Party Cup Advice

Hi Guys,

Here is the grow im busy finishing (waiting for the right time to harvest)
https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/759385-noob-grow-flowering-week-5-a.html

My Question is:
My space is tiny, therefore i was thinking of using 5 - 10 party cups and fill the pc case scrog with them.
Im sure i can get around 5-10g's per plant - which overall will result in 50 - 100 grams

Can you please give me advice on how to micro grow in a party cup - root trimming? watering schedule?
As for the dirt, I have a great mix of Fertilizer, garden soil, perlite, bonemeal and lime kalk which i will mix up and leave for 2 weeks before using.

Just general tips on how i could max my yield using party cups would be awesome!
Going to be going 12-12 from seed

I checked out your grow journal and my advice would be to skip the party cups and move up to 1/2 gallon pots maybe 4-6 of them for that space. The square ones are about 5"x5", I think you will have healthier plants and better overall yield with less headache. Those party cups will need to be watered twice a day once the ladies get larger.

the humidity along with air movement directly effects transpiration levels in the plant as does heat... high himidity slows the rate water is given off and absorbed by the air... high heat speeds transpiration...all 3 of these effect the moisture flow throughout your plant...by controlling humidity temp and airflow you slow or increase water uptake in the root zone as well... a plant transpiring a lot of water needs less concentrated nute levels, this effectively negates any symptoms of root bound plants

With increased air flow..serrated edges will turn upand eventually brown and turn crisp like a burn if the plants roots can't handle flowing that much water.. eventually they will acclimate but its not good for them.chill out if this happens.... With increased airflow and in return more water uptake you must also lower nutrient concentrations....
this is an efficient way to combat root bound plants... that can't provide enough nutrients without having so high an ec/ppm they burn....foliar feeding will help if roots still can't support growth

Go for it man.. I've done a few solo cup grows yielded 3/4-1oz per with heavy sativas..
