My interpretation of the 3 rules -
Indoor grows only. - does not include starting inside and moving out side, or out moving in. Greenhouse / skylites / all good as long as it's completely indoors.
Runderalis strains only (any strain mix accepted that is an autoflower strain) - Basicly pick any seed you want. If it's good / male / female / weak / super, don't matter. Like a poker game or a crap shoot some luck required or really good seed reading maybe. Pretty simple,
any auto (personal breed or whatever) as long as there is Ruderalis in the gene pool.
One plant per person. - Pretty simple. I did't think it meant to only declare 1 different entry at a time as you go along picking the best of a 100 seedlings in the end.
What I hoped to get out of this?
Hoped I'd see what folks do to overcome obsticles in the grow. Didn't expect a simple give it up and do / pick another.
Without a million dollar first prize I hoped rule bending, cheating, lying, and one-upsmanship wouldn't be here.
LEARNING is what I really wanted to get from this. Results from different lighting, different grow methods using nutes / humidity control / etc. AND how to overcome a life threatning situation. (Like my lighting thing).
Hoping this would be a fun, entertaining, informative, mature, & friendly semi-competition. (Not sure if a green pea sprewing electrical virgina was in the mix though.
)
So far - on the most part I'm having fun and glad I entered. But I'll play by my interpretation and stick with the 1 plant, auto, indoor rules. Even if I'm handi-capped by doing so,,, To me, as long as I have a good time and learn something, it's good!
KuLong - Kudos sport! Thanks for doing this.
I especially like how you failed to define how the winner willbe determined. I think that's really kool.
Now, on with the show.
