clones like that there? Shit man. We are so repressed. Dc is 35 mins away but I need to network better. Right now it’s not legal to grow although we were supposed to have a 6 plant limit. BS. I’d rather not have anyone know what I’m doing really.

Clones or seeds from a dispensary would be sweet. I’d rather donate to your program. Good stuff you got going. :metal:

Nothing to contribute other than respect and admiration for what you guys can pull off in a solo cup. Bit of jealousy too if I’m honest. Hats off.

I should have put the NL in there. I’m happy right where I’m at. It’s cool to be able to get all of this knowledge and have fun. I also know how I’m going to approach next year’s. I want to start on my own autos. Any links or info is appreciated. Breed ruderellis in? You’ve explained it many time. Plants are stellar bro. She’s got pretty colors. You knew you had this.

You set the bar high for us though. I have a dedicated space for autos and small photos. I flopped the plant I broke of yours already
Come by the house later. :call_me_hand:

The divyder’s looking just about there lots of trichomes but mainly still milky white, trying to hold out for amber

the cherryberry cross however doesnt seem to be as far along as it should be for over a month into flower. Not really sure what’s going on with her or if they take longer to flower maybe?
