Marty,
at what time does the weekly posting end? Is it at 12am Monday? Is it 12am in Pacific Time, Mountain Time, Central Time, Eastern Time or Atlantic Time [all US & Canada]?
Thanks

Thanks Marty... let me see if I've got this right it
says at the bottom of the page:

"All times are GMT +10. The time now is 03:25 AM."

So EST is the same as GMT - 4 hrs .... erm um... maybe it's time I should go to bed

it would be 3.25 + 10? -4? = EST?

I suck at maths!

Do you mean a new thread? Go to subforum you want to start a new thread in and then click on the button New Thread located just above the list of the existing threads.

First of all, welcome to this board. Second, I would recommend going to http://www.orchidboard.com/community...ons-break-ice/ and introducing yourself. Then after that follow links to post for contest.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

I think, contest for Australians ends at 2 p.m., Sunday. And for me it will be at 6 a.m. , Sunday. Hope, I didn't make mistake.

I googled time and found
The World Clock - Time Zones - sorted by time zone
EST time is running behind my local time by 14 hours so Saturday 12am [techically Sunday] EST time [NY Miami etc] would be as you said 2pm Sunday here in Australia [Melbourne/Sydney etc Time Zone].

Thanks Shadow
