👨🌾 To enter the Grand Pheno Hunt you need to be a Growcast Member. You can join Growcast Membership anytime before February 15th 2025 to participate in the hunt.
🇺🇸 You must be located in the USA or Canada to be eligible for the Grand Prize. If you’re a member residing outside of North America you are still welcome to join the Hunt, and you will be eligible for secondary prizes.
🪴 For this round of the challenge you can choose any genetics you want – whether it be GrowCast Genetics, old school stuff you have saved, or a new hype pack you just bought.
🌿 Each Member will select a specific roster of genetics to run in the hunt, using a point system to keep the odds fair. Each hunter will have 12 points to spend on their hunt roster- feminized seeds count as 2 points, non feminized count for 1 point.
🌱 Your roster isn’t finalized until your seedlings break ground, so pop extra seeds to ensure a full lineup! Once you’ve locked in your final lineup, you cannot change your Pheno Hunt plants.
‼️ IMPORTANT: You MUST take and keep cuttings of your winning prize pheno in order to be eligible for the ultimate grand prize.
