can you please post the full rules for the 420 2011 .

as im and 1 or 2 others are still confused .

when i email gipsy he said i can only enter the breeders cup with my own strain , i only make auto seeds so that meens i cant enter the breeders cup as there isnt a auto cup as any breeder cud enter a reg stain and say its a auto ..
i cant enter the growers cup because i sell autos on seedbay and other sites .

cheers

Well its about time Auto's were recognised as a seperate body! The massive progress thats been made with them & the potential for the future is huge. The returns are certainly being made on them!

I think they have earned their place at the Cup. The seedbanks related to this site sell the wares, so the breeders should be entitled to have their own seperate Cup entries for autos imo.

It will come in the end, its bound to. If its not at this Cup it should be, but even if it aint, it should be at the next!

Itd be something if you get to enter the NYLDeeeeez & it goes & gets placed against Reg strains, i think that would prove the point, still, thats not quite fair, Auto's are relitively new to the market, & should most definately have their own section at any Cup, afterall its new Marijuana.
Good Luck with your entry Cheesey, I know it'll do well! Fingers crossed for ya Mate!

Peace!

if that is the case then feminized should have their own category too. i do not care if the beans are auto, fem or staight as long as the herb is great.

shouldn't really matter that your plants are auto ,,i cant see a reason why u can't compete in the breeders cup with your auto strain ..it still produces bud and will give u a chance to show that autos are as good as regular .if they are ..

i don't see why breeders can't enter growers cup if they are entering a strain they havn't bred ,they're only showing off their growing skills and not promoting their own strains

beacuse i havnt any autos ready as i was told there wont be a cup for autos ...... and they shouldnt be in the same class as reg plants i think . dont get me wrong they can be a great smoke but no way on par with alot of reg strains ...

i havnt kicked myself at all . read what i said . not on par with reg strains ie sour d , chem d , kq , chem x sour d ect ect . you do find 1 or 2 great strong smokes in autos but remeber u cant keep them as u cant clone autos . out of all the autos i have grown 3 or 4 have been banging super strong with great taste rated a high 9/10 is sour d was a 10/10 ...

Auto's are a hybrid type & should have their own cat, you cant put them in the same cat as strains that have been being produced for decades almost now, youve got Indica cat, Sativa cat, etc, Auto are relitively new & are still in an early development stage, its as simple as that!¬) Auto's have their own agenda & should be treated as such, just my opinion!
If Auto's had been being developed for the last 20+years the way Sati & Indica strains have it would be fair then yeah, but they havent have they!
Its like putting a Terrier up against a Greyhound in a running race! There's a few ways of looking at it.
Auto's are Auto's! Non-Photo'period,They've come along way & have a way to go yet!!

Anyway, i think another category in any Cup, just improves the whole event, why not, its not a bad thing is it! seedbanks are selling them like wildfire, theve certainly earnt there place imo. each to there own!

Mate I see your dilemma... and you can't find "keepers" as it were as you can't really clone autos either (and of course all the regular growers are doing exactly that, selecting over time).

Tough call mate.

chessy why you not just entering in the breeder category??
if you look at the entering from the last years you will find some breeder that entering not their strains...

because isnt the whole point of entering the breeders cup is too enter with your own strain ? not a clone only found by some1 else ?
also i thought you cant do this it had to be you own cross .

lesson learned, back in business
IF your a breeder you can enter something your working with, it has been done like that previously (for example ECSD from Rez).
Cant wait, peace.
