here's some good reading

Yogurt Cup Grow Contest
Round 7; 2015​

This contest is open to ALL icmag members; there are NO restrictions at all on environment / equipment / method, only the container size. (The primary rule being that roots must remain entirely inside yogurt cup at all times). The true purpose of the contest in my eyes is to drive participation & cooperation on the site and bring members together in a spirit of sharing knowledge and experiences of growing in tiny containers.


RULES
Read Closely

1) All contestants must use an individual serving food container, generally yogurt (labeled as 6 oz serving size here in the states, or 150 to 180 grams for Europe and most everywhere else) of any shape or brand (these will generally have a maximum volume of 250 mL).
250 milliliters maximum volume is the official size limit. No substitutions/transplants (plants must remain in original container throughout the contest). Keep the original label on there, and show it in a photo if you plan on covering it later.

2) All contestants will use a clone, seed, or seedling of any Cannabis variety, male or female. Please specify strain/hybrid/breeder lineage in as much detail as possible (or even if it's a bag seed; tell what kind of herb was it in the bag the seed came from).

3) Contestants can enter up to 5 "yogurt cup plants" (one plant per cup), and will choose the best one to be judged.

4) Seedlings may be germinated or not at the time of entry; Clones maybe rooted or not at time of entry as well.

5) All roots must remain inside the yogurt cup for the duration of the challenge and may require trimming. Any type of feeding is allowed, but if roots grow out the bottom of the container they must be trimmed immediately and not be outside the container (once again, 250 mL maximum capacity.

6) Harvest must be no more than 20 weeks from today, that's November 9th 2015 . You can enter and finish ANY time between now and and thee 9th of November, but MUST be harvested with finished product pictures and smoke report by November 9th 2015.

7) Keep the photos and updates regular, one per week at least. Showing a ruler or something for scale in pics goes a long way! Missing 3 or more weeks without any update disqualifies a contestant, so keep up steady updates for maximum participation and to be considered in the winners poll.

8) Winner will be decided by a poll posted after the competition is completed. Prize will be a pack of seeds from Seedbay/Seedboutique. Winner will contact OldPink to coordinate receiving their prize. Thanks to Payaso, OldPink & Explosiv for making this happen!

9) It is expected of all contestants to keep a good attitude in the spirit of community and sharing of knowledge and experiences. Let's all have FUN.

Completed Yogurt Cup Grows will be judged by the ICMAG community in a poll upon completion of the contest. Finished grows will be judged on:
Quality of the information given
Frequency and presentation of updates
Quality of photographs and / or videos
Explanation & details
Design of the grow (concept)
Smoke report
Answers to questions about the grow
Quality & Quantity of the harvest

Last but not Least; a list of micro container growing history on ICmag (some great info and grows in these threads):

Looking good everyone. Hey Eighths-n-Aces you feeding it heavy nuts? Kinda looks like nutrient burns but I am stumped man =/. Wish I could help you better. Still all that being said she will still yield nicely for what you did man. Great job none the less.

Update on my yogi cups. Unfortunately time will not be on my side as I was wanting my yogi cups to get much much bigger before I flipped. They will all be forced to go into flowering in 2 weeks as my main 5' x 5' scrog will be ready to flip. Next round I will have a tent just for them during veg to avoid this from happening again.

1. Rare Darkness GTH #1 clone cut. Decided to LST her since she is a very lanky gal. The buds on her fall over once they get any kind of weight on her it's really sad lol.
2. Ace's BK x HP. Getting taller finally with huge leaves still.
3. G13's Double Black got topped twice instead of once. Looking around the same just a little bigger now.
4. Bog's Bogbubble turned out to be a female. Couldn't be happier it's a female. Topped and cloned for goodness. Really wish she was bigger cus I think she's gonna be tasty.

Not a entry into the contest but I have a nice looking G13 Labs White Widow in a 20 oz party cup ( 350 ml of coco ). If she turns out like the last WW I did but didn't clone ( wasn't cloning at that time ) she is a very hammering and lovely stone. Heavy coated buds that looked almost all white.

[Twist]

Thank you. I got off to a late start don't think I'll be able to finish in time.

 

[Eighths-n-Aces]

Hey Eighths-n-Aces you feeding it heavy nuts?

not anything more than i usually do.

i know he pics are shitty as usual so it's tough for you to see what i'm seeing but i'm pretty sure she's crashing. i don't think it's nute burn but with everything going south it's hard to tell.

i think the main problem is some crazy fucker (that'd be me) decided to try and get a ridiculously large harvest out of an insanely small cup and pushed too far again.

 

[Avinash.miles]

this round ends nov 9th, so next round will start after voting on this round ends... probably early december or so....

 

[trichrider]

we're having fun now....
they're still alive. not that that means much relative to size. the limits and bounds of sanity being re-tested and challenged.
who knows where that points? rhetoric aside, anyone who keeps alive a flowering plant in a container this small has some account of what is actually happening.
well done!
we can at least laugh at ourselves and giggle with an understanding that life exists, and where life exists, we rule. Go Seahawks!

i like the drawing
