420 Magazine’s Grow Journal of the Month October 2023 winner is our valued member, Carmen Ray, with her journal entitled, “Another Tabletop Crop: Carmen’s Spring Grow With Vipar Spectra XS 1500 Pro“. This excellent journal features Carmen growing two Red Russian strains under lights from a 420 sponsor, ViparSpectra, in organic soil.
The Grow Journal of the Month is nominated by, and voted for, 420 Magazine members. Carmen Ray’s anonymous nomination nicely summarises the appeal of her work:
“She is an expert photographer with an artistic eye to all her beautiful shots. Her attention to detail in her spreadsheet screenshots, I applaud. Since she copied it from me, I can’t help but applaud. But, even before she started including charts with her posts, she always points out specifically what she is doing and asking for help when needed.
“She uses sponsors‘ products when able. Her current journal showcases the ViparSpectra XS 1500 so that’s a good sponsor for her to showcase.”
We ask that everyone please consider the following factors when suggesting nominees and voting on this contest:
- Frequent Activity & Updates – Journals should be regularly maintained and updated
- Attention To Detail – Journals should discuss growing methods and techniques in detail
- Quality Photography – Pictures should be clear and of good quality
