You only get one notification on something. If you don't look at it you don't get another for the same thing. So if you never looked at something a long time ago, you'll never get another update even though more posts are being made.
T macc is right, click that watched threads.

LINK TO CURRENT LIST OF PRIZES ON DYNA-GRO's WEBSITE

Welcome to the official 'The Ultimate Growing Competition' originally hosted by @Big Perm.



Dyna-Gro is now hosting a ‘run what ya' brung’ type of grow competition open to everyone! The rules are very simple. So is winning! Anyone can play!
The dates are set so that people have time to get ready. (organic soil amendments, current grow, etc.) It is an 18 week growing competition. Your grow doesn't have to go the full 18 weeks.

Rules:

Enter by posting here that you are entering the competition.

Entry closes and the competition begins March 15.

Seeds get wet, or clones get taken on March 15 with pics posted by 11:59pm PST

You claim the number of plants that you are going to run by March 15th by 11:59pm PST

Competition ends on July 19 at 12:00pm PST. Votes will be taken July 20th-24th. Winners named after.

No plant # minimum or maximum.

Indoor only.

Limited to one grow. You can move your grow around from room to room, but it must be the same grow.

You cannot start your grow over, or swap out any plants. You get one shot.

Open to all cannabis plants

Open to any growing medium, or none.

Open to all training techniques.

Open to any light source.

Open to any light cycle and any veg / flower time.

Open to anything unless stated otherwise here.

Over the time of the grow, you must explain at least once your setup to include lighting, nutrients used, media, and technique. This is a requirement.

You have 18 weeks to grow however you would like.

Each player will be assigned a number. This number will be displayed in physical form in every photo (written on a piece of paper or something. Not typed over the photo in an edit)

Player numbers will be assigned on March 15.

If your # is not in the photo in physical form the post will be deleted, as it is a violation of the rules of this competition.

Regular photos will be required on a weekly basis. You are free to post any time you would like as long as one week does not pass between photos. This will be logged. Any player not posting a pic for more than one week will be disqualified. You are encouraged to post as many pics as you like as long as your number is in each photo.

You cannot vote for yourself.

The players are the judges for everything. Holding others accountable for getting pics in on time; making sure others have their numbers in their pics; for suspecting cheating, etc..

Anyone suspected of cheating will be disqualified only after a vote has been taken from the other players.

Three ways to get disqualified: Don't post a pic in over a week. Don't vote. Cheat.

Hi just to verify. To enter I take a picture of the initial starting genetics, either the seeds or clones, with the number of how many will be entered into the contest? A break down of equipment and nutrients? Then updates periodically (once a week)? Sorry I just want to clarify

LOL!
I get it. :)

Are players allowed to cull?
I'm planning on starting 10 seeds then culling 6 out around the 3rd or 4th week of veg and grow the other 4 plants to harvest if that's allowed.
Also going to start 2 clones that are relatives of the seeds if they both take.
Can I start 4 clones and cull 2 out?

You are free to grow however you would like.
You call the plant numbers you are going to run on the 15th.

So, let's say you plan on flowering 2 plants, but you are going to use reg seeds, or you want to pick the best 2 out of some fem seeds or clones. You would say that you are starting x# seeds, and you plan on doing...?.... with them, and taking 2 to flower.

Lay it all out there. Even if you think it is boring and people might not read it, it is posted evidence if you ever have to defend a cheating claim in the future.

To enter you post here that you are entering. You'll be given a link to read.
A picture will be required of you starting within 24hrs of start time. All pics have to have your player number in them. The player numbers are assigned when it starts. It looks like you got the rest right.

@Big Perm The only rule I don't agree with is the telling of what nutes you use during .
This reason only ... because on my thread I had a guy say nice grow nice plants nice work ,,,soon as he found out I was using * nutes thats it im out .
Now my grow is based on my nutes and his opinion of the company ....since this is a thread by a nute company ... Can still be asked after comp is over to divulge such info . as winner or choice by grower .
No ?

I understand. I've seen the same thing with people biasing a vote on a strain name, too.

Over the time of the grow, you must explain at least once your setup to include lighting, nutrients used, media, and technique. This is a requirement.
  • I'll allow information in this rule to be withheld until 24hrs after the votes.
  • Deadline for this information is 11:59pm PST July 25th.
  • If you are named the winner and break this rule, you will be disqualified.

Some advice to the players:

If you are going to be doing something drastic, or changing something, do before and after pictures.

Example: Plant is 2 weeks old, pic is posted. One week goes by and no pics, then just in time the next pic is of a plant that has been moved, topped twice and trained.
The other players are the judges, so defending a plant swap claim with no pics to show anything would be hard.
You can post as many pics as you want as often as you want. Show the move, the top, the training. Show everything.
