The Official 2012 Beer Cup Challange

[Wicked Budz]

Is It to late to get in on the challenge?

 

[ShortStackz]

As others have told me, its 120 days from May 26th is the cut off for finished buds. Maybe this should be added to the rules on page 1 to clarify for new people wanting to join in.

Here's a few of the 20 Sour nevilles I finally transplanted under my 150 hps.I have some others I may just throw into flower today, just for fun.They are about a week old give or take a day.Going straight to 12/12 on a few should make it more interesting considering the long flowering parents and you can grow Nevilles straight from 12/12 and still have 5ft plants...

here is a close up of the indica bud.
In the contest next time I will be vegging for 3-4 weeks for a higher yield.
this such a cool contest it deff should be a regular thing on this site. like all year long. so like every 128 days or whatever we should start a new one. just an idea.
the rest of my ladies tomorrow.

Why no clones? Id pop seeds, but I don't want to waste them, I'd either have to veg them long enough to take a cut(which could be a real issue in flowering with the rootbound and what not) , or re-veg (Which takes valuable space and a loooooooong time)

I understand that if clones were allowed, the future contests would be altered significantly but why not?

Sure would make for a crazier show...

 

[exploziv]

maybe we can have a clone category next time?

rooted clone + about 2 weeks veg should have similar size with one from seed with 1 month veg, but the harvest I think would be better in most cases for the clone, so they should be judged seperately to be fair.

Pretty quick sprouting for 2-3 year old seeds

 

[aerokrafter]

I'm in.

Been a long time since I flowered anything in dirt - should be fun!

I drug out the collection and got lost for an hour. I wanted to take the opportunity to crack something I realistically would never have gotten to.

So out of the pile came these:


While rummaging about, I laughed when I looked at this really old packaging. Thought some old timers would get a grin.



Could you imagine trying to mail this nowadays - metal washer and all?


Let the games begin!

[Toes.]

Can't wait to see those Neville's hybrids fellas.

maybe we can have a clone category next time?...

Why no clones?...

would the beginning day be the day cuts are taken from the mother plant?... or a week from root? At 4 nodes or 4", root into cloner or rooters soil.... seems like there would be a lot of variables for a full on....

sounds fun as hell tho

Only 2/5 of the Blue Mstic x Ice have cracked the surface so far. Might have to pop some more beans cause the other 3 split open but I think I kept them too wet and killed them.

Couldn't get red/blue beer cups in Oz so had the squat pots which hold 512mL. Hope you guys will let me use these.

My Sour Nevilles are growing nicely.No problems at all.This group loves the 150hps.

[vonforne]

Satori x Flo 5 of 6 up and running

Nevilles Mango

Shantis Shit f2s. My other cross has not sprouted but I made these last round also. Basically an IBL from Shanti. I don´t like to give out untested seeds so I started some of these. They did great.

another shot of the Satori x Flo

NNow the fun begins............

2 tailed seedling

Here's my sour bubble babies enjoying some sunshine. They're inside a bucket to keep nosy neighbors from seeing anything obvious. I wish I could grow outside full cycle--the plants just love it. For now I just move them outside when I'm around, otherwise they're back inside.

The 2 little ones just popped up yesterday.

Hey all, I asked V these questions and it was suggested that I post them here. I f*d it up, but here goes:

Hey Von,

a couple of q's about the challenge. I only have 16 oz cups. Could I cut the top inch off of 4 of them and put them in a whole cup so that I can get another 3/4" in depth? I think it would still come in at or under the 18 oz limit. As far as roots coming out the bottom, I understand that I cant stack the cup on a pot or put it in some sort of mini aerponics chamber. But, I have clones in cups w/ roots out the drain holes, and I dont think thats avoidable. Is that ok as long as Im not trying to support the roots that poke through? Thanks

Post this q up in the thread and we all will chime in ya or nay.



Ok man?



Thanks



V

Q #1 is a moot point for me, I got some 18 oz'ers. cheers
