Title: Deleted -- Contest #8 - CLOSED
Post by: sc4001992 on October 10, 2022, 03:02:43 PM
===================
Contest will end on OCt 31.
===================


It looks like i can take a few more cuttings from my Peluche grafts so I will have this last contest for the year again for a chance to win a free Peluche scion cutting.

This loquat cutting will be from my grafted tree that is a proven Peluche with the large orange flesh fruits. The origin of this Peluche source is Adam (Flying Fox Fruits). My tree has fruited for 2 years, currently has many large green fruits on them now. When the fruits ripen, I will post some photos and follow up on the taste comparison to my other varieties. Last year I gave it a taste rating of 8-9 out of 10 (best). I do not taste any funny taste, or mushy texture that a few members here have stated, maybe they have a problem with their rootstock? If there is any flavor/taste that is negative, I will mention it on my review this season.

Here's the free contest rules: 
1. Only open to forum members that have been a member for at least 1 year. month
2. For those who live in contiguous (lower 48 states) USA.
3. You will need to pay for handling/shipping of $11, USPS priority mail, small box.
4. Cutting will be 1/4"-3/8" hardened wood. Tree is a vigorous grower.
5. Contest will go on until some lucky person guesses the correct answer.
6. You must post your guess here, do not send me a PM.

I have the right to refuse to offer this to anyone that is on my bad (no sell) list.

7. Pick a number in the range of 1-100, only TWO guesses per member.

-> I will use a random number generator to pick the winning number now.
I will check in each day to see if anyone has won. Once there is a winner, I will post it, and send a PM to the winner. The winner has 1 week to confirm they want the cutting.

For those that have not made a guess yet. You can always make one guess, then wait a few days to make your second guess as the number set will get smaller as people guess the wrong number.

Good to hear, my Peluche seedlings are doing well, hope we end up with a new variety that has large fruits and tastes great. Imperiale is a new variety here so you may come up with the next best one in 3-5 yrs.

(https://i.postimg.cc/tTKGwR2C/Peluchi-Guesses-10-23-22.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)

Here's a clue. The winning number is 2 digits, and someone already guessed it backwards.

It looks like 14, 74, 86, 87 are remaining options that meet the clue. I've used up my 2 guesses but this forum is about helping others, and we need more Peluche in this world. Good luck to the remaining forum members!
I knew with some simple POE it could be brought down...

Not the correct remaining options though, but I feel posting them takes the fun out of it. I see 6 remaining, 2 of those are on your list.

So by the end of October, if no one guesses the correct number, I will pick the person who made the closes guess and they will get the Peluche cutting.

Contest will end on OCt 31.

The winning number is 87, since no one got it, I will give the Peluche to the two people who were closest to this number.

1. Number 86-OKvid
2. Number 88-Malhar

Congratulations:  You have 1 week to contact me (PM) and pay the $11 for shipping of the Peluche cutting[
