Greenthumb85 The start of the Eternity Grow Cup 2026 has arrived and the seeds have been planted. Thanks to the sponsors Zamnesia and Plagron for setting this up again.
Zamnesia have provided the seeds of a variety called Sticky Broccoli.
Plagron have supplied us with the booster Green Sensation.
All relevant info to the strains and products can be found on their websites
3 seeds have been put into a small shot glass of water two days ago and I'm glad to announce 100% germination. After the seed husk had cracked and the tap root is visible, it's was time to plant these beans into some real soil.
Soil mix for the seeds is 4 liters of Plagron Pro Mix, 750 ml of Plagron Perlite and 250 ml of Biobizz Worm Castings. For 5 liters of mixed substrate I added 1 gram of Green House Feeding Bio Grow. The seeds have been planted in 500 ml pots and watered gently.
Once the seeds break the surface they will be put under some lights to grow.
I wish everyone participating all the best. Happy growing and may the best buds win ;)

Greenthumb85 So all 3 seeds germinated and broke the surface of the soil. They stretched quite a bit and are now under 200 PPFD. Will slowly increase this to 300 PPFD this week.
They receive a little water every day and are slowly developing their first sets of leaves.
Not much happening at the moment so let's just watch them grow.
Thanks again to Zamnesia for providing the Sticky Broccoli beans for the grow.
Happy growing.

Greenthumb85 So the girls are all looking healthy and vibrant. They have started getting some new sets of leaves and are in veg. As the pots are only intended for the first 2 to 3 weeks I will re-pot them soon. Bigger pots and fresh nutrients will give the roots more space to spread out and for the plants to gain strength. Still only watering a little bit every two days and keeping the humidity high at around 70 % with temps around 25 degrees Celsius.
Looking forward to the next few weeks. Excited to see what these ladies can do.
Thanks to Plagron for the competition update/clarification. Thanks to Zamnesia for providing the Sticky Broccoli strain for this grow.

Greenthumb85 The girls are looking pretty good even though they got over watered once while still in the small pots.
I decided to repot into 3 liter pots since the girls need some food and space to grow. After re-pot they were given some Bio-Enhancer to kick off the vegetative stage.
They have bounced back really well and are starting to look quite healthy again. They should be back on track by next week.
Thanks again to Plagron and Zamnesia.
