Sinple guide to posting for HAP (draft)
The official rules are posted here for reference:
http://www.gsas.org/Articles/hap.html
So the basic idea is that when you propagate a plant you make an entry on
your list stating the scientific name (if known), method of propagation
(runner), and # clamed (up to 2) when possible it is nice to include the
common name (if known) and any other important details.
The next part is finding the class and then the point value. For example
Java Fern is in the "B" class with 10 points.
Total the number of points at the bottom and send it in. Pick the method
you are most comfortable with be it post to the GSAS list, email me off list
(I may post your "final" draft for the list, or hand me a piece of paper
with the names written. I want to make this easy.
For example I would accept:
Class B (10pts) Microsorum pteropus (by runner, 1st claim)
You mentioned that you were worried about the "observed" requirement. I
would love to see a picture either posted if electronic or developed but my
thinking is that documentation requirements increase with award level. So
for your first 100 points or so based on your email posting stating that you
do like plants I will take you at your word. If you do something
interesting, like flower a plant I would very much like to see at least a
picture though. Since the next meeting is the auction which will be very
busy with lots of people we can wait to the next meeting to show pictures
etc. Again, do what ever works for you and I will accommodate as much as
possible.
I will use this email as a placeholder for winning a bag of clippings. If
you can post a draft list to the gsas list (one plant will do, it can be
improved later) I will give you your choice of the grassy, ludgwegia, or
build your own prize.

I would LOVE to post something on the HAP side, but I'm still not sure how
to do it. I'm busy propagating plants, though, and I got my first tank in
July. So how do I submit what I've done so far?

It looks like Betty will score the second BAP post once she counts all of
her snails and posts it on the GSAS email list. So my offer of plant
packages was is hopes of spurring the HAP side though. Just so the plant
people do not feel left out I will offer two additional plant packages to
the next two HAP posts. Package 1 will feature 3 types of ludgwegia and
package two will feature grassy plants like S subuleta, chain sword and
Jungle val. If they are not claimed, they will go to the auction. I
should
also offer a novice package... Post on the list if you think you qualify.
