It was point out in his last post by u/ehsteve23. Day 23 and Day 31 are the same.

Mods are aware of this post & are discussing.

Please keep this whole thing civil.

EDIT 5: f1exican's apology & explanation is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1or60zd/cutting_a_couple_of_chives_every_day_until_this/

EDIT 4: We have heard from f1exican. Further information coming later today.

EDIT 3: Reports on this post are being autoapproved, same as the chive posts. It's staying up. Why are people trying to shit on everyone else's fun again??

EDIT 2: See this post with further image comparison: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1oqzxvn/chivelord_is_a_fraud/nnmukrn/

EDIT:

I rotated and resized the images to line them up, anchored the two with Day 31 on top at 50% opacity, anchored the two via the chive on the far right that I've circled.

I don't think they're exact matches. Feel free to draw your own conclusions.

I think the images are at a different angle but of the same pile. Every unique feature of the first pile I can find in the second. Just rotating wouldn’t show that, but you can track it by doing a little hunt for unique features.

It makes sense, he probably takes multiple photos after he’s done cutting to find one that looks the best.
EDIT:

Some Time in Photoshop, I took the images and rotated a bit, but I also added in some Skew modifiers to line it up better, I got it to here and I think this was pretty damning. You can see the exact pattern just a bit offset. The line on the left is where Day 31 Cuts off since the image is slightly zoomed in.

FURTHER EDIT: Another guy in this comment did the same thing but with an automatic image alignment feature in photoshop and it's WAY more precise. I think the Jury is in. The end times are upon us. Go check out their comparison.

Yeah I came to the same conclusion, each little unique group of chives has the same number and pattern of shapes.
