Hey growers, @Plagron , and Zomnesia,
the pairing of Plagron and Zamnesia, raises serious ecological concerns. Rows of Plagron's plastic liquid nutrient bottles (often 90% water) paired with Zamnesia's heavy promotion of feminized and autoflower seeds contribute to unnecessary waste. Massive shipping emissions from heavy water weight, endless plastic pollution, spill risks sending concentrated liquids into waterways, and genetics that create dead-end, one-time-use plants while sidelining resilient regulars.
Feminized seeds (often unstable polyhybrids and unfit for breeding) and autoflowers (often 18+ hour lighting for higher electricity use, plus shorter, more resource-intensive cycles) lock growers into repeat purchases, reducing genetic diversity and long-term sustainability compared to stable, breedable regular photoperiod strains.
Dry nutrients you mix yourself (soluble powders for hydro or organic amendments for soil) are far superior ecologically and practically. Lightweight for lower emissions, minimal packaging, stable combinations (no need for multi-bottle splits due to precipitation), zero spill hazards, drastically cheaper (60-80% savings per grow), indefinite shelf life, and full customization.
Hydro growers: Proven dry salts like Jack's 321 or Masterblend dissolve cleanly and deliver professional results in any system.
Soil/organic growers: Amendments like Gaia Green build thriving microbes for slow-release feeding and superior terpenes/flavor.
To @Plagron and Zomnesia: Your customers (home and commercial) are ready for concentrated dry nutrient alternatives and more regular photoperiod seeds that empower breeding, diversity, and true sustainability without profit-driven dependency.
Fellow growers, switch to dry feeding and dry nutrients you add water yourself to, and explore regular seeds for responsible, resilient cultivation. You'll slash waste, costs, and your footprint while growing top-shelf cannabis that benefits the planet and community.
Let's make the industry genuinely green. @Patricia_Zamnesia

@The_Wanderer, 18h autos vs 12h photos is not much of a difference in electricty. In fact, you may even get greater efficacy with a context of running lights at lower wattage over 18h vs 12h. You provide the same DLI and it costs roughly the same watts over any duraction of time. watts per umol/s produce don't shift too much. My diy led strips produce 53umol/s PAR at 0.7amps constant current and 105 umol/s at 1.4amps. Gain a percent or two of efficacy at double the power flowing through it. You lose efficacy, in general, not running a driver at full load, so that's probably more than offset.
Worrying about this environmental impact is like worrying about a pinhole leak on the titanic after an iceberg rips a gaping hole in it. The overall behaviours of everyday life, especially in more developed nations is a grotesquery of modern times. People that think they are 'green' often are far from it, but they feel super good about themselves while doing useless things. The scale of this pending catastrophe is far beyond simple acts.
heart is in the right place...

🤔 Why is growing not Olympic yet? We need a Grolympiad every four years or so. With disciplines such as the smallest bonsai, the largest tree, the oldest plant, the thickest bud, most terpenes, the highest CBD and THC values with grow teams from all countries... I would still think of a lot...
Sorry I just dreamed.🤣

Hi all!
Good luck to everyone competing. I'm looking forward to it, although I can't start any time soon. Hope I'm in time.
@Plagron are we allowed to use different base nutrients? I'm using all Plagron additives already but switched to different base nutes.

That R80s box would be nice to win for seedlings but....
I will better off buying it new than to waste the 3-4 months of time and resources using give-away-quality seeds and be missing out on a better result and better harvest from superior genetics.
Growing high quality genetics equals a guaranteed win for me.
Like the Abshar-I-Afghani bud here. That's the real trophy.
I'm staying in the winners circle by using critical thinking skills.
Do the math people. Do the math.

Lol, another one of those things where nobody has to finish harvesting?? Sorry, not sorry, but getting through flowering isn't a problem. The beginning and the end are the hardest part. I've seen so many...Their harvests are probably even rotten. I learned a lot, but in my opinion the rankings were rubbish... I don't care where I was, I'm only interested in the fact that others were really awesome but weren't in the top 3.
I wish everyone lots of luck and fun with their growing and the cup, but remember one thing: the less you invest, the less disappointment you'll feel if it doesn't work out.
The real winners are those who grow their Choosen genetics and are happy with it.

Hello, I can't access the webpage.
Note that googeling "zamnesia" I get to "zamnesia.io", but the contest link points to "*.com", but even changing to "https://www.zamnesia.io/growdiaries-contest/eternity2026" it does not work.
Any help?
EDIT:
Found it!!! If you are from italy this is the link -- "https://www.zamnesia.io/it/concorso-growdiaries/eternity2026"
