The Great Beer Cup Challenge 2011

[WelderDan]

One confirmed female (LUI/BM) and one confirmed male (G13/BSH). He was my nicest looking G13/BSH too. I'll try to throw him back in veg or take a clone. Or save the pollen barring anything else. Pics later when I'm more awake

Lots of great stuff! Mine woulda been better ha ha ha. Seriously lots of winners out there right on I'll check again in a few weeks.

BOTH of my G13/BSH and my nicest Killer Queen are male



One LUI/BM is for sure a female



She's a little droopy, just watered her.

The rest haven't shown yet, but I'm suspicious the other Killer Queen is a he as well. There is one C99 F3 in there, and if it turns out female it's getting re potted and saved as a mom.

I put the males outside and will save the pollen when they bust their nuts. I KNEW they were going to be male the way they shot up so fast

Power Kush DWC. Shes stretching a little more, just what I wanted.

That mini bubbler is so cool. I almost went that route, but I was afraid of too much PH fluctuation in such a tiny space.

 

[Headbandf1]

Well i went in to get a picture of my biggest Strawberry Cough and saw he had dropped nut, so its of to the Pollentorium for him.

 

[stihgnobevoli]

i was having a dilemma but its cool now. im all just about all outta space in my veg cab, im maintaining burned leaves at this point, and my flower cab is also mostly full so what to do?

i check my start date and see that i am fully into 4 weeks of veg according to the contest rules so i am flipping mine to flower. whew.! thought i would have to start topping plants.

DAY 0 Flower today.

I think everyone is afraid of that, its some crazy growers fear. I grow in 1g DWC pots normally, and everyone told me that would be too much to manage as well.

MaxiBloom buffers out the pH, so thats that. Ive never owned a pH meter, only because the Maxi nutes have done so well (FloraNova did just as well for pH buffering too, I just opted for the cleaner stuff this time), Ive never been justified to drop the money on one.

I use PBP and I stopped bothering with the PH meter too. But I usually run a 3.5 gallon bucket. I may just give a smaller res a try...

Weekly Update....
We'll folks, she is starting chunk up, nicely. Starting to show some Trichomes.

She is starting to get a sweet/berry smell too.
This girl, You would thinks it's an Auto Flower, of some sort, but it's not. lol 12/12 straight from seed.

I kinda wish I could have vegged her out a week or two more.
She isn't going to be the biggest out of tha competition.

So yep, here are the weekly pictures.

Peace...

this beer cup challenge has inspired me to keep a male very small, in a beer cup or something similar, and gathering the pollen before it bursts. Then pollinate a bud or two to get more seed. Thanks guys!
