👉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.
👉Additional Information👈

@Plagron, Yall really took the feedback from last year and listened, which feels kinda trippy to see in real time. Kudos to yall.
So, explicitly, for 2026 this is a competition based on scoring with the above rubric and relies on GrowDiaries content? In other words, given two identical diaries...is there a preference for one that is daily @ing you on Instagram or whatever?

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.

@ATLien415, appreciate the safe space! Although I feel like it might be disguised as a trap. 😂
My triggers are -grown adults complaining about 1 year old competition results.
Sexy bud, its subjective. I have no need to question the results. A group of companies put this together for the community. I'm very grateful that they care enough to!

@Fatnastyz, I appreciate your opinion, and understand your sentiment. Not a trap, genuinely confused why I got @'d and I guarantee that is a way to get my reply. Just ask 010101. If you read this thread from beginning to finish, then, you will observe me coming in an attempt to temper the extreme negative reaction our companion had. Some things that stay front of mind for me when discussing this are that (i) firstly, the competition runners have clearly put in a substantial amount of effort to combat the exact same issues the original poster had with this competition series and (ii) secondly, there is objectively such a thing as great bud. True, the exact verbiage 'sexy' was used as a placeholder in the summary of the competition last year. If you recall the exact competition description, that 'sexy' was holding the place of a lot of other words...including but not limited to something along the lines of 'the ultimate test of SKILL.'
So, taking it back to their actual verbiage and not a single placeholder meant to summarize paragraphs, where do you think (a) environmental conditions which mandate mold in X days or (b) allegations with DMs of quid-pro-quo with a non-competition-runner judge fit into the 'the ultimate test of SKILL?' This is where the binary nature of this topic comes into play...even if you just don't like grown men discussing nuances or particulars, whatever your flavor, all you're doing in short is condoning both (a) and (b). Again, I'll remind you that even the very people doing the actual running of the competition thought it needed to do things like a rubric for the judges this year...but you draw the line here...why?

@ATLien415, Yeah, sorry for the trap, that was a joke. I need to learn not to joke, in non-joke moments.
You were encouraging his toxic behavior, thats why I included you in the shame.
All in all, you said it yourself. You spoke to the organizers, you voiced your complaint. So leave it there, where it was addressed.

😁Best of luck to you this year! Gonna have Broccoli out the WAZZOO!😽😁

@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.
