<span class="link_user">@yan420</span>, she is developing a faint smell, the larry is like a different level so far though... will see

<span class="link_user">@ATLien415</span>, Sounds good bro, it&#039;s a shame she doesn&#039;t smell like you want her to, maybe she develops her smell later :crossed_fingers::four_leaf_clover:

<span class="link_user">@Elufah</span> prize arrived today, much love...can&#039;t wait to unbox soon

<span class="link_user">@FatnastyzBudz</span>, Acknowledging someone in their moment to the untrained eye may be perceived as &#039;encouraging toxic behavior.&#039; In general, beginning the introduction of contradictory information to a complainant with the acceptance of something from the complainant is a trivial debate tactic (to the extent this is how you would teach a freshman redshirt on any academic debate team, on how to debate with no training), basic psychology, and is a show of compassion to your fellow humans. No shame thrown this way. Just views and likes. Thank you. And not to be pedantic, but I did not &#039;voice my complaints&#039;...I simply read and reacted to the community&#039;s response to the competition...which is what the contest sponsors have done. I really dislike that we are at the place of me having to say that...when you COULD just refer back to the page yourself. Perhaps when your venture takes off and you are sponsoring such a competition, then you&#039;ll be in a better place to say what is appropriate to discuss relating to said hypothetical competition and if said would-be complaint is &#039;valid&#039; for you...until then, I think the fact that every single bit of &#039;toxic complaints&#039; were addressed speaks for itself (actions vs words argument) regarding the validity of each &#039;toxic complaint,&#039; individually. Hago lo que tiene razon y venga lo que venga:alien::raised_hands:

<span class="link_user">@Plagron</span>, Yall really took the feedback from last year and listened, which feels kinda trippy to see in real time. Kudos to yall. So, explicitly, for 2026 this is a competition based on scoring with the above rubric and relies on GrowDiaries content? In other words, given two identical diaries...is there a preference for one that is daily <span class="link_user">@ing</span> you on Instagram or whatever?

<span class="link_user">@FatnastyzBudz</span>, I appreciate your opinion, and understand your sentiment. Not a trap, genuinely confused why I got @&#039;d and I guarantee that is a way to get my reply. Just ask 010101. If you read this thread from beginning to finish, then, you will observe me coming in an attempt to temper the extreme negative reaction our companion had. Some things that stay front of mind for me when discussing this are that (i) firstly, the competition runners have clearly put in a substantial amount of effort to combat the exact same issues the original poster had with this competition series and (ii) secondly, there is objectively such a thing as great bud. True, the exact verbiage &#039;sexy&#039; was used as a placeholder in the summary of the competition last year. If you recall the exact competition description, that &#039;sexy&#039; was holding the place of a lot of other words...including but not limited to something along the lines of &#039;the ultimate test of SKILL.&#039; So, taking it back to their actual verbiage and not a single placeholder meant to summarize paragraphs, where do you think (a) environmental conditions which mandate mold in X days or (b) allegations with DMs of quid-pro-quo with a non-competition-runner judge fit into the &#039;the ultimate test of SKILL?&#039; This is where the binary nature of this topic comes into play...even if you just don&#039;t like grown men discussing nuances or particulars, whatever your flavor, all you&#039;re doing in short is condoning both (a) and (b). Again, I&#039;ll remind you that even the very people doing the actual running of the competition thought it needed to do things like a rubric for the judges this year...but you draw the line here...why?

<span class="link_user">@FatnastyzBudz</span>, I am a little curious as to why you say my comments triggered you. Would love to allow you a safe space to let your emotions out. I had a great time in the EGC25, use my own grow as an example of how to mark scores negatively, have a &#039;we will send any seed you want because of how your diary looked&#039; relationship with them, and have never said anything negative about the competition other than noting the allegations of quid-pro-quo with one judge and the disconnect between their stated scoring and their implemented scoring system last year. The only real question is why are you not looking at last year&#039;s competition objectively? The runners of the competition specifically call out how they have fixed these things. So to them, and to many folks on here, it was important. Why are you pushing back on scorecards and transparent judging? Anyway, best of luck this year. Any competition with free nutrients is a win.

<span class="link_user">@yan420</span>, some of the best flavors around IMO... this was one of their biggest unicorns and the reason for my trekking to the tissue bank. the larry drop from DOJA was just collateral winning, which btw has a highly distinctive sweet dank to it already while the grape gas has very little scent

<span class="link_user">@yan420</span>, heryyo, thanks...the spanish moon specifically has thrown some nanners which is annoying with how full the canopy has been but im allowing it for now. picture 3 is some craft batch crumble made at low pressure, specifically it was my partner whilst defoliating
