I do believe the Ninja Turtles have thrown down the gauntlet:)
Only A-game cups will compete in this comp.No amount of show and pageantry,half naked chicks,fancy purpose made lights or sophisticated hydro setups is gonna help.

As some might know I've had a bit of bad luck with my cups the past two comp...BUT not this time!!It's on losers!!:)
.....all in good fun:)GOOD LUCK!!

This is why I'm worried about your flood cups:

This started out as a trial of a DIRT top fed drain to waste/auto feed solo-cup rig.... I didn't realize how goddam strong those roots can be, and I forgot to check the drain holes on the bottoms of the cups... My wifey calls this my "terra-ponics" system now.... GOOD LUCK SIR!

@newGrows
How much water exactly?I'm not sure I water everyday with little to no runoff,maybe a 1/4 cup of water each.I've put one small drain hole per cup,so not to have them dry out so quick.I think mine have been drying out too quickly in the past.

@vitamin_green_inc
Thanks bro!.....See I told y'all I got jipped last comp!The winners were deservedly so....all better looking than mine.
I'm just a sore loser;)

Mine are still in the Rapid Rooters in the cups, i think i will be putti g them in the perlite soon but I put just enough water to cover the bottom of the cup at lights on and then right before lights out I do it again...so maybe like an inch a day? This keeps the rapid rooters moist BTW and there is little to no residue when at beginning and end of 12/12.

Thanks, and also thanks for posting such an awesome series of updates. Just looked back at all of them. Do you really have no holes in your cups and did you never change how much water you gave as the plants got bigger?

Never changed the amount because a quarter cup is about all that's necessary,only the frequency of waterings.Of course as the plant gets bigger the more waterings it needs.GL

By the way @mc130p,I am using $3 bags of potting soil from Dollar General....Does that give me the advantage or disadvantage?;)
Click to expand...

Haha, yes a huge advantage. I'd estimate that at about 2.3 cents of DG soil per cup? Sounds like the makings of a champ to me:)
