I'll be tempted to re-pot into coco then. Plus my cup is only 14 ounce and I'm getting cup envy.
I think the rules should be clarified to say that the main thing is- the roots stay in the cup - but a reservoir is ok ? ( I think?)[/QUOTE]

"Cup envy". Bwah ha ha ha

So it seems some of us would like using a reservoir, initially I was against it and only wanted to use whatever can be contained within the solo cup. After thinking about it for a bit I can see that setting up a watering system to water a solo cup can be a challenge all in its own. What do the community think, hand water only or resevoir ok?

I would vote yes on a reservoir...Let 'em do it and give them their own class to compete and see who does it best.

Damn I only have 1 lamp and its already being used :-(

Would have loved to participate, maybe next time ! I'll follow this thread for sure tho, especially the beer can from Nivek !

There's definitely a difference between something like DWC with massive roots dangling in the res, and autowatering- where the entire plant and roots is still contained in the cup. Hell, even the rainwater I use for my grow is contained in storage reservoirs. I couldn't qualify unless I put in a tap

I'm pretty sure you got the date wrong on that cup Nivek, unless you have a time machine... If you do, PM me I have some questions about the future.

I guess my water comes from a resevoir from the east side of the dam lol. What I meant was no reservoirs for automated watering but we threw that out the window. The rules are go directly into flower and roots must be contained in solo cup or container with equal or less medium as a solo cup.

[Bearded Budz]

Not sure if this counts as a resivoir though...

How's this for a cool little planter? It holds just a tad bit less than an 18 oz. solo cup and I got from a past Chia Pet purchase.

Any container of equal or less quantity is fine to use I hope.

[Cola Monster]

Another cool container I found while scurrying around my shop, or one I'm going to modify to become a planter if acceptable. It holds about as much as a 16 oz. cup and I submit to the head honcho running the contest for approval.

 

[Marzbadrock]

Looks good to me cola
