I thought about going to the CC for like 10 seconds. Then I went in April and found out that I like the "kinda sorta crowed but not really" amount of people as opposed to "HOLY SHITBALLS" amount of people. This is also why I will most likely avoid Queen's Day.Prestoned wrote:I cant blieve they sell seeds.
The cups bullshit, whoever throws the most of money at it, be it bribes, samples, advertising or merchandise etc, will win. Just my thoughts, enjoy it if your there tho.
Did you think you'd get rid of me that easily?
If I can find the video where I first heard this I'll post it but you might be waiting a long time as I haven't a clue where I saw it so dont hold your breath.SGawain235 wrote:I'm not saying you are wrong but is there an article, link, something?

You have to remember the cups that the public vote on near enough always go to Barneys and/or Greenhouse and from what I've seen on the net and been told both shops give loads of shit away, I'm pretty sure I remember seeing Barneys giving away t-shirts to the judges when they made their purchases, I dont know about anyone else but I'm a sucker for cannabis related merchandise so I think I'd come away from whoever gave me the most free stuff favourably too them.

It's ok. It isn't a "mission critical" bit of information.
This actually goes in with something that I have observed from the trip reports here. When people start out on a trip the first few strains tend to have a fairly detailed description(nutty overtones, pineapple aroma, etc.) but as they smoke more and more pot it becomes simpler(to quote someone from another forum, "This shit is strong as hell!"). I would imagine(unless you have an extremely high tolerance) that it might be really difficult to judge strains after you've smoke around 5 or 6. Because of this it might easily come down to who gave the most stuff away.
