  2. Many apologies for the delay in this prize announcement. We had a bit of a hickup waiting for a voting panel member who hasn't logged into the forum for a while. We eventually decided to discount his vote for this month and went with 6 votes from the voting panel, usually there are 7.

    And the winners are...

     

    2nd Place

    @Onion

    This came down to a combination of votes for multiple of his/her pics that got nominated

     

    1st Place

    Well done guys. I'll be contacting you by PM shortly

    A big thank you to our competition sponsors @PASSTHEDUTCH & @THCSA

    Hmm, I am keen to join but will ultimately depend on the start date for me.

    I have a sealed pack of fem Tortoni seeds too. 😄 

    We're looking at a 420 seed drop. 20th of April.

    I've amended the sign up form to accommodate those who are able to get the seeds by other means. You guys will just need to pay in the R100-00 purse fee.

    you cant be called a prisoner as that is a derogatory term, you must be called a client of the state

    They can go F themselves. They should be called what they are, rapist, murderer, thief, low life. They should be reminded of that every day. "Prisoner" is too soft of a term, and already seems pretty PC to me. 

    Funny thing is that is many prisoners or thieves are in fact clients of the state literally, or rather "Friends of the state". So that term does hold some water 😐

    Sorry to hear about your ordeal. In this country we have to accept it right now, that very often justice will not prevail, and if we can accept that then we'll deal with the lack of it better. Otherwise we'll just go nuts.

  5. Who's keen to take part in our Indoor Growoff this year set to kick off late April/Early May?

    We're still in the planning phase but here's what we can confirm right now:

    Seeds

    @Totemic will very generously be sponsoring his fem genetics to all participants this year.  You will get 3 x Tortoni Feminised Seeds

    How to enter

    We're going to be having a buy in/entry ticket purchase for every entry this year.  The entry fee will be around R265-00 and will cover the following:

    • Your fem seeds - No charge
    • Courier Fee - R115-00
    • Handling/Packaging Fee - R50-00
    • Competition purse fee - R100-00 (explained below)

    A primary reason for an entry fee purchase is for commitment. If you've paid in the entry fee you are more likely to take part in the competition. In the past there were plenty of guys who took advantage of the free beans and did not actually take part in the growoff. We're hoping the buy in will rectify that.

    The ticket purchase will be handled through the 420SA Store.

    Competition Purse

    This year I thought it would be a good idea to have a competition purse which gets split into 1st, 2nd and 3rd. I will be handling the purse and will keep things 100% transparent. 

    We are still in the process of perfecting the growoff format and I feel that if sponsors aren't willing to jump onboard with big prizes we at least have some decent monies to grow for. Let me know your thoughts on the purse format, yay or nay?

     

    If you are interested in taking part in this year's Indoor Growoff we'd like to get an idea of how many of you are keen

  6. SNAPSHOT OF THE MONTH

    FEBRUARY 2021

    THEME - BEST LEAF SHOT

    We're changing things up this month with a theme! This month we're looking for the best shot of a cannabis leaf.

    That means you're gonna have to get creative and produce something that stands out from the rest. The focus of the image needs to be the leaf, it can be multiple leaves as well. 

    How you execute the shot is what will win you the prize. 👌

  7. NOMINEE UPDATE - REASON FOR DELAY

    Howzit guys sorry for the delay with the announcement of nominees. I recently moved houses and have been without internet connection ever since. Experiencing delay after delay with fibre installation due to the sheer amount of rain we've been having. My temporary connection was activated last night only so I'll get onto the nominees this weekend and will have those nominees announced tomorrow the latest. 

    Sorry again for the delay!

    I think it was @oldsandals, posting a series of stunning african genetics (sooooooo sexy!). Ghana, Malawi, Morocco, SA,... there is more to work with as most think. 

    I reckon every local breeder should at one point try and play around with these kinda genetics and see what comes of it. Risky though as so many are also riddled with hermie potential that'll take so long to breed out.

    You're also bound to experience a heap of backlash from the "gurus" as well
