Missed out on the Outdoor Contest last year as Canada wasn’t eligible and this year it was announced a bit too late. C’est la vie. Hopefully Delicious Seeds will have another outdoor contest next year. Best of luck to everybody.

Dear @Nadorcoti , I started a second diary for growing in DWC. Do you know if there is any possibility for participating with another diary, too? As there are different ways of growing it is not possible to report them in just one diary. Thank you 🌸

All growers that arent in the contest, must re‑submit their diary to the contest category so the entry is officially registered. If your diary was created before the fix, you need to enroll it again. Let’s get those entries in! 🌱🔥
