I've never done a solo cup grow so thought I'd give it a go. I'm not expecting a massive yield for obvious reasons this is just a bit of fun. Currently under 1 250w quantum board but started under viparspectra 300

All good this week. Still on plain water, was tempted to top but thought better of it as I've never grown a solo so will just leave it do its own thing.

Very early stages of flowering kicked in this week, I'm not going to lie I'm surprised she's still alive with the little attention she's been given. Got to hand it to RQS they make resilient plants

I've had to move the solo cup grow to another tent under a 300w viparspectra as she was getting completely drowned out in the main tent. I have to admit I've neglected her a little with no training and a bit underfed. Looks like she's just going to be 1 main cola. Should make the eventual trim easy anyway 😂

Have her a little bit of grow nute this week and a little bit of extra CalMag as she was very pale and showing a few deficiencies. It's definitely helped as she's looking way better and starting to add weight to her buds.

Well this was a bit of a fail on my part in the end, buds ended up pretty brown and poor. No reflection on the strain just my skill as a solo cup grower

This was a massive fail on my part, was going quite well for a while but due to a hernia operation the grow got neglected and went pretty brown. No reflection on the strain though, this will be going in to edibles. I'll definitely be trying another solo cup grow in future

Must admit I'm impressed. I figure it would be root bound and sick. Nice job mate!

@TheUndercoverGrower, The problem is Cannabis needs more soil than a small cup provides in order to grow. But you really got it going in that cup.

@SativaKid, thanks mate. Its doing OK. I have seen some solo cup grows turn in to monsters but I am not there yet haha.

@James,thanks James. I've never done a solo so if it even makes it to harvest I'll class it as a success 😂
