GroloCup The largest of the 5 seeds was selected for this run. She's going to get a swim in a 60/40 solution of Hydrogen Peroxide and purified water to awaken the Broccoli beast within the shell. Thanks to Plagron and Zamnesia for allowing me the opportunity to participate in the 2026 Eternity Cup! I'll be using my standard 1 gallon Groloponix Bucket and MegaCrop 1-Part as the base nutrients and adding CalMag and Green Explosion once we begin to hit flower. @Patricia_Zamnesia better keep her eye on this one!

GroloCup She's the sprinter of the winter run, looking strong and really rooting up. She.looks like she's going to be ready for the Groloponix system sooner than her running mates at this point! I'm thinking she'll be moved to the big tent by weeks end to begin her journey into eternity!

GroloCup She's definitely enjoying the big light and a little bigger shoes to grow into. So far she's been the sprinter out of the gate. Hopefully we stay on course and continue with this strong start!

GroloCup Began adding clips and upping the nutrient concentration to try to keep up with her growth spurt. Added some insulation to the tent floor to offset these cold temps we've been having here. She's definitely looking the part with some great side branching. Here's to another week of greatness that even @Patricia_Zamnesia should be impressed by 😏.

GroloCup Flower time is upon us and we've changed up the food to keep her in the fast lane for growth. She's been an easy rider so far, not really acting out or being less than a perfect tent mate. Hopefully the Plagron kicks her into overdrive and we see why they call her Sticky by weeks end.

GroloCup Steady progress and enjoying the effects of the Plagron Green Sensation. I'd say she's in full on flower and the stretch has finished up. Continuing to adjust the pH to 5.6 and allowing it to drift to 6.3 then swapping out what's left in the buckets with a fresh drank has been the move this run, as well as staying consistent with my use of CalMag prior to showing any deficiencies has her on the fast track!

GroloCup Another week of steady growth and development, but she lacks the WOW factor, and the only difference between her and her 2 tent mates was the Plagron, so I've decided to switch up to Bud Explosion as a PK booster and see if that will wake up her sticky side. Since the swap, I have notices a bit more praying when I'm in the tent, which would tell me she's feeling a little pep in her step, and hopefully that eventually unlocks her genetical secrets and she lets everyone know why they named the strain STICKY BROCCOLI 🥦!

GroloCup I think she's finally gonna show me some buds! After a slow but steady flower stage, she seems to have made the turn and is really developing some big, beautiful flowers. She's definitely as nice a plant as I've seen of the Autoflowering entries in the contest, so I'm feeling like I'm in the running, just gonna stay the course and push her to finish strong!

GroloCup She's blown up, and the bud size is phenomenal! Great work by the breeders at Zamnesia. She's starting to show some color and there's definitely some yellowing of her lower leaves telling me she's about to go through her final stage and also find her way into an ice bath! The swap from Plagron to Bud Explosion was a game changer! That stuff is the real deal!

GroloCup She just won't stop! Definitely a weighty girl, the tops just continue to bulk up. She's got an unusual smell, not overpowering, just funky. She'll continue to get the full dosage of nutrients through the week. Of she's gonna keep growing, she's gonna eat!

GroloCup She's getting the total flush and will be ready to harvest within a few days. She's been a joy to grow and is one of the largest Autoflowers I've ever grown. She definitely is a beast for being grown in a 1 gallon hydro bucket. Thanks again to Zamnesia and Plagron for the chance to run with the big dawgs and show everyone how the Groloponix system produces! She's heavy, the fade is perfect, and the documentation has been impeccable, plus my auto is bigger than most of the photoperiod plants in the contest. Bring me my cup!!!
