@West Hippie - 420’s ViparSpectra P4000 Sponsor Grow Purple Punch DWC
I wanted to reach out to nominate West Hippie for this month's title of Grow Journal of the Month.

Not only does he do an amazing job with his ponic work and takes miraculous care of his plants, his updates every day are flawless.

He has a wonderful rapport with many members, as you already know, and his knowledge exchanges with them are so fluid and thorough.

He has a sense of humor and ease of communicating that makes someone new feel comfortable. In addition, he helps many a new members, including myself find both direction and support.

Despite the onslaught of things he has on the table, he finds time to spend on so many other's grows, lending whatever help they made need at any given time.

Thanks for allowing me to nominate who I feel embodies the totality of the Grow Journal of the Month mentality and leadership.

@Modest Grower - 420 Magazine's Official Girl Scout Cookies Comparative Grow by Modest Grower
I think Modest Grower's journal deserves another shot at journal of the month. He did a great job with the comparative grow and was constantly providing us lots of high quality photo updates. He had good attention to detail, while highlighting his sponsors and replying to questions and comments with positive energy and pride. Those colas were monsters and those calyx's were extreme! It was a fun journal to follow from such an amazing cultivator.

@Carcass - Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019
From small beginnings and a tiny budget, Carcass' journal has flowered over the years into a fascinating and instructive perpetual. Indoors and outdoors, Carcass shows how you can start with little and end up with some amazing looking buds. Along the way, Carcass has to deal with all the usual problems and has gathered a tribe of engaged subscribers. Size isn't everything, but Carcass' big journal is definitely worth a look.

:goodluck: Good Luck Everyone! :goodluck:​
 
It's time to think of your fellow growers and spread the love.

You have two weeks to put someone in for this recognition.

Tok..
 
Time is running out on this one also.

I know you follow different growers, for information, strains their growing, or maybe because you like their personality.

It doesn't matter submit a fellow grower.

Stay safe, and grow well my friends,

@Krissi1982... Your AK47 brings back Memory Lane, first Med Card in 04' and grabbed a few clones that year and one of them was AK47. All the other clones were decent, but it was the first time I saw a plant under 3 feet tall and Colas like you wouldn't believe. Half pounder and I had to reweigh it multiple times in disbelief. That sweet woodsy sort of taste and she had Blonde hairs throughout the entire grow. Blonde to dirty blonde at the end and Cure. Gorgeous and Unforgettable.

I am so glad that it revives those for you!!! Makes my soul happy!! My first grow AK grow was 32 inches, she is getting close at 27 right now and she needs to cola up still...she may give her harvested sister a run for her money...it is such a woodsy smell and taste!! Skunky and Earthy is how I describe it. You know I saw AK-48 seeds! Have you ever tried that out? It's a basic ruderalis mix but I would think a cousin to AK-47 would be worth trying. She is an easy and rewarding plentiful grow. She gave you a good haul that clone, I'd say!!!!
 
Congratulations to
