I'm doing this because, perhaps unbeknownst to you, you were also on the leaderboard as having answered at least one question that another grower found helpful to their grows. I am also offering this to you because all of you are either Newbies or Apprentices - not Masters or Grand Masters or Gurus. I will not be giving out all the seeds as I WILL want to keep at least a few for myself but if you are interested in trying one of the strains the sponsor has indicated above, please DM me. First come, first served. And thank you for helping other growers!

This has gone off the rails. Fake accounts masquerading as real accounts replete with the real account's profile pic but with just a TWEAK of their name, posting crap that's meant to look like the real account's answer, nasty comments being made about other growers inside of questions when all that's needed is to answer the question and let the grower decide what makes the most sense to THEM ... I, for one, would love to see @GrowDiaries shut this competition down NOW and not award any prizes to anyone - and never run this contest again. Even the growers who come to ask questions are noticing the toxic atmosphere... and this doesn't help ANYONE. @m0use @dutchdoobie @ernest_twwg @hashy @gottagrowsometime @Ezzjaybruh @GanjaReaper

@Hashy, I do love all the fucked up shit that happens in GOTM. it just got its official seal of "WTF" with this kerfuffle. Wondering where Dutch's troll is on the questions. I think they have one in their diaries and that's also annoying.

If one of the top 3 made a mistake by awnser a fake question, the number 4 with only 10 points can get the 3th place. This is why i don't compete anymore, one must do alot of effort and doesn't get/hold any protection/rights from GD LOL. For now, congrats and goodluck @GrowingGrannie , @DutchDoobie and @M0use.

@GrowingGrannie, I have send many emails,reports and chats with all evidence. They never replied lol. It's not that i don't want to help out growers anymore, it just cost alot of time which i don't have at the moment and yes, getting easily fukt over also don't motivate me. Might try in the future, but that chance is low.
GrowingGrannie
GrowingGranniecommented2 years ago
@GanjaReaper, I can't answer that... I don't know what happened nor do I know if you pleaded your case to GD with a list of links to all qualifying questions you believe you had won... I'm sorry that experience has made you decide you don't want to help growers any more... all I'm saying is that the contest isn't the ONLY reason to answer questions.
GanjaReaper
GanjaReapercommented2 years ago
@GrowingGrannie, well somehow I got kicked from 3th place in May... So I don't think GD does proper investigation. Some might deleted their questions to troll me, but i counted it afterwards and still had more points then the number 4...

@CRiSPrGrow, I have fun just trying to help people and offer my $0.02 and if I place, it's a bonus. My answers don't get selected very often, but it's worth it to help younger and beginner growers and bring a different perspective to the table. It will also help build the community of the site, so win-win!

@GrowingGrannie, its nice to let people know whats up, I've updated it a bit, feel free to reword it in any way that suits you. Ideally there should be a pop up when posting new questions that says all that garbage anyway for the person so they know. Should not be the responsibility of the other users on the site to tell new comers how things work or in most cases don't work lol.
Hashy
Hashycommented2 years ago
Come on people let's keep the trash talk to a minimum. Growers asking the questions want advice/reassurance and its up to the more experienced growers to lend a hand and help out. I'm not saying I'm the best grower in the world or have mastered growing. I fuck up regularly, but when I fuck up a grow I have learnt something. A lot of these questions are from people on their 1st grows and want to at least reach harvest. Remember we are looking at pictures of plants and most times the pictures aren't always great quality, one grower may see one problem another grower may see a different problem, both growers may be completely wrong. It's all a matter of opinion. @growdiaries do actually ban people from the site, they don't seem to have a list of rules for this but they do remove accounts from people being wankers. Perhaps the question tab on diaries should say something to the grower about waiting for multiple responses as there is a competition running for growers answering these question. This sites stats are a bit false, the status side of things can be false, eg I am a master grower because I hit whatever it is for likes during my time on here, I wouldn't class myself as a master grower, some people hit master level in days with no diaries by spamming. That shows how false the status thing is. Gram per watt is also false, if you have 1 light in the tent/room and 4 plants under it then it's classing each plant recieving all the light, it doesn't account for 4 plants sharing 1 light. I was growing for 16 years, then I hit 5'8 and stopped 🤣

Sad day when a person in 2nd is causing more drama in the questions after the contest is closed. growdiaries.com/grow-questions/49936-bud-rot https://ibb.co/vBzBDMX Why are you continuing to be a prick @DutchDoobie? You're sending @GrowingGrannie DM's asking for help on the very subject you where so critical of her advice on. I can recall your rude comments on her grows that have since been deleted, saying shit along the lines of "all you grow is budrot." It bad enough she has to hide her diaries to prevent you from harassing her on them. Go ahead and be a troll, they will kick you out of the contest if they deem it necessary. I've have just heard your also harassing others in the DM's... grow up, what your dysfunction? @GrowDiaries please fix this child, they are not a supportive member of the community.

@DutchDoobie, I did not troll you, I simply called out your BULLSH!T LIES!!
GrowingGrannie
GrowingGranniecommented2 years ago
@m0use, your last was epic - EPIC! And spot on... I can personally attest to all of it.
m0use
m0usecommented2 years ago
@DutchDoobie, did you miss the entire 1st post? You did not say yes or no, I've already explained that so might want to reread it. The reason I am calling you out on your bull shit is because you are a prick, plane and simple. Why are you still aggravating users when the whole thing is done and over with. To your suggested advice though, No one in their right mind would set up a fan outdoors to blow on their plants when the wind is free and plentiful. A fan would not rid the air of it's humidity.... You are the one who started off by commenting something on a diary that was hostile, then you remove it because you can't take a dose of you own behaviour reflected back at you?? How does that make sense.. If you put shit out, and get shit back, you're the soul proprietor of your own problem bud. Yet you blame others and say your the victim... lol ok then. Not once did I go into anyone's grows and give advice that was unwarranted or spam a question accusing someone of being in menopause or harass other by spamming their diaries and inboxes. Shockingly you did all of that, and multiple times. Yet you're still not the problem in your mind are you? Seems to be a common theme here, wonder if it plays out in real life like that. To add to all this, you enabled the trolls and supported them because you were trying to "make friends" to find out who they where, your just a massive joke. Thanks for the little heart in my dm's after you posted this message, just confirms what I already know: You're a waste of time and a dumb troll with 15 yrs of growing experience, Good Riddance

It would probably never happen but I ask the question anyway... what would happen if there was a tie for 3rd place? Would there then be FOUR winners and the two tied for third BOTH get a medal and the prizes from the sponsor? That would seem reasonable - but I'm just wondering if anyone actually knows... @Hashy @m0use @Ezzjaybruh

@GrowingGrannie, they do not. their communication is none existent and something are left in the air. this was in part of my interview, but they scraped that answer.

@GrowingGrannie, it’d probably be up to the sponsor. There’s so little actually hashed out as far as details with these contests. GD just does as little as possible and MIGHT look into an issue if it arises at some point. But probably not

If I win, I will be sharing some of the seeds with others, If anyone is in Canada hit me up I will post you some. Won't be for months though as these things take time to finalize and ship out but I'm starting the process now. Also no idea what the packsize is. 25 seeds by 7 strains is not an even number. nor is 23 seeds by 6 strains if they listed one as a three pack. Maybe its the following 5 x3 packs 2 x5 packs or a bunch of 1's and some more 5packs IDK. Does not make sense when they say one is in the 3pac and rest are not. unclear.. @SeedsMafia Can you shed some light on how many seeds per strain are getting shipped out?? & If they are locked into the strain options you have put into the infographic. Thank you :D
