You are more than welcome to not be interested into this contest or not want to take part of this contest. Just a quick reminder, I am a real human being...This isn't my job, I do not receive money or any monetary or ANY other benefit other than making my fellow community members happy and trying to have fun here... As I stated before, I do apologize for nothing being 100% onto this contest but i can happily say that i am 95% done in terms of announcing winners of this contest...There is ONE other winner to be decided and that is the OVERALL contest winner, who will be decided by community members in a vote that I will be personally setting up today or the next day...although I am genuinely going to try to get it set up today..I want to reiterate that while I have been late in finishing things up, I do promise things have been moving forward albeit, slowly. Again, my real life obligations to friends and family are very important to me as well and while I am trying my very best to get things moving alot quicker I am only one person. If people feel that I have genuinely taken ''to long'' in this contest and no longer want to partcipate then all i can say is, I am sorry...I did my best and again. I am one man, and am only human. i do apologize. I just left work now and came to type this, I am taking my 5 year old little boy to his indoor soccer game and then after that hopefully I can come back and get some things done with this contest while getting some sleep tonight for a 12 hour shift I have upcoming and taking care of my little one. i hope everyone has a wonderful day and when winners are announced I will personally message you about your prizes and how to receive them. They are coming directly from me and while some are donated by great members of this community the rest will be coming from me personally. I do hope everyone had fun and my delay has not ruined it for anyone. I hope you all have a wonderful day and I love you all.
PEACE

So what's the general consensus. I imagine aa cfl could compete with a solo auto. Also are autos worth it? When I read about them yiels very immensely. What the best yielded. Or what's the average yield. On autos. Im in month 5 of a dwc. One plant
I'll get on real computer a post pictures.

First off, I want to say this. there is no need for anyone to apologize to me, I understand peoples eagerness to see results and the winners of the contests. While i do have IRL obligations to take care of RIU duties here to take care of, there is not an excuse good enough to pardon me from bein slow...I have literally been taking up any time that i have on RIU at all and devoting it to this contest rather than me duties as as MOD here at RIU.
Now with that stuff in mind I want to make a few announcemnets about the contest, this may be a long read and there WILL be more than one post and possible more than just this thread, however for right now let me start at square one so hunker down and blaze some meds and get ready for a nice, long read, it will be worth it, I promise... I want to start off this post and announcement by taking the time to thank a number of peopple who have helped me with this contest, I can almost guarentee i wont get everyone and I apologize for that, I will try to get eveyone and If I forget some poeple, Im very very sorry and please PM me or contact me letting me know that I may have forgotten you so i can fix my silly mistake and have you included...but anyways.
There are some people I want to thank, Starting off with of course the lady. This person has done countless things to help behind the scenes, in the thread and many many other things...I want to thank this beautfiul lady for all she has done for me, Not to mention all of the times she messaged me asking to let her take over some of my responsibilities to hurry the contest along a bit quicker. The reason I did not want her to was because as a Global Moderator, she was one of very very few people that are globals, I belive thereis her and then maybe 3 or 4 AT most other global mods so in order for her to take over she would have had to make even more sacrifices to her other daily responsibilities which i know is alot...she has enough on her plate and it wouldnt have been fair for her to have even more. BUT nonetheless, she did help in a TON of other ways and for that I am more grateful than words could say. This person, of course, is sunni
Thank you so much for all your help sunni, you truely are the best and I love you for it, all the help you provided was tremendous and I coudlnt have dont it without you again guys, if you see her around the forums be SURE to thank her becasue without her help, I would not have been able to accomplish all of the things I did pertaining to this contest, not to mention she was on my side from the begining when I was trying to set this contest tup and get approval from the upper management here and she helped alot in that aspect so, again thank you sunni your the best!
Next on the list are two non moderator members that literally had the idea for THIS contest and started the idea and movement of the entire thing. All that I did was take their idea, being a staff member, intorduced it to rollie (the owner) and the higher higher up and powers that be. I took it to them to get it approved and of course it did, which is why we had the competition...but...without TEKDC911 and SXLSTEW this contest would had never even been created to be honest, this stuff was NOT my idea,...All i did was run it because I was staff that supported it...TEK came up with the idea and then STEW and TEK sort of took over in countless ways to get it started and advertise for it, If you look at the other stickies in the autoflower sub-forums, you will see that STEW created a beautiful poster/picture to advertise for the contest and get it started, I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart for motivating me to noy nly do this contest but helping me in other, countless ways just like sunni did....thank you so much guys your both awesome...Another person I want to give an honorable mention to is the RIU member JEFFDOG...he is just a simple member, he is not staff....in the very begining if you go and look at the other contest threads, literally when this stuff was just starting jeffdpg was another dude that ws supporting the contest and trying to get it running, it was actually him and TEKDC911 that were the two dude oringally that bugged me to get it going lol which is awesome in my eyes so thank all three of you for doing so much, you guys are awesome!!!
Now, there were other judges and what not that gave me their time, support and other things to get this contest going and while It did end up not working out exacrtly how I wanted to it or anyone wanted it to for that matter, I still think it is awesome that they offered their help and were ready to do anything for me and for this contest and community at the drop of the hat...that is awesome and they are awesome people for doing it in my opinion. those people are, in no particular order:
SOMEBEECH (judge and great person)
PotPimp (judge and great person)
tekdc911 (riu member)
sxlstew (riu member)
sunni (mod and a beautiful person, inside and out)
greatwhitenorth (judge and a great person)
now, these are only the people i could think of off the top of my head, i am almost positive i missed oneo r two people. but im sorry, im only human, however....I have announcment to make about the contest coming up very soon, im jus trying to finish up some work on a few things and then i will be making the announcement ! talk to you all soon guys, peace

alrighty boys and girls this is what I need from YOU, the people who are IN the contest still...The highest yield ive seen so far (i have not double checked) is about 12-14grams for their one plant....now...unless someone can beat that or knows they have higher, that person whoever it is, i need to look, will be awarded the highest yielding winner...if anyone thinks or knows thye have a higher yielding plant then they need to post a pic of it, weighed, right here, right now...i will give a few days for that person to come forward and do so, if no one does come forward then the winner will be announced by me shortly...
also...I assume that most are indoor competitors, i know we have 2 or 3 outdoor people. if anyone else was an outdoor competitor and wants to be sure there plant gets judged correctly they need to post a pic of it right here, right now on this page, i have gone back thrrough this 35 page thread about 10 times...i am getting tired of doing it and while i am trying my best to finish this up its getting tougher and tougher for me to discern....it is also hard for me to differ from sativa and indica entries so we may just have...best indoor, best outdoor....best yielder and bestoverall...im going to do my best here but im only one person, i need some help from YOU guys. thanks! but please stay tuned, im 99.9999% sure at least ONE winner will be announced TONIGHT.
