Day 1

I’ll get a ruler with cm and repost. Didn’t have one handy yesterday. Easily converted also.
1 inch = 2.54 cm

This is getting serious, remember it’s for fun. We will not be that accurate in measurements anyways. Angle of the camera can also skew results. How many significant figures are we using?

BEST OF LUCK TO ALL, HAPPY REEFING!

Can we all agree to place the ruler on top of the plug using CM?
That would be easier if everyone got the same ruler. Lol. Unfortunately mine has a huge gap. But my measurement will be consistent since it’s going to be resting on my frag rack everytime

maybe someone can search on Amazon and post link and everyone buy same ruler?
I was handling these rulers out for the ”Pimped Out” growout. The markings start right off the edge of the ruler. It’s a little flexible so you won’t accidentally break it. I have gotten them at CVS. It’s only $1.20 each

I guess I can grab one. From there…but is it necessary for everyone to use the same? I kinda like mine tho. It’s very clear and easy to read

I don’t think the ruler really matter. According to the rules, it’s the overall growth from the first post of the growout. 2cm of growth is 2cm of growth no matter where you start on the ruler. As long as everyone agree to using CM not IN for units of measurement.

5. You will each be provided a ruler when you pick up your frag. A sample photo of how to post will be added once we have our frags.

Everybody talking about a ruler…what happened to rule #5? Just quoting from original post/rules.
Ball was dropped on this, lets not focus on this nothing issue and move forward.

Sorry about the rulers … we intended to also hand out rulers but as Jose mentioned any ruler will do and should be a null issue. If you absolutely have no access to a ruler PM me your address I will Amazon one to you.

Remember it’s about total growth so even if your ruler starts at 30 CM, as long as you always measure starting at that mark, it won’t make a difference.

As a rule of thumb, yes please use the CM side of the ruler and measure from base of plug or rock if you removed it from the plug.
