Well, i tried one with a PPP clone, roots are there like crazy, but it doesnt look so hot.
Any ideas?:?

Looked like Pic three when she went into the hempy cup.
Give it 3-4 days to hit the bottom of the cup and it will probably take off. My clones sometimes droop too when first taking root in the hempys.

Are you watering down the stem daily? You should until it hits the res in the bottom.

lol . I don;t even grow this way but I might switch to it from SOG when I get my MMJ

Ok, it has been like two days but, i read Bonemans thread last night and he said it took like a week for the roots to hit the bottom. Maybe i need to practice better patience...LOL!!!!!

Well, i was watering the whole cup, untill i read last night about only watering the area around the stem. I guess that helps it from being over watered?
Thats what it looks like happened.
I know, i wanna try this and maybe do a hempy SOG grow in 42 OZ fountain drink cups. That should be sweet!!!LOL

Thanks to both of you guys, i'll try to keep ya updated on how this works for me. Thanks again!:leaf:

howdo you guy cut the bottoms off your pots when transplantint to larger buckets?? i've got 4 in red beer cups and dont want to cut off a bunch off the roots when i move them to there 2gal buckets
I use one of those snap blade knives and put the blade out 1 click. It's just long enough to go through a styrofoam cup.

Damn...that was a long 137 pages...took me ab 1.5 days to finish the whole thing. Anyways I have just started some Lsd and PPP seedlings in hempy and can't wait to see what happens. I'll throw some pics later once i get a little more progress. Also I thought people might be interested to know walmart has some great little green pots (they were mentioned somewhere i read about 7 hours ago) that I had before reading this thread. I now realize since they have bottoms that make them flood and a drain point almost 2" up they are perfect for hempy. I read some concerns ab their drain holes being clogged but I just broke out the bottom of the real pot a little to make it impossible to clog. I can't wait till that tap hits the rez :)

wow they all look great
Saves alot of space using 16 oz cups, and money too!
Learned that the SOLO brand plastic cups are much more durable for cutting the drainage hole in the side. the classic red cups are thin and tear easy, making big cracks down the cup.
