lady bugs are good! They will eat any bad bugs for the plant. I catch them and throw them on my grape vines at times during the summer. It always makes me think of that game hungry hungry hippos cuz she just starts going to town eating anything in front of them.

Hey all =) So update on my party tykes.

Looking a bit droopy, I think I moved them under the HPS too soon, and the HPS was a bit too close to them for a day or 2 because I have to accommodate a bigger girl in flower also.

Yay pics =) DAY 17 Flower (from seedling) Too early to sex them but I'm hoping for at least 1 Fem, they have gone through a little stress =(

uh oh, I decided 15 hours under the T5 was enough veg yesterday and put them into the flower cabinet last night at lights out.

Oh well, here she is this morning.

I think she'll do better than mine at least as far as light intensity is concerned. Your lights are further off which I think it will like. I did notice this important thing with mine though. I have 4 other plants in veg day 17 (started same time as my party cups) and they are much bigger than my party cup plants. It appears they will not veg up much even while they are still immature plants on a 12/12 cycle (plants will veg while they are not mature enough to produce fruit, at least my tomatoes do). I'll compare two plants of the same age, one 17 days in 12/12 HPS and one 17 days 24/0 6500k CFL. The difference was surprising to me.

Yummy, pics are always good. Keep in mind these two plants are EXACTLY the same age AND same strain White Widow

CONCLUSION: Even in a Party Cup, a couple weeks Veg will make a MASSIVE difference =) (Have to water with nutes daily though I bet being in a party cup) My veg plants are watered every 3 days or so.

Interesting food for thought here though, at least for me =)

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter to me who wins this. I just hope everyone has some successful harvests and we can all sit back and enjoy some good conversation about the grow over a nice fat doob after it's said and done =)

This is the only 12/12 from seed, and only party cup grow, I see myself ever doing. I am doing it for fun, for the experience, and to help fill in the big gap of no females in my flower room. The next seed I germ will have 40 or 50 days until it has to see 12/12, thanks to a veg box full of clones. I got so many clones, and am afraid of what my veg box will look like in 50 days, that I am gonna trade a few away for some seeds.
