"I'm not dead yet!"

I'm new to pings. I bought a kit that came with 3 just over a month ago aaaaaaand quickly killed one and nearly the other two as well. One of those is basically on life support now. I think this one, at least, will survive. It was down to one sad leaf. I like the eeeeety beeeety root (less than 1/8" long) and the even itty bittier tuft of moss next to it. Not very impressive as pings go, I know, but I am "rooting" for it.

One week left, and we've got a tight race. Presently ChefDean and StaatS+17+ are tied for first place, but Hollyhock is within striking distance. Honestly, it is still anyone's race. But you have to vote!

Here are the current standings:
ChefDean 7
StaatS+17+ 7
Hollyhock 6
Panman 5
carnivorous_noob 4
Garden_Nymph 4
madrone 4
Optique 4
Bluefire 3
htbm 2

Get those thumbs ups going and vote for your favorites!

One week? Shouldn’t that have been “one day”? (Based on your post having been made Aug 31st.). As it is now September, we’d be starting September’s contest soon.

That's what I thought too.

Don't judge! Plant nerds sometimes need a little extra time to sort things out.
Just sayin'.

Sorry, I just hit the bump button. I realize I'm running behind but I had a big plant sale today that I was prepping for. I'll get it updated soon.

I hope the meet/sale went good!

Hi Everyone. Sorry for the delay, holiday weekend and all of that. The winner, pulling ahead in the eleventh hour is !@ChefDean! Congratulations! PM me for details on claiming your prize.

Thank you to everyone for participating. Keep an eye out today for this month's contest details. It's a little different than our usual fare.

I'd like to thank the Academy, because it's not just about me. It's about all of us, and our journey together to reach this destination.
I won't have time for autographs, but know I love all of you, my dearest fans, even the Stans.

Congrats, Chef!
