Please give a round of applause to The Great 16 of the Month!

A lot of user are wondering what the criteria is for picking winners of DOM and NOM. Here is a little guide to help you win:

• Details. You Diary should be as complete as possible. Take pictures of each and every part of your plant that, in your opinion, is a significant indicator of a state of your grow. Fill in each week, describe your techniques, add descriptions to the images you upload, outline your setup, add a comment to each week, participate in discussions in the commetns section, include information about feeding and watering, log in wet and dry harvest weights, mention grow lights, etc.
• Quality images. Make sure to use a good camera, take as many pictures as you can. Turn off grow lights to take pictures (!) Add videos. 
• Learning aspect. Teach us something! How do you mix your soil? Maybe you have a video about topping your plant? Can you share your DIY ScrOG setup? Please share this information with us, it will be your ticket to win the contests.
• Story. Spice it up, make it an interesting read. What challenges do you overcome while growing? Anything from mold to hurricanes in your area works! Perhaps, you grow in a special location? Is there a story about obtaining your seeds/clones?  We also saw some interesting things like song of the week, DIY of the week, grow tip of the week... Make it special and it's a win!
• Plant. Do your best, as always. However, please note, the quality of your plant/skills is not as important as richness of your Diary. Diary of the Month is about keeping a detailed journal, not growers skills.

Hope this makes sense! We are looking forward to hear your feedback in the comments section below!

Peace,

GD Team
