Fast Buds Creative Video Contest

@SmokingTiki, @m0use I would avoid it where possible. We will be using these videos on TikTok and on Instagram, while Instagram tends to allow very young (like days old) sprouts, TikTok is much more strict. I believe we will also run another contest soon where everything is OK to show, that we will use for our YouTube channel, a much less strict platform (for the most part). But for this contest, we want as much subtlety as possible.

@SmokingTiki, I want to say none of it given their official stance on cannabis. and given the fact they call it marijuana and not cannabis seems weird to me. I don't think it can be identified as weed and if it can, via person or AI it is likely against their TOS. I had my one weed pic removed from an old profile but it did not give me a warning or notifaction, just said it offended the comnity and was gone. Instagram's policy on marijuana sales Instagram doesn’t allow people or organizations to use the platform to advertise or sell marijuana, regardless of the seller’s state or country. Our policy prohibits any marijuana seller, including dispensaries, from promoting their business by providing contact information like phone numbers, email addresses, street addresses, or by using the “contact us” tab in Instagram Business Accounts. However, we do allow people to include a website link in their bio information.

@Brujo_grdn, Looking forward to your entries!!

Maybe try changing the format of the video? strange though, have you asked @growdiaries?

@420Germany, I see a lot of things in the negative, so I get yea.. Some will says I'm an asshole on here cuz of it. I have been critical of FastBuds before and Grow Diaries because of how they run things here, or don't run them... or how they run somethings into the ground lol. Can only hope, not my company or contest and they are working within a limited scope of tools. Add on an iphone to all the first place prices and maybe we will get some better results. Also remember the win a ps5 for every month of the year and then it just disappeared. wonder what happened to that.

@m0use, jeah u prolly right, i just dont want it do drift in the bad directions as im seeing it kinda negativly I guess.

@420Germany, Its a smart way to get some marking materials made by the community. but sometimes and most of the time they are garbage as most of us are not in digital video fields. However the ideas behind them they can replicate and use for their own in a way that suits their needs. But I don't think it matters as I feel Instagram will just amend their TOS and add in new clauses like xyz will also get your account banned. showing roots only, no leaves or other things that identify it as weed with out saying its weed is just a level of censorship that will get worse in time. But to you point when real content creators / influencers do stuff with a brand in mind they normally get paid for it, but they also have a audience of around 500k+, and the price point is based off of retail sales vlaues not cost of the product as that would be under a dollar give or take.
