Welcome to 420 Magazine's Nug of the Month Contest!

Please submit a photo of your best nug. (There is a separate contest thread for plants)

The nug must be your own, either purchased or grown. Optionally, we'd love to hear about the strain, taste, aroma, potency, effect, weight or any other frosty details that you're willing to share.

The contest will be open for submissions from the 1st until the 14th at midnight PST. At one minute past midnight on the 15th, we will begin voting for a winner.

All winners receive "Nug of the Month" title and the following Prize Package:

420 Magazine: 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Magazine Magnet, 420 Magazine Stickers
GeoPot: Winner's choice of 5 x 3 Gallon Pots, 3 x 5 Gallon Pots OR 1 x 15 Gallon Pot
Geoflora Nutrients: Geoflora Veg & Geoflora Bloom
Foods Alive: Organic Toasted Hemp Seeds
Sierra Natural Science: SNS-217 Spider Mite Control - 1 Quart Mix Pouch
Mile High Cleaner: Deluxe Cleaning Kit

Shipping fees may apply to some packages shipped outside of the U.S.
You are responsible for any additional fees applied by customs.

Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Nug of the Year" contest in January.

Contest Guidelines:

1. The contest is open to members with 50 or more posts. Members must also have at least 50 posts to be entitled to vote.

2. Contest entries must be original photos of your own nug(s), rather recent and not previously entered in a Nug of the Month contest. The same photo cannot be entered into more than one contest in the same month. Winning entries cannot be entered into any future contests. The nug photo may include several nugs or a cola. This nug may be grown by yourself or purchased at a legal medical dispensary.

3. Entries must include ONLY photos of the nug. But you may add one photo as a reference point for size or a closeup/macro

4. Maximum of two photos per member. Both photos must be of the same strain or batch of nugs. Updating photos throughout the month is not allowed.

5. Remember to upload your photo through our Photo Gallery before posting it on this thread: Photo Gallery Guide - How to Resize, Upload & Post Photos

6. Nugs must be dry and ready to smoke or vaporize. Any nug that appears to be too moist to smoke or vaporize will be deemed an invalid entry. No "wet" nugs please

7. Self-nominations only. Past winners are ineligible for 3 months from date of win.

8. Competition is open to the first 25 entries.

9. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the entry in any thread outside the contest, a signature link to the entry and campaigning via PMs - will result in the entry being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests. General encouragement to vote in all the contests is fine, as long as it's not excessive or crossing the line into campaigning. Any post which explicitly or implicitly encourages members to vote for a specific entry is not.

10. Editing Photos: You may resize and/or crop your photos, however adding text, images and effects are prohibited. This makes it a fair contest for all, as not everyone can afford photo editing programs and/or know how to use the them. Photos must be cropped properly, leaving no large empty spaces at top/bottom or left/right of the image.

11. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community and/or 420 Magazine sponsors are not permitted to enter our contests. It's okay for staff to post photos in the contest for fun, however to retain the credibility of the contest, their photos will not be added to the voting polls.

By posting a submission into this contest, it is assumed that you have read and agree to abide by each of the aforementioned rules. Consider your submission your "virtual signature".

Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

:goodluck: Good Luck Everyone! :goodluck:
 
I’ll pass this month on seeing that a second time. 😂

Its an absolute beaut.

C’mon - someone to beat that high bar set!

Nick
Thanks nick! I know you got something nice over there 🧐 the few autos I done definitely brung me out my comfort zone with strains! And it definitely tastes as good as it looks👌🏽
 
Ok, I’ll be the third one to jump in this month. This is my Platinum Mimosa Cookies XXL auto from Growers Choice. It is perhaps the strongest auto in terms of THC I’ve grown yet. I don’t have a test kit, but I estimate it to be high 20s - maybe 26-28%. It gets me stupid high, which isn’t easy with our tolerance levels. Lol. I choose this jar many times over several of my photoperiod jars.

Thanks @024backwards! Heads up - I often have to go to Growers Choice direct website to get the XXLs. Then they have a US and an EU. The EU site is where their best XXL selection lives.
 
wow is it really that black? I've never seen anything like that
My mates say it's black but it's definitely more a really dark purple lol and it's the first time I've ever seen it in person lol

Good luck everyone. Great entries so far. 👍

@Renee Roberts regarding editing, is background cutting allowed?

Here's the guideline about it:
Editing Photos: You may resize and/or crop your photos, however adding text, images and effects are prohibited.

Photos must be cropped properly, leaving no large empty spaces at top/bottom or left/right of the image.

I believe what you are asking is considered an effect and is not allowed. :sorry:

Not sure if this means my post won't be included in the comp as I have blacked out the background but as we're allowed two photos I made sure I entered one that meets the regs.

If my the picture in my post is a issue to the comp or anyone please let me know so I can remove it.

Thanks 😁 ✌🏽
