Eternity Grow Cup 2026

Borberad Eternity Broccoli Grow Cup I'm super excited to be part of this competition again this year. The challenge is clear: to get the best out of the genetics while finding the perfect balance between nutrients and light management. For this cup, I consciously chose the photoperiodic Sticky Broccoli from Zamnesia over the auto variety to have full control over the vegetative phase and plant training. My goal is not just to raise a healthy plant, but to provoke the maximum amount of terpenes and resin production. Join me on this journey from seed to harvest! Strain Profile: Sticky Broccoli (Photoperiodic) To understand what I'm working towards, let's take a look at the details of this extraordinary strain. Feature Details Genetics Indica-dominant (Hybrid) Parent Strains Gorilla Glue x Broccoli Kush (Selection) Flowering Time 8 – 9 weeks Size (Indoor) 100 – 150 cm (strong stretch after switching) Yield Potential High / XL Color Spectrum Deep dark green with purple accents at cooler night temperatures Terpene Profile Earthy, musky with a distinct note of fresh pine resin and broccoli nuances Effect Strongly relaxing, body-focused ("Couch-Lock"), but with a clear, focused mind Week 1: Germination Week (Of course, there’s no fertilizer yet, but it needs to be entered for registration) Day 0.1 Here we go, quickly tossed the seeds in 1% H202 and just 15 hours later, they’re going into the easy plug. Day 0.8 and finally the little one is showing itself! We had already given up hope and were about to start a second one, but the little head is actually growing out of the soil. Day 0.9 and it still doesn’t really want to come out of the shell. Either it’s an extreme late bloomer or doomed to fail. Darwin sorts things out in the plant kingdom too. We’re giving a second little flower on the same path a chance to join the race. The fitter one gets to stay. Day 0.2 of the second seed and it breaks the surface. Day 0.3 Yes, it’s a little flower! Day 0.4 It’s getting a bit of osmosis water; the easy plug seems a bit dry. Day 0.5 Dry again! It’s time to move into the cube. Day 0.6 I've had seedlings that looked fitter, but it will still become a broccoli. Day 0.7 Progress is being made.
