I like the look of the plants in the yellow cups and think they could be nice female plants
On the first day of flower they were given first feeding and sprayed with a neem oil mixture.There was some leaves damaged from that but the new growth about 3+ nodes seems good.
About day 4 of flower I gave them a drink of some compost water and not so saturateing the cups this time.
By the looks of them I will add my calmag next water tomorrow I think but not sure with what yet.I have to figure out if I have some rooting nutrients to give them now, I think the yellow ones are gonna have some good growth soon because 2 inch plants in flower is not so cool right now.
I will being soaking new seeds to be grown out for me to clone off then flower to get a consistant flow going next year by the time it gets going.

Here is the Berry Bomb at 79 days flower.I want it to at least hit 84 days then I will chop her and clean out space and keep up my fight against spidermites on the babies.
I screwed up getting the clones to my friends for there time frame and I am starting to think they are a waste of time now as for even being worth while if they even show new growth, 37 days from cutting and they rooted within 2 weeks but reverting back to growth hormones from that far into flower is stressing them hard.

Last night I finally chopped the berry bomb at 84 days flowering.
I was checking my solo cup plants and I seen the first pistil on my now female thc bomb
I also watered them last night with 2.5ml bloom 2.5ml grow 7.5 camg 10ml bioroot 2.5ml bioweed to a gallon of sat out tap water.I am just flushing this mixture through them since my stuff drains well and they looked fine this morning which at light out I sprayed again with a neem oil mixture.I hope that doesnt hurt them this time
starting on 10/24/14 I soaked 3 different seeds
1 fem blue cheese 1 fem purple bud and 1 fem critical
usually after 1 day I put in paper towel because they split already but this time that didnt happen until after 2 days on the blue chees and purple but not the critical.I put them all in the wet paper towel and seen tap roots on those 2 last night to plant in solo cups to start out. I used the same mix I made for the other solo cup grow plants 1 part perlite 1 part homemade sifted compost and 1/2 part store ewc and 1/2 home produced castings.
The 2 that sprouted came from herbies recently and the critical was from a past sponsor from maybe a year ago.I have seen KingJohnC show his matchbox with light sandpaper a couple times and finally I am on the journey to make one to help germinate better from now on

Thankyou for checking in on my grow

When I first soaked those seeds I was putting together a mix for them to grow in later.I used the last of my compost and bought castings and emptied out some almost empty fertilizers like "Epsoma" Bone Meal,Gypsum and Seabird Guano.Also some high P Sunleaves bat guano too. I didnt use any fresh vermicompost in this batch but plan to in teas and to the mulch they will get someday.
Then I went outside and sifted the compost barrel for this winter's use in my closet.
I covered it with that plastic for a few days for a solarization try in cooler weather now and will bucket it in the shed.This will be added to next mixes and teas and as mulch for my plants in the closet this winter.

My solo grow plants are at 14 days flower here and have shown some growth and the sign of a lady on the thc bomb
my female thc bomb has grown almost 3 inches in the last week now standing 5 inches
not as much for the sweet god but OK looking,just would be better on seeing a pistil
here is #2 and it has some mottled colors or bleached look when you can see it better than this
for the unknown one it has always looked like this and grew 2 consecutive 3 lobe leaf nodes before hitting 5.After spraying it with the neem I bent it sideways and finally just staked it with a skewer

Just a natural worm helping out my outdoor compost garbage can that went through the sifter.There is holes in the bottom of that can for life to come and go.I had to put a plastic barrier on the ground because one year the nearest tree had grown roots right up into it leaving me feeling violated.Life stills can make it in except those roots now.I know there has to be some egg cocoons in there or babies that I usually find later on. I have to keep my recycled mix alive even if I cant grow no tills.It dries out in the bins and gets dusty.The stuff Im reusing was first used like 2 years ago and keeps on going
that's awesome man! your compost sounds dank.
cool to hear about the tree's roots growing into it.. the tree was like.. "whats this?, oh fuck yeah, some compost"!

I am glad to be back here again after what felt a long time from 
I have pictures to download and lots of catching up to do on my subscriptions.My family enjoyed the last couple weeks without cable and internet or the land phone
I Made oil,attempted making seeds,transplanted,started attempt at growing potato's in the closet.
The veg side is doing good for me with my 2 seed plants purple bud and blue cheese and the 2 old senior citizen clones berry bomb and jack herer all looking healthy. I have 3 females from the 4 solo cup grow challenge thc bomb, sweet god and unkown one with a dude sweet god I tried to use for seeds only on the other sweet god.These are turning out to be hard for me to grow being new to me strains and in these little cups.I have to go see how things are over there
I hope everyone is well and keeping them green

They both were transplanted into about a one gallon pot in my ammended mix and had some mycos sprinkled on the roots and bottom of transplant hole. There was also a small handfull of cottonseed meal sprinkled in too.My plans are to mother them out shortly were I will transplant again and flip around Feb or March 2015

Big Buddha Blue Cheese Feminised Seeds Info
Blue Cheese was created, first, by selecting a blueberry male from the entire collection of several different breeder versions of blueberry.
The selected male was then crossed with our proud mother, and the backbone of many of our breeding projects; the original U.K. cheese.
From these crosses a male with extremely fruity characteristics was chosen as the father of our Blue Cheese
and here is some info from the purple bud breeder

Feminized strain
Heavy Yield
Temperate / Continental
Compact plant
Short flowering period (50 - 65 days)
75% Indica
White Label Cannabis Seeds Company Purple Bud Feminised Seeds Info
This is a high-potency, heavy-yielding feminized Afghani with a hint of Sativa and a strong purple tendency. Purple Bud Feminized is easy to cultivate indoors, even for beginners, and will flourish outdoors in the spring and summer of a temperate climate.
Purple Bud feminized is bred from some of the most important cannabis gene-pools in the world. Her parents and ancestors can be traced directly to the legendary Indica cultivars of Afghanistan’s Hindu Kush region, to the California medicinal marijuana scene and, naturally, to Europe’s weed-breeding epicentre, the Netherlands
Two pure Afghanica cultivars are the main influence behind Purple Bud Feminized, and are the source of this hybrid’s high potency, swift flowering, dense buds and sturdy frame. The more distant Sativa ancestor is a sought-after Jamaican variety which gives Purple Bud a little extra height and a lot of extra high to complement her body-centred Indica stone. The final stage in the breeding of our all-female Purple Bud seed-strain was to cross this 75% Afghani with a stunning Kush hybrid made from Dutch-bred Hindu Kush and a US purple Kush.
Purple Bud’s purple colours are most commonly seen in her flowers, not just in the leaves (as is often the case for cannabis strains where the purple tendency is weaker). While her leaves often change colour as well, it’s not uncommon to see Purple Bud Feminized finish with green leaves that serve to accentuate her deep purple buds. The strain does not require a cold snap to bring on her colour change and will often turn violet in normal temperatures.
Buds of the mature plant are thick, solid and spiky with great expansion, covering a majority of stem and branches by harvest time. Her purple floral clusters are thickly frosted with sparkling resin glands and possess a rich pine-sandalwood aroma with sweet undertones.
