So I posted a few pics of a micro grow I'm super interested in on Twitter.  That led to a heated debate with one of my followers.  Long story short I have to prove/replicate the concept...

60ml solo cup autoflower grow #budstick (see stunted.art on IG)

I know its possible as left an auto in a small pot for too long before transplanting.

But the pot is about 3-4 times the size and yielded much less than

 Any ideas, advice, experiences are very much welcomed.

So far the plan is coco with perlite possibly using an ebb and flow setup but OPEN TO DISCUSSION.

PLEASE DON'T BE SHY, THE ONLY BAD IDEA IS AN IDEA NOT SHARED

I'm totally down with the idea. I've seen some really amazing things like flowering plants in a shot glass. You're on track and I believe the only real trick is keeping the moisture levels and root temps ideal. I'd think about running a sterile res with H2O2 as the added oxygen in the water will aid the small root mass. Only other idea would be an auto water system you could set for very low duration a great number of times in a day. Not to hard to rig up and with small plant(s) you wouldn't need a very large res.

Growing in small container isn't easy. You need good drainage, and plenty of feeding every day. Coco with some perlite is good. But you will have to feed a couple of times a day to make sure it doesn't dry out.

I really want to get a grow off like this going, would you all be up for it?

@macky this would be fun, especially with autos. Wouldn’t even need a tent if it was a low odor strain. I’d go for a friendly comp if there’s interest.

With the big Jack Herer comp about half through (not quite), it would be good to finish one before starting a new comp. might get more to participate that way. I’ve never done essentially  bonsai Cannabis before so no giant here. Damn sure I’ll run into more than my share of issues but I’m game to try and learn in the process. Willing to lose gracefully

That's right man, growing in a small container is harrrddd!!! But you learn a lot from it. And that is winning in its own right 😉 It would be a lot of fun too. 

Gonna drill some holes in some mugs, choose some autos and fire up this comp sometime next week i think Smile

Its going to be epic. I've tried growing in a mig before, fucked it up royaly lol. But i'm willing to try it again
