Guess the cacti competition!!

Recommended Posts

As promised, a new competition to pass on the good will from all competition runners (especially strangebrew and apothecary :wub: ).

A game of skill and a game of luck (well, mostly luck).

The name of the game is to guess the number of tips in my cacti collection, which is having it's second birthday in February. The winner is the person who correctly guesses the number or the closest guess under the true number ala the price is right. (Sorry about the image size but it helps with the guessing)

As you can see, I have a weakness for the cacti... a wildcard is the lophophora caespitosa on the front of the bbq. Don't forget the cacti under the stand to the left of the bbq as well!

The prize is a ~25cm cut of this seed grown peruvianus. For example, this bad boy has four tips

Only one post per person and one guess per post - to appear as the first item in your post.

Example:

382

*Insert some comment here if you find it necessary*

F**k me oxy, you have got way too many f**cking cacti, seek professional help

Double posters/double guessers will be disqualified.

Competition only open to Australian residents.

Competition closes at this timestamp on Boxing Day 26th December.

Final number determined by yours truly.

BTW, I have no idea of the number, the count will occur after the competition closes

Good luck all!

I count five.

oxy man I can still see the ground in your garden? You can't have 'too many' cacti until the ground is swallowed up by pots, or at least converted into cacti friendly raised beds.

PS: Your cut goes out tomorrow :)
