contest Growdown Throwdown 2019 Sri Lanka - Chilli Red!

Who's all letting seeds hit moisture when the clock strikes 12:01?
 
Here is a little something to hold you over until then (Chili Red featured towards the end): 
"As promised, here is the Official 2018 Garden Walk Through and Year In Review. As you may have noticed by now, our format will not always be the same as everyone else's traditional YouTube channel. Sometimes, I'll want to get more artsy than "informative" and when we have ideas for cool videos, we will run with them. Sometimes, there is so much more that can be said by not talking. I hope you all enjoy the break from the norm and stick around for more content to come! We recommend using your favorite headphones for the best viewing experience."
 
Planted!

Man what a beautiful vid, Rich! Between the music, the cinematography and the subject matter (hey, it was 20 below here this morning!!), you yanked at almost every emotion I generate!
 
I'm taking a different approach this time, not going to plant so early. When I was doing the Aji Lemon Drop Growdown I had a rough time bringing my specimen up so early in the conditions of Zone 3. I think I'll wait just a bit. I think the Zerex soak slowed initial growth, being as everyone knows why an antifreeze makes such a necessary seed treatment here in the glacial plain.....
 
That being said, Anuums do freakin' awesome things in the land of the 16 hour summer days.....
 
Again, that video, what a fantastic job!!

I got home late last night, and I was like "hey I can start some growdown seeds lol.

On that note, was there a time zone we were using to start the seeds? Started mine at 1am central time lol
 

Eastern Standard I guess ha. Dont matter lol

How do the root riot plugs compare to rock wool cubes?
 
Though I can't help with that comparison, Paul, I can tell you that they have kept my Rocoto cuttings alive for a very....long....time....without generating a single root. The algea is clouding up the shot glasses pretty good though...
 
I do believe I'll try one with these Sri Lanka seeds, though.....just to see...
