Garden of Green Autumn Cup

11/11/21 Remembrance day. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. Thank you Welcome to my Garden of Green Autumn cup diary. I was lucky enough to get some free samples of their Expert Seeds for their Autumn cup. Unfortunately this grow hasn't started off too well, but I'm still looking at a strong finish. So thanks in advance for reading, welcome again, & good luck with your grow, and good luck to the competition. Let's grow some wicked buds and get FUBAR :) Shall we begin?..... 2/11- SURPRISE!! My seeds were sitting in the mail box waiting for me. 1x 5+3 pack of Expert gorillas, aka Gorilla Glue #4, and a free GoG seed. The expert seeds looked really good, fat, & dark in colour. The GoG seed didn't look as good. Unfortunately it was already split open. I'll try germination straight into some soil. I promptly setup my greenhouse. I filled my cup with mineral water ph'd to 6, put 3 gorillas in. Covered in foil, set inside greenhouse on vivosun heat mat. 4/11- They've split open, now to put them into some moist EazyPlugs with a dusting of Mychorrhiaze. I use the water they were soaking in & give them 1mL in the morning & evening to keep the plugs moist. Lift plug pot up after watering to let out any excess. I want moist, not soaking. 7/11. I haven't noticed any change or seen any growth in the plug holes so i've decided to try germinate the rest of my seeds. If they all turn out, I'll try a Sea of Green in the Jungle or something. This time I soaked my EazyPlugs in plain mineral water, put 4 of the seeds direct into the plugs. I took the final gorilla seed and put it directly into some enriched potting mix/soil i had sitting out back for the veggies. I'll give them all 1mL or mineral water in the morning & evening to keep plugs moist. Now we sit & wait again. 11/11 - Yew bloody beauty!!!! 3 gorillas have broken ground! The one in the soil, & 2/4 that were planted directly into the cubes. Still waiting on the first batch. I'll move the greenhouse to the tent soon. Using a full spectrum LED fishtank light on low for 1st day. I'm not holding my breath on the first batch to be honest. 15/11- 1mL of mineral water in the evening & the morning so far, and they're looking happy. 1 in the plug is a little on the weak side, but that will hopefully change in the coming weeks with nutrients.
