<span class="link_user">@Plagron</span>, Hi I'm unable to join this year as I don't think I have the space, but have seen your comments about judging the contest. If its judged on finished harvested buds then may I suggest the growers pick the three best buds from the plant and take pictures of these buds, taking about 3 pictures of each bud from different sides of the bud. That way the judges should have 9 pictures of buds per diary to choose from. I feel sorry for the judges as the quality of work people are putting in is getting really competitive.
<span class="link_user">@00110001001001111O</span>, Do you have any ideas on how we can make it as fair as possible?
It is impossible for 10 judges to assess all the buds in real life, as the participants come from a large number of different countries.
We can only judge based on the diary and accompanying photos. Unless you have some great ideas that we haven't thought of yet.
