Please keep in mind that only the following strains/products are eligible for participation:

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

@GrowDiaries, It would be good to have an announcement in the grow diary that this plant is participating in a contest, and which one it is. Perhaps it could be placed between the entries for pot size, lamp, strain, and nutrients.

👉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.

@Antifame, I wish, but we can't really, have to stick to the rules: everyone has to complete it within the same amount of time. Thank you for participating though!

@Flavors, it looks like it isn't indeed! Did you try to enter in the competition here when it was still online? Did it work? Anyway, not to rain on your parade but you missed the deadline anyway, see your plants are only starting to flower now... Thanks for being apart of it anyway though! You grew huge trees!

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.

@FatnastyzBudz, Dude the competition was rigged last year and everyone knows it.. I agree nobody should be mad at colleague growers but that's it. I can definitely understand the frustration..

Why people use green sensation on first weeks, is there some reason? Plagron own website "Use this solution each time the plants are irrigated from the fourth week of the flowering phase."

@Patricia_Zamnesia @GrowDiaries @Plagron Please fix the content so its same as last year, allowing entries to be made from the start of the diary rather than only at harvest. Also, restrict entries so that only Zamnesia Sticky Broccoli seeds are permitted. Thanks 👊

BUDbidi commented5mo ago
@pHilosophy420, well if u have a grow with not only contest seeds, shall we do an extra diary for the sticky or is it enough to show them all and say which is which + harvest pics from sticky?

pHilosophy420 commented5mo ago
@Budbidi, I think that to improve chances of winning, I’ve created a separate diary just for this content, so everything is clear and all the photos of the plant can be seen properly (I’m not sure how important this is, but it makes sense to keep it separate) 👊
I’ll be growing two plants, but using different methods, so I’ll have two diaries to keep everything nice and clear 😀

@Ninjabuds , @Budbidi Update: I’ve messaged Plagron, and they told me the issue will be fixed this week 🙏😀
See message from Plagron - "Hey there, thanks for your message man - 3h ago
we were very aware that the contest wasn't set up correctly and were talking to Grow Diaries to get everything arranged properly. It seems like it's been taken care of now, and last issues should be resolved this week. Excuse the rocky start, and thank you for your patience"

@Plagron, it's all aribitrary anyway - it's a beauty/popularity contest, Just be consistent. If you are consistent, you can ignore the bitching, lol. My comment was more of a generalized dstatement. I don't even remember specifically what the problem was last time.
As far as assessing it all .. maybe you can make the job a bit easier by the judges by doing some common sense filtering of entries. Again, consistency is key and probably want to be on the forgiving side so the judges get a healthy sample to select from. You could do a running list of 'top' entries and if you keep it up incrementally, it's not a lot of work in any 1 sitting. Every week or 2 update your 'top' list... (may need to fiddle with exact procedure, but over time it'd work well). It'd help if you can filter by new entries on your end... common sense function of anythinkg with a dB backend, but may not exist 'here', lol.
most of my criticism above is directed at the peanut gallery. the 'frosty bud' comment was about the uktah contest. probably too strict with the 'shouldn't be allowed in' but defnitely shouldn't win and would be a good example of common sense filtering.
If it's too much work for the judges to do properly, lessen the load. Can always give them an option to peruse all of the participants, if they so choose, but a pared down list would probably be preferred.
Make some standards... maybe don't publicize it until you really hammer out the best way to filter or assess.. see how it goes 'quietly' under the table, then when you've tweaked the standards to your liking publish it with any contests info in future.

@Plagron, Hi I'm unable to join this year as I don't think I have the space, but have seen your comments about judging the contest. If its judged on finished harvested buds then may I suggest the growers pick the three best buds from the plant and take pictures of these buds, taking about 3 pictures of each bud from different sides of the bud. That way the judges should have 9 pictures of buds per diary to choose from. I feel sorry for the judges as the quality of work people are putting in is getting really competitive.
