Ok EVERYONE the time has arrived! This will be a first in a series of Beer Cup Challenges. You all have been very patient waiting on ME. Thank You ALL for that! I am back to growing now. So, hats off to all of you..........:thank you::tiphat:
Starting date Sept 25th 2011 this is the day to start the seeds.


Now the rules of the game will be

1. From seed only. No autos.
2. 16 oz. beer cup. Color is of your choice but not to exceed 16 oz.
3. Indica or Sativa or a cross of your choice.
4. Roots cannot extend past the bottom of the cup.
5. 4 week veg time. 120 days to the T.
6. Any medium you feel comfortable with.
7. Everyone will post weekly pictures of their plants.
8. When the time limit is finished we will have a vote similar to the Bud of the month contest.

If there is anything I have missed let me know and it will be added.

So, lets get this going and post up the strains and descriptions of the genetics you are growing. If you vary from the rules you could be disqualified. Keep it clean and honest and have a great time.

hmm I believe in all of you, but I can't help but think that with 4 week veg itll get rootbound mighty quick...I've seen it done before in 12/12 from seed or 2 week veg...

this is the part where you prove me wrong and I look like a fool :clock watch:

seriously though I'm subbed, this should be fun

Ooooh, I like a challenge

What about lights? Any wattage limit?

Also, is more than one plant, and more than one strain allowed?

Alright!!!!! :dance013: This is what I've been looking for! https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=213082


Is there a set Germination date? I managed to find my cup an bean that were set aside.

Should I crack her now and log it from here, or what?

How can contestants prove vege times? and when does vege start? As soon as the seed germs or breaks medium?

Nother Q,... should we do grow logs on our cup runs?

I've got a thousand more questions about details, but fuckem,... I've been waiting to pop this bean for WAY too long! :D

We all start together.

We prove veg times with the weekly time and date stamped pictures which are a must to post. No picture update and you are disqualified from the contest.

Don't say that! It's the people that only buy 1 ticket that win the lottery.

Besides that, I usually do hydro, so I'm gonna have to change methods. Ain't no way in hell I can run a 16 oz res!
