Seedstockers Bonsai Grow Off 2023

Wassup GR420. Welcome to the Seedstockers Bonsai Grow Off thread :barmy:

Please use this topic for the actual grow out updates. The strain chosen by those who entered is Northern Lights. I've sent/am sending these seeds to the members who are entered. Some have chosen autoflower, others photoperiod.

Members entered

@Grumpy Toad - Photoperiod
@Greenfingers - Photoperiod
@GMO - photoperiod
@biosynthetic - Photoperiod
@Herbalist - photoperiod
@Momma bear - Photoperiod
@Wizard - Autoflower
@Sage - Photoperiod
@anova.330 - Photoperiod
@Keeno - Photoperiod

Prize

5000 GR Points to the winner.

100 GR Points for each weekly update.

1000 GR Point bonus for anyone who updates every week.


Rules

Pot Size should not exceed 2 liters. This is larger than many bonsai grows but the length of time some of these plants will be alive will mean 2 liters will help with the heavy training needed.
This competition will run for 6 months, ending in June. The growers using autoflower seeds will obviously finish sooner.
To qualify for the end vote a member will need at least 10 weekly updates in this topic.
This is a bonsai grow off, so we are not looking for the biggest plant, we are after a true bonsai style plant.

Rules may be tweaked as we go.

Thank you Seedsstockers for looking after another competition.

Good luck all :barmy:

We can get swept away by our thoughts,,or learn to step back and see them with clarity.
Easy to forget its a choice

UK seeds should start arriving the next couple of days. We will have to push the official start date back a bit as Royal Mail are still not accepting international parcels due that cyber attack. I'm trying for a work around atm. The issue is the next closest courier is 5x the price for that size parcel and there ate a lot of them. I will try ship the lot over thee with fedex and have them distributed on that side of the pond if this isn't sorted by the end of the week.

The official start date may go back as mentioned but anyone who gets seeds is welcome to start as soon as they arrive.
