Hi all. What do you think about the photo contests? Have they run their course? We've only had two submissions this month and I'm one of them. Please let me know what you think. I don't see any need to keep it going if it is not something you are interested in. Here is the link to this month's contest january-photo-contest-flytaps-are-beautiful-t49151.html

I enjoy the photo contest! I just don't have anything to submit this month since I already packed all my plants away in the fridge. I think we should let the contests go go for a while longer and see how they do in the coming months.

I really enjoy them as well and am happy to donate prizes! I think that Leah and I could promote them more in social media and perhaps we'd get some more participation? Unfortunately, it seems like most people enjoy spending their online time on Facebook of Instagram these days. Might be hard to pry them away from their social media time, but maybe with a bit of promotion, it would be possible?

Same here, I saw the old photo contests when I first joined and was sad I missed out on them, and I like having them now!
...But all my flytraps are dormant at the moment. Not super photogenic. :cry:

Ah, so the topic may be the problem. I thought all CP people were like me and kept pictures of their plants ontheir phones like their children. :D
