Master Cultivator

I want to start a thread for people on here to vote monthly for people that have posted the most intricate, intreging and wonderful grows.
I think this would be nice so I wanted to post this here to see if others agree with me. If so I'll update and put things together to get it started but it depends on what Mostly and karode think.
Maybe at the end of every month people will nominate and vote for the most interesting grows that have been shown on here for that month so the next month the winner will gain a master cultivator title kinda for recognition and shits n giggles.
I started the thread so I'll bow out on any nominations but I know a few people on here that I would love to recognize for the great job they've done so I thought this could be an inishative to keep on keeping on
What you guys think?

This is a pretty good idea!
Start a thread and let people throw around names? Then a new thread with a poll of those names?

Yea something like that I just gotta kinda work out the logistics "rules and all".
I want karode or mostly to pop in here and give me they're ideas as well.
Hello guys??? Is this a decent idea to give people respect for doing a good job and sharing knowledge? I figure this could lift a few people up to let them know that their knowledge and skills are appreciated here

With regards to a tag for trusted or master cultivator, this has come up before.
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19989633
Any grows that are outstanding and offer up good teks, etc, can be added to the USEFUL, INFORMATIVE, & INTERESTING POSTS/LINKS post stickied at the top.

No not a tag just a known thing over the forum kinda like whoever wins the best photo or the grafting contest. Just something to let people know that their work is appreciated without adding a tag under their name.

Maybe we can also rename it something else "maybe 1up or just great job for sharing your cultivation skills" to take the stigma of "Trusted cultivator tag " out of the equation.
Something no more than a great job for the month
I really think this can be a positive thing and I hope that you guys "Moderators" Will pop in and make sure the communities votes are counted properly and the winner is notified and thanked for their contribution to the forum.
Think about it guys I know this is a positive thing to have here

I got what you wanted to do Spaceman It is not an easy thing like Picture of the month, it is more difficult because it's not "Instantaneous"
but i have some an idea for a contest, it could be something like that Seed sowing contest We choose what people should sown, it could be cactus, ethnos, any thing, but it could be better if all choose the same thing, so, tryng to get the most popular thing, i guess it's cacti People that want to join the contest must "register" and they have the commitment to update theyr project at least monthly Every partecipant chooses a genus that they like and they are allowed to sow a precise quantiti of seeds (like 100) in theyr onw substrate, with theyr methods We put date of start. in that date every partecipant sows seeds and the challenge starts. Challenge ends at the end of the sixt month. every one posts final results, and there is a bit of voting. it could be a jury, made by moderators or everybody votes. creteria for the vote, other than best growt is the coiche and the difficult of the seedlings. if you choose Cereus and i did choose aztekium, it's obvious that i will not get the same growt as you.
Winner wins glory and can put "Winner of Seedling contest" in it's signature, yes, it's kinda lame, but who cares, i would do that for fun.

I can get down with that. Also we could work on organizing a bunch of different threads for various types of plants. Just like the flowers thread or the loph growers unite thread but a little more organized, a thread for each genus would be cool.

Well, There are already some of Genus threads, like Lophohpora, Trichocereus, Gymnocalycium, Mammillaria and more. I don't get what kind of organization you think of. Anyhow, putting a single thread for every genus could be pointless Imo. I don't see much succes for the possible "Show us your Eulychnia" thread. Lophs and trichs obviously have their place here, Mamms, astros and Gymnos are both popular and common. But some species are rare, some other are not even collected. That is why there's the "Cactus that don't need a separate thread" thread
True is indeed that we have no separate treads for "not cactus related" ethnos.

^ my point exactly we need to group relative information on other types of plants. So that, let's say someone wants to learn up on growing mucuna pruriens (velvet bean), they just come into the ethno garden and go to that thread

I believe that would just be a lot of work for the moderators and add a ton of threads that a lot of people other that maybe 2 or 3 would have any use for.
I talked to someone of higher rank over these forums and he kind of explained that a lot of people on here wouldn't like recognition for their work and would just like to help quietly.
I understand that and agree but I do think for a lot of people recognition for a great job could push them to step up another notch so

said so, i still think that the Sowing contest is something really easy to start, and with a bit of consensus , it can become something beautiful As i said before, rules would be pretty much basic stuff. we can work on than, and by the way, i woul like to hear suggestions. I also would like someone to say "Im in!" so we could just count on a number of contestants. Anything could be menaged in a single thread. I know that it is not what you originally conceived, but it came up, and i feel it is something we should work on Are you in Spaceman?

I believe everything in those pics or at least 99% of it has been hand grown from seed

No, it is not your entry XD i mean, it is great,kudos to everithyng that you are doing, growing and grafting there, but i was talking about something else. not a contest that deals of current projects, but that focuses on entirely new things! A contest made by people that start seeds the same Day ! For example: We do get "subscriptions": every member that sees this should say if he is intrested in partecipating this contest and commints to be a contestant, prepare seeds and be ready to keep tracks of an imminent project We establish rules for the contest : contest lenght, number of seeds to sow etc We establish a starting date ( EXAMPLE : 10 May ) All the contestants start sowing that day. First post for everyone explains what kind of seeds is sown, pics of substrate, basically anyone explains current situation Every month (or earlier) everyone updates with pics, and status of seeds. Contest ends after a reasonable amount of time ( 6 months sounds great) . every contestant shows final results. criteria for winning are cactus difficulty, number of seedlings, growht archivied, and so on. Also a jury can be made by Mods and other members that are not currently partecipating the contest.
Undestand now?
