Good Luck y'all. May the circumstances be in Yer favor.
Hey everyone! I hope we are all having a good night. I just thought I would give a little news on how we are moving along. We ARE moving along, I promise, albeit slowly
Anyways! I have an OFFICIAL START DATE finally!!! we are going to be starting the cotest on: MONDAY, JULY 29th, 2013 --- 7/29/2013!!!
Ok guys, so that is the date we are going to get started, we are going to allow 20 days for 'veg' to basically germ, get started and run 24 and 0 and get them going and bigger, after that we are switching one of three time period, I personally DO NOT care if you want to run 20/4 or 18/6 or 15/9 or whatever, i really dont give a shit, BUT the max number of hours that will be aloud after the 'veg period' is 20 hours, cannot be anymore than 20 hours. after that we will go by ear on the end date of the contest, i want everyone to be able to grow their plant out to the maximum that THEY want to grow, if others harvest a little earlier then no problem, just take pics for later refrence so judges can look back and start your trim/dry/cure process....once all the bud for every member has been in a jar for 10 days (more is fine to) we will then start picking winners at this time! i want to wish EVERYONE the BEST OF LUCK, and please guys LETS HAVE FUN!!!! thats what this is about!
Now, for prizes...we are still trying to figure out ALL of the category prizes, and i want some of it to be a surprise for the winner at the end of the contest (mostly the grand prize winner, but everyone may receive bonus' and freebies if they are an honorable mention!)
but anyways : The Grand Prize of the Auto-flower solo cup contest will be : 50 dollar 'gift card' for the grand prize winner to be spent AT THEIR CHOICE OF BUSINESS. They can get things like: seeds from a seedbank if theyd like. I also have no problem getting them their choice of 50 dollars worth of equipment at ANY garden store or hydro shop that accepts gift cards or at last credit card transactions. Please be aware of picking a place when you do that I WILL be able to get you your prize! The grand prize winner will also receive a bottle of THEIR choice of nutrients or nutrient solution/additive. there will be about 30-40 dollar limit on this, but they can get one nice bottle of nutrients of their choice. i will also as i said be giving out a surprise gift for winning the grand prize and for participating! i am going to keep this secret til toward the end for some incentive
Now, for the category winners that will be judged by mods that were selected by me and a special member judge TEKDC911
the prizes for the best outdoor and indoor category as well as the best sativa and best indica auto solo cup: A nice pipe chosen by either me or our special friend dankshizzle may be donating some beautiful hand made pipes by him. I will make sure they are beautiful pipes, as time goes i WILL post pics of what the pipes look like and as long as we dont have fights on choosing i will let the winners PICK the pipe they want, i am hoping to have a selection of about 10 or so pipes to choose from, all withing the 20-40 dollar range.
There is one more category after this, this is the 'highest yielding' category, the winner of this category will receive a 25 dollar gift card to their choice of store ( again the same guidelines apply for the overall winner ) The highest yield winner will also win a beautiful pipe out of the same stock for the other category winners. the winner for this category will also be receiving a surprise gift for winning this category as well as the overall winner will. the over-all prize will obviously be better than the highest yield prize, but it will still be a great prize, i promise!
now the voting system, what we are going to do for the indoor, outdoor, indica and sativa categories will be chosen by the JUDGES of the competition, the judges are as follows, PotPimp, sunni, tekdc911, me and 2 other mods, we are not sure who but they will be finalized by the start of the contest. ok guys thats all i got for now, i knowits been awhile coming and ive worked hard on getting this to work, i just want to emphasize to PLEASE HAVE FUN, dont be negative and remember this contest is for FUN! not dick measuring so lets keep it that way, there should be nothing but positive vibes here, and if anyone continually is disruptive and negative then we have the right to disqualify them if they are in the contest, i really hope that it wil never come to this and it will not happen, but please dont mistake our kindness for weakness, we will act if we have to and sunni WILL take the appropriate actions for nasty, name calling or generally inappropriate posts. anyways, sleepy time for me guys, i hope everyone has a wonderful rest of their night and morning.
stay tuned for pics of the prizes and some other cool stuff that we will be mentioning along the way!
I am going to advertise on all of the sub forums or at least the most popular ones to try and attract not only as many people as we can to enter in the contest but also to just watch the sub to the contest. we want to try and get the word out guys, so mail ur friends! anyways. no more info tonight, im sure this is already a freakin wall of text so sorry for the bleeding eyes gentlemen, ladies and queen sunni !
good
night
