I have seen them, and itā€™s pretty amazing what can be done out of a solo cup.

Got my seed picked out, and waiting patiently for June 1st!

Morning peeps,

Itā€™s 8.45am in Costa Rica and itā€™s overcast today with very high chances of rain in the afternoonā€¦

Soā€¦ Pack your bowlsā€¦ Wait, what?

RULES FOR THE CONTEST

No transplanting and pruning the roots to make it fit back in a 16oz cup at the end.
We will know and I WILL DISQUALIFY anyone who doesnā€™t take a pic of the root ball.
Whatever ingenious way you find to grow your plants goes, but itā€™s gotta fit in the 16oz cup.

I did this in 15 days, so no excuses at all, please peeps, itā€™s for funā€¦

1. Germination starts on Saturday, June 1st at midnight, Veggie till the end of June.
2. Mandatory flip (except for autos OFC) on Sunday, June the 30th at midnight.
3. Regular, Feminized and Autos are all welcome, in case of autos be patient till the rest finish.
4. Donā€™t try to be smart and transplant to a bigger pot then back to the cupā€¦ GONER!
5. Winner will be chosen by members poll. I made the 1st post wiki so you can write yourselves up.
6. Limit is 4 cup per contestant.

Letā€™s have fun and may the best grower win.

Thanks for your participation gang!

Count me in, I am going to do a mini DWC just for shits and giggles and to see if it can be done. It will be set up so that NO roots can get out of the cup as per the rulesā€¦ I am going to grow one of my own projects that my bro and I have been working on for a number of years now, a mix of superskunk, big bud and OG Kush we have been calling FAF or ā€˜fast as fuckā€™ in house for obvious reasons, but is now called Pacific Jade :slight_smile: Should be fun!

If I recall I think most people do multiple but then you choose one of them at the end as your final submission.

Itā€™s got to be done by June 1st I believe go back to the original post heā€™s got the rules up you can use autos I believe any seed you want but it has to be in a 16 oz cup you canā€™t alter The Roots at all you know what Iā€™m saying heā€™ll know weā€™ll all know. If you run an auto you just have to wait for everybodyā€™s to finish up. Itā€™ll be voted on and prizes will be awarded. Check out mr. Sparkles cup from last yearā€™s winner!

I donā€™t think the Media Matters I think if you even want to try like a little dwc setup you could do it just as long as you donā€™t try to prune your roots or anything crazy like that but go back to the original post cuz Iā€™m not sure if you can use clones or not I donā€™t think so but you can do multiple cups you just enter one you know what I mean in case you have a male or something like that what checkout Mad scientist post you should be able to get back to the beginning Iā€™m not sure how it use all this properly for real for real I believe germination is supposed to occur on June 1st so itā€™s up to you if you want to run a Auto seed or whatever. Just check the little details to make sure you have to enter with someone or edit the original post with your name donā€™t let me trip you up they deny you canā€™t just yank a plan for ft tall out of your pot cut the roots and jam it in a Solo Cup with some dumb-ass Pebbles or something
