CONTEST (three catagories) WIN SEEDS. CLOSED

Well hello there boys and girls.

I thought it would be fun to involve our kids in a seed contest.

I have fifty different seeds in my collection. Time to share.

Here is what I have in mind:

Three categories:

Age 3 - 11 year olds

Age 12 - 17 year olds

Age 18 - 100 year olds

One prize of ten seed packets per category.

Winner of youngest category gets first pick.
Mid age range gets second pick.
Elders get third pick.

I want the younguns to score.

I want to see drawings, scetches, paintings. Things you would post on the fridge.

Entries must include proof. A reference to THP WILL BE FINE or the kid holding up the pic.

Contest ends midnight March 6th PST. I will judge Saturday March 7th.

What if your 101 years old,act like a 2 year old and think your still 12-17 yrs. old.
But you don't know how to draw and or put it on the internet...  LOL
 
Just razzing you,I'm bored at work.
 
Hope to see some great artwork.
Cool contest.New approach.
I like it.
Great idea...original.
I've seen photo contests but can't remember drawing/artwork ones.
Only ones for hot sauce labels or whatever.
Not what you are doing.
Good things wished to ya for this.
Gotta make the pepper gods cut you some slack. :)
 
Can't wait to see stick figure peppers from 3 yr. olds. :)
Crayons rock!
 
Nice seed selection too.
 
Round up the kiddos and teach them to grow peppers. Their artwork could win them seeds.

Let's see some art people.

I thought this would be appropriate for a plant forum!  My daughter Phaelan loves growing stuff, but has not started with peppers yet.  She would love to pick out a seed and grow it with Daddy though.  Sorry, no pick of her holding it.  We are protective about posting her pictures on the internet.  There are a lot of weirdos out there.  She is 7.

     Wow! My wife (plant pathologist) and I (certified arborist) are impressed by her knowledge of plant anatomy. Better than most folks on this forum!
     I got extra excited when I thought she was trying to spell "phloem". Then I realized she was just signing her piece with her name.
 
 
edit: I love looking at the artwork of little kids. Is that UFO abducting that camel?
 
VERY NICE!!!

younguns need not be pictured. I understand.

This is just what I'm looking for!

Geat work Phaelan!

I agree, to be honest I don't know plant anatomy.  Montessori schools rock!  She is constantly teaching me things, lol.
 
The UFO is actually a snake... A flying snake...  And she didn't just make this up.  She described it to me in detail when I just asked her what it was.  She described how it flattened itself out to make a wing so it could glide.  Another piece of knowledge I knew nothing about...

Not a contest entry, but she insisted that she wanted a pepper picture as well seeing where this would be posted.

Good on ya.

You can't tell me their is no pictures stuck to your fridge. It could earn you and your youngun some choice seeds. Post them up folks.
