Congrats to the winner on his first grow..... and second trophy????????? @growdiaries, i dont get it. Ya add a week to the selection process, set the rules as first growing experience, and then award first place to a dude that placed in a diary of the month just abfee mkntbs ago. 3 spots for the winners, why not make all the spots awarded as per the rules????? Not to discount the champs diary, but this should be a feeder competion into the big show. This dude won the big show and then an award for his very first growing experience ever..... So ya, take half a month to decide, but show us you are actually looking. This contest, as Bulbi will tell ya, should encourage GD users to stick around. This result would do the opposite, no? Ya ya, i know, someone bitches about the winners every month. Its just my turn

@LeafTucker, hmm. I have some of those in my drawer, looking at em now. I just sent the strawberry pie to a GD user for winnjng a guessing game. He doesnt know that yet tho, package arrives monday, Donald. If in North America, if you dont place in the contest, hmu.

@BudXs, thanks man. We will see Monday around 630pm my time. I put it out there, now it's just a matter if they choose it. I am just hoping if I lose, I don't miss the bogo on Fastbuds seeds. Just got my Think Like Buddha in the dirt. I will create her diary at about 5 days. I will put the condensed version of the guide in the first week. The GSC seed was a bust. Hoping to get the Fastbuds seeds for my next crop after these 2. The wedding Cake, Gorilla Cookies, and Strawberry Pie all look great.

@HighRoller909, as long as they get a chance to join in a competition (the newbies i mean!) because i can tell you from experience if you can win this one competition it's such an amazing feeling as a first time grower , really encouraging and most of all rewarding 🚀 as you may know this comp is my personal fave , great cannamedia being produced ! 🚀
CRiSPrGrow
CRiSPrGrow
@HighRoller909, but if you look at the winners you'll find the GD team does a great job selecting , just my opinion... of course experienced growers join in unduly, but that happens in every competition, just like the bikini one or others... and btw "first grow" is not a necessary thing to have in your title as you can see from the winning diaries 😉.... this one is still my favorite contest

Cogratz Growers, my first month here at this site. I see that a high number of photos wins even if they are the same photo a dozen ways or taken each day and commented with the day number. I’d rather skip diaries like these when I’m browsing trying to learn things. Each to their own on what they like I guess. The winners do have very nice harvest pages. I still get to learn something from these and would probably never had viewed them otherwise. How can a grower win a prize against everyone in June then even be allowed to enter and compete with newbies much less win in August?

@ganjaq, i read through, good diary! Last minute tip to Newbies to help your chances at a trophy: 1.Smiley faces across the board: at least 4 pics per week, comments on every week 2. Caption your photos 3. Complete your weekly changes (heoght, temps, etc) 4. Be different 5. Be consistent 6. Lots of harvest pics, as hi res as possible 7. Keep fit, have fun 8. Engage the community

Why are the top 10 highlighted in gold/yellow? Are these current rankings? I see someone in the top 10 has 8 diaries already...I thought this was for newbies? I'm looking to try next month. Thanks

@BermudaCower, the order is random until the winners are announced and even then the remaining diary rankings are also random hope that makes sense ?

Where’s the “smiley face” I don’t see a smiley face on any of the diaries in the list? What’s that even mean, it looks like the only thing that matters is g/w/p

Weedy Gonzales has newbie of the month material up there, lot of others need to be in the open competition. Any way I like this site, hopefully they work to improve.
