Just a question, not a reproach. But how is it possible that some participants' diaries are already 14 weeks old, even though the contest only started three or four days ago? Next to that wish you all of the luck of the world !💪🙌

@growerschoice, There would have been a lot more participants if you had let people in. You just wanted to boost your sales; that’s really a dirty trick on your part. I won’t be planting the seeds I bought from you; I’d love to send them back. You just wanted a quick buck—you don’t care about your customers. You could have let the contest run its course; there were still four months left, and hundreds of participants would have registered. You should actually be banned for this—it’s fraud.

If id make such a contest, id have a special price for people that share their grows on social media, otherwise itd seem like people with social media presence are treated with an upper hand in this contest, especially considering that most people here, probably like over 80% live in countries where's illegal to grow, so treating people with social media accounts better than the rest that doesn't want to get caught seem like not the smartest choice, what ya say guys? Let's talk in the comments

@Cremo, guess what: i made an approach and opened an Instagram account a few days ago without any posts, just my nick name. The next day somebody out of my hometown wrote to me. Could see it from the car's numberplate which was on his profile. Even in a country where it might be legal one should think about not dealing with Insta and some other socials if you doj't want your neighbours talking about your hobby. A no go as a criteria for a contest, for sure, i agree. But of cause a nice advertisment for companies if somebody posts there and therefore okay, seen from the business standpoint. An extra price, like you suggested, would be more fair.

Podríais ampliar el plazo para finalizar los diarios? Todavía no me llegaron las semillas, si lo amplias incluso se podrá meter outdoor?

Hoping that this week will show some more competitors after newmoon🙏. At least one more (me🙃) will enter. Come on, the seeds are so cheap on their website, everybody should be able to order a pack without sponsorship

Would be a shame if I would take the time to participate to deliver the best fire shots and loose due to no following on social media 😆
