Main reason I am done( I should say we ) is most of my team has already left the building and rarely post here anymore nor participate .We have had several amazing members step up and help with seed dispersal and we are very thankful so that was not the issue . With so many things going on we just don't have the time we used to and our seed stock obviously isn't what it used to be . . I am sure somebody ( maybe you ) can keep the candle lit and keep the growdown going next year and many more .
As for why allow Bpeila to buy a plant and use it . Like I said this entire contest has been a flop so why not give him a chance . He is one of the very few that even post updates . And you can look at the plant and tell it hasn't been sown very long ago . If it is over 4 months old which I highly doubt it has to be shocked/root bound to be that small . I hope he does decide to play because we need players . As for extending the contest . We thought about that but that would be totally unfair to our Northern Brethren who don't have the novelty of growing that late into the year .
My Peruvian is ready to head out into the real world . Just letting all the tropical weather pass just to be safe
