Happy 4/20 all, even if a little early while writing this.
This is my journal into the Seedstockers Gelato 41 4/20 Solo Cup Challenge 2021, sponsored of course by overly generous
Seedstockers.com and @Seedstockers-Mark on our amazing autoflower.net 
Also to @St. Tom for the organisation.
I am very pleased to be taking part in this competition, and being able to enjoy these new genetics - never mind the prize that's up for grabs, a $1000 over 3 places.
So I am here to stake my claim on some of that, and bring you Gelato 41 in 3 Ways.
First way is my usual, soil & perilte. The soil will be Bio Bizz All Mix. It is a first for me using expensive soil, but I thought I'd splash out.
Second way is in a standard Hempy Bucket. This is a mix of 2 parts perlite to 1 part vermiculite and then treated as hydro. I have done one of these before, many moons ago, and liked the results.
Third way is a non-standard Hempy Bucket. This is the same as above, but with an added solar pump which keeps a tiny res within the cup topped up & oxygenated feed. This is the one I've invested a lot of thinking time in, and most probably the one that will fall on its face & not make it. I do like a challenge though.
Thinking on it, that's probably still only 2 ways, but I've decided on the title now so we're just going to brush over it.
Kit is:
80x80x160cm Tent.
250w HPS. 20/4 for the duration.
Ionic nute range (Soil & Hydro).
Bio Bizz All Mix soil.
Please take a seat and grab your favourite smoking device, we have some work to do.
