👉Eternity Grow Cup Judging Criteria👈
Your grow will be judged across 8 different categories using a Judge Score Card. Ten judges will each evaluate your grow with a score card. Your total score is the sum of all 10 Judge Score Cards combined. The maximum possible score is 1,000 points.
The grower with the highest total score wins the Eternity Grow Cup 2026. The second-highest score wins second place, and so on
👉What happens in case of a tie?👈
If there’s a tie within the top 3 positions or between 10th and 11th place, the grow with the highest score in the “Overall Bud Appearance” category takes the lead. If it’s still a tie, the next deciding factor will be the “Trichome Density” score, followed by “Plant Development.”
👉De Judge Score Card👈
1. Plant development (start to finish) -- … / 15
2. Bud photo quality -- … / 10
3. Bud size -- … / 10
4. Trichome density -- … / 10
5. Overall bud appearance -- … / 30
6. Minimum 1 weekly update (text) -- … / 10
7. Minimum 1 weekly update (photo) -- … / 10
8. Smiley Harvest -- … / 15
All 10 judges will evaluate your diary, plant, and final results at their own discretion using this score card. Judging is based on your Grow Diary and photo material.
Check growdiaries.com/ for more information about the “Smiley Harvest” category.

I’ve decided to skip the contest this year. Honestly, if last year’s competition had been judged fairly based on the scorecards, I’m confident I would have won. But after seeing how the judging was handled especially with last year’s “suitcase grower” situation I’ve lost faith in the process. It’s frustrating to see results being based on questionable criteria rather than actual performance. So, I’m officially done participating for now.

@DutchFarmer, @m0use We had multiple accusations from folks of quid-pro-quo as well last year. One thing is for certain though, is that last year the verbiage was about 'putting true skill to the test' and what not...this year we have more qualitative verbiage, like 'legend' and 'community' and 'craftsmanship'. So, let all participants expect that the judges want a repeat of 2025 winners with wacky grow setups, fun pictures posted not just on GD but directly to their other socials, and certainly no dried pictures for "harvest". Only big fat, wet on stem pictures for your final pictures...
To your point, I recall folks pointing out the environmental conditions for two of the winners last year the last few weeks of flower were in the 'oh shit im gonna mold for sure' range. I mean for weeks. It was clearly about 'community' and 'craftsmanship' last year but sold as a raw competition of skill.

@ATLien415, The contest is rigged as a casino game, the house always wins. 😂😂
Its not what you know, but more like who you know 😜

@DutchFarmer, I agree with your sentiment. To be fair, it does seem like they are trying to implement some more quantitative changes this year. I think the real test will be in how the scorecards are applied. For example, the mold conditions for a subset of the winners last year, was quickly called out by nearly all expert-level user-cultivators in the contest. If I were a judge this year, I'd be on my toes to not get called out on grow technique/basics knowledge or scoring values lol

@Hashy, This is why i don't bother. I'll post a picture or soemthign simple, but i won't put in 4 months of effort. The 2020 solo cup was the straw that broke the camel's back. They extended it but only certain people knew it was going to be extended. They also inconsistently applied the rules -- kicking one guy out, while claiming 'the rules are the rules,' and then another person was allowed to win a prize while breaking the same rule, lol.
Most contests are a joke. It's as much about who you know and who you glad-hand as much or more than growing. but, the people complaining have a choice... They can always stop participating in something that causes frustration. As long as you don't take it too seriously, no big deal. The people claiming 'i shoulda won' are a bit full of themselves, lol. This stuff, even if honestly judged, is arbitrary at best and more about eh superficial aspects (like presentation) than the important aspects (like actual growing methods).
Like the dime-sized 'frosty bud' submissions, lol... Yeah, i can take a picture of frosty a preflower, too, but a larfy bud shouldn't be allowed in such a competition.

@Plagron, Hi Plagron Team, is there a way to reset my registration I just found out the confirmation email is being sent to a non existing email address, I just corrected the personal informations now but don't have a way to amend the registration from my end.
