Boners right, this was brought to light after some blogger submitted a Freedom Of Information request to High Times about the amount each shop was spending.Stanky Danky wrote:Let me guess, it was some random idiot on a pot forum trying to talk shit.Boner wrote:Stanky, I've read both Greenhouse & Barneys pay Hightimes €50,000 a year for bribes sorry I meant advertising.
I'll try and find the blog.
It's also well known that GHS will do anything to win it.
They give out free weed, pass massive vaporizer bags around the coffeeshop and generally do anything to win.
The biggest proof of all is the fact that GHS's strains win so much, when if you actually smoke or grow 'em they're pish in my opinion.

so basically you go to brown nose a few people bong and get some free stuff
I also remember Nol (co-owner of the Willie Wortel in Haarlem) saying something about picking some lighters up and he noticed that there was some for Greenhouse that said Cannabis Cup winner for that year only it was a couple of months before the cup had even ran.
Being pedantic and knobbish since 1972
Its simple just have a look at past winners
in last 10year GH won 4-5 times first place Barney's 4-5 first places and NOON wit BB in 2000
and DIDNT The people DROP out of the cup 1-2 time saying that WAS unfair cause other shop was BUYING the votes wit BIG money! and well all know that Ajar is full of money and same wit Barney's owner 
I'd guess from this pic Bulldog are entering Silver Star Haze:

As a huge fan of the Bulldog breed (the god edit: I meant dog but I'll leave god up as its funny
) I'd be buzzing for those freebies.

Im sorry but they dont "buy'' cups but DO spend money advertising their goods as any good business sould, im sure that its ultimately worth it as that money would be made back quite quickly.Stanky Danky wrote:Let me guess, it was some random idiot on a pot forum trying to talk shit.Boner wrote:Stanky, I've read both Greenhouse & Barneys pay Hightimes €50,000 a year for bribes sorry I meant advertising.
I think that the prestige of the canna cup has gone, theres plenty of good strains that are better than cup winners, generally clone only phenos that tend to be region specific psychosis down south bluez up north so no longer is the canna cup an indicator as to the best bud in tha world
