GolliGrows Introduction - The Ladies’ First Cup
Tea Room Notes:
Lady Rosalind: “It appears our comfort is to be recorded.”
Lady Eleanor:
“Then let us hope the gardener understands that comfort must be maintained.”
Lady Beatrice: “Quite. One does not announce competence — one demonstrates it.”
Lady Rosalind: “At present, I find the conditions… agreeable.”
Lady Eleanor:
“Warmth is consistent. Moisture restrained. No immediate cause for concern.”
Lady Beatrice: “Let us reserve judgment. He has merely avoided mistakes — so far.”
About This Grow:This diary documents our first participation in a cultivation contest.
Three Sticky Broccoli plants are cultivated under controlled indoor conditions.
Rather than intentions or promises, this diary reflects how the plants respond over time —
to their environment, to handling, and to necessary interventions.
A fourth plant is present during the propagation phase only, sharing the same early environment.
It will be moved to a separate setup once seedlings emerge and is not part of the competition grow.
Intent & Philosophy:
Calm, structured development
Manageable plant size and proper airflow
Deliberate, well-timed structural interventions with sufficient recovery periods
Quality over excess
Clear and transparent documentation throughout the entire grow
Day 1
Propagation | Waiting Properly
Tea Room Notes
