Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Plant of the Year" contest, held in January.
Contest Guidelines:
1. Members must have at least 50 posts to enter or vote in the contest.
2. Contest entries must be original photos of your own plant, taken within the last year and not previously entered in a Plant 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.
3. This contest is for a single live plant, no cuttings. Photos of multiple plants will be excluded. An exception would be if you are growing multiple plants and can't move them, then make sure your photo is focused solely on the plant you are entering and you clearly state which plant. At least one photo must show MOST of the plant. You may add one inanimate object as a reference point for size, or a closeup/macro.
4. Maximum of two photos per member. Updating photos throughout the month is prohibited.
5. Please upload all photos through our Photo Gallery before submitting them to this thread.

6. Self-nominations only. Past winners are ineligible for 3 months from date of win.
7. Editing Photos: You may resize and/or crop your photos, however adding text, images and frame borders are prohibited. Photos must be cropped properly, leaving no large empty spaces at top/bottom or left/right of the image.
8. Staff members from this or any other cannabis platform cannot participate in 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.
9. Campaigning for yourself or a friend, is considered cheating and will result in the entry being removed from the contest.
Campaigning includes:
Contests Are Legitimate: Voting may be anonymous, but we have endless ways of catching cheaters and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be exposed in the public thread.
In the past, we removed offending entries without announcement, to minimize embarrassment for the member. The cheaters would then claim innocence, which turned everyone against us. This led to members questioning our motives and causing extra work for our team. To avoid confusion moving forward, we now alert the community of these things when they happen.
If anyone has any questions or problems with any of the entries in a contest, please speak up in the contest thread before the end of the contest, or forever hold your peace. Once a winner is announced, that will be the end of discussion. There will be no take backs, unless we made a clerical error.
By posting a submission into this contest, it is assumed that you have read and agree to abide by each of the aforementioned guidelines. Consider your submission your virtual signature.
