Fast Buds LSD-25 in a Solo Cup

[Hero]

Greetings everyone!

I thought I would share the progression of an LSD-25 I threw into solo cup with 100% coco and fed veg+bloom ro/soft formula nothing else. She sits in my nursery section under four 4ft HO t5's. Started at around 200ppm(.4EC) with my base watering sitting at 100ppm and maxed out at 500ppm(1.0EC). Currently getting 2-3 feeds a day. She's not finished yet so I'm excited to see how big the cola gets for a solo cup. I did not expect things to go this well.

Great job! How tall is she in the most recent pic?

This is awesome. I've been fascinated with red-cup grows ever since I joined up here, but I'm too chicken/inexperienced to try one of my own yet. Good job, dude.

Thank you! Including the solo cup she is about 18-20 inches tall.

Much appreciated! I know what you mean but you just gotta pull the trigger and have some fun. Just have to be around to water it 2-3 times a day haha. I've never done any photoperiods in solos. This is actually my second auto grow and my first solo cup grow. veg+bloom makes it real easy for me.

----------------------------------

Here's an update I know it has not been long but she just hit week 9 today. Gonna drop the food or reduce it to 25% for a week in the next day or so. Then I'll let her ride out on the pH'd tap water diet till about week 12 most likely.

Right on. Getting close to finishing my first run now, and I'm not sure I'll have much room in the tent for my next run but for something like this I might just leave her out on my worktable under a spare LED and see how things go. I'm using a KISS nute system (maxibloom/silica/cal-mag) and I'm pretty much always at home so watering shouldn't be an issue. Very curious to see what kind of yield you get!

Week 10(Day 70)

Sitting at .2EC(100ppm) of pH'd tap water.

I'm letting her ride out on the pH'd tap water diet till about week 12 or whenever she feels like finishing. She's been getting no additional food since the beginning of week 9. Wasn't sure exactly when she would be done so I based it off my last auto grow although the strains are different. I figured it would be better if I started the plain water diet sooner than later.

Starting to get a slight fade and she's starting to foxtail out probably from a bit of excess N from veg+bloom since it's a 1part or maybe just the genes.

Can't wait to see how she looks upon finish. The top is starting to purple up as well.

Week 11(Day 77)

LSD-25 Auto sitting at .2EC(100ppm) of pH'd tap water.

I'm still letting her ride out on the pH'd tap water diet. She's been getting no additional food since the beginning of week 9. I probably could have given her food for another week but I didn't know for sure when she would finish. I suppose that's one of the downsides of an auto if you are not familiar with it.

She's fading pretty hard now in this last week. I suppose it doesn't take much to flush out the nutrients from a solo cup haha.

Can't wait to see how she looks upon finish.Getting some more purple colors and some swelling. I'm thinking at least another week till she's done.
