Growing in a beer cup.

Hey guys, I have seen full plants grown in a beer cup.
I know about root bound and stuff like that.

I have one of my plants growing in a beer cup and I don't want to transplant it.
Kind of like an experiment I guess lol. So what do you guys think will hinder the plant from growing in such a small space.
I don't care about yield or anything, I just want to see if I can harvest it without transplanting.

Keeping the soil moist is the biggest problem that I have ran into.
 
Wow that's awesome needsomebeans! I am planning on growing in small cups like this for my next grow, 10 regular seeds. Probably will go with the hempy bucket method. Do you think a hempy might yeild as well as a DWC? Just curious how long did you veg your plant and what light did you use to get this kind of yield?

No veg time that was 12/12 straight from seed. I'd say that hempy bucket yields could be similar. I have 250 watts of diy LEDs.

You guys are crazy , that 6 g one looks amazing, would be amazing gift to a friend in a better world where weed is legal as bread and tobacco and chainsmoking not even found.
A lot of us have to stay "in the closet" due to the ignorance of our government. That being said I still gift out my smoke to a few close friends. They always want the hookup but I just tell them I know a guy.

I got 23 grams out of this gal. I made a mini dwc system out of a 16 oz cup from Walmart. View attachment 3767890
That is the best pic I have ever seen with growing in a cup.
I can't believe the amount of yield you are going to get with that. I'm not good at knowing about how many grams you would get from that plant, but I'm guessing 2 ounces.

I thought I might not even be able to get anywhere close to that.
When did you switch from veg to flower. I started putting mine into flowering when it was 2 weeks old. How long did you wait?
Also how long did it take you from start to finish to harvest.

Thanks a lot for posting that pic, it was exactly what I needed. Thanks again man.

That is so awesome. It's like a little cute baby marijuana plant lol.
So you put it in flowering mode the whole time right?
How long did it take to harvest from start to finish?

Thanks for posting that pic, I've never seen a nice smaller plant in a cup before.
Also that plant looks really nice and would really get you stoned. Did you use any nutrients for it?
One more question. What lighting did you use?
