Here’s just today, I noticed her popping her first pistols. Leaves are praying, despite already being root bound, roots are poking out from the bottom of the cup (I mistakenly let the cup rest in the drain tray) so I’m air pruning and then back to watering as often as she’s dry.

This weeks been crazy, since having surgery on my knee on Monday, and seeing how much growth this girl exhibited. It was amazing, I’ve gotten a really nice structure built using LST, I think all of her branches will stretch nicely and stack up some thick colas.

Another week in the books for this beaut. Her structure is absolutely stunning, she’s got real tight node spacing, and beautiful white whisps popping out of multiple cola sights. She’s definitely gonna be a sight to see.

Ok so this week started out strong, but throughout I’d noticed a serious stunt. Inspecting revealed that her root tips had just started to rot, I think because of insufficient drainage as I didn’t have a raise for her drain tray, so she was just sitting in the run off until it dried up if I forgot to dump it, which I did. So I opted out of the solo cup and in order to save her I moved her to a 5 gal, with phosphorus amendment about 3/4 down, mychos, and switched nutes to GHE Flora (Lucas Formula) in hopes that the addition of the micros in the pair would assist in her salvation. Fingers crossed.

She ended up bouncing back beautifully from the issues I had. Her stocks turning back from purple to white/green, buds kept developing and even survived a bud swell (back building) around week 6 of flower (week 9 now) I just gave her the final feeding before I start a 10 day flush period before delving her into darkness for two days before harvest.

Nice!!! Ive been doing some solo cup grows, also.. Got a Bloody Skunk Auto from Sweet Seeds goin on week 4 now.. This is my first time using an auto for a solo cup grow.. I usually top at 1st or 2nd node, and mainline.. I also been growing them inside of a suitcase that I rigged up for seedlings.. But I didnt have anywhere to put one of my seedlings so I started doing this.. Its fun.. Have a little extra smoke on the side or in between harvests thanks to the good ol solo cup grows... "Blah blah sHeS gOnNa gEt RoOtBoUnD blah blah"... Whatever bruh lol

@Professor_Chaos, yea I agree homie. This was my first try at a solo cup, and I messed up and the root tips started to rot because I forgot to dump it’s drain tray and it sat in the water. I transplanted into a 5gal pot and ima try again here soon.
