I'm with you there mr. west. Last couple of years would have most likely dragged me much deeper if it wasn't for weed. You gotta love the shrinks that prescribe that shit with no follow ups. Just take these, they say, and have a nice day. Who's the pushers here really?

There'll be no more Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! But you may feel a little sick.

As EM said, it was a disappointing end with all the usual suspects picking up the prizes. SPEND MORE MONEY = MORE HTCC wins. (very simple equation) GHS win, Barneys Farm win, Cali Connet win (import hash), and the best place in the whole town with the best weed, got a 3rd place for the Grey Crystals - Nederhash. There was some special guest from some old hippie movement in the US, The House of the something something...can't quite remember, it was all getting a bit boring by that point. Anyway, these guys revolutionised weed and lsd in the US in the 60's and started there own church or something (I am sure some of the crew here will know the name). Well they done a blind test on the strains, and the T-Line (strawberry sour diesel) from the Grey Area/Devils Harvest was their favourite. This was what got my vote as well.GHS got top prize for the Exo cheese hash....omg is all I can say. But I guess they throw enough promo and cash at it. Worst people for receving prizes were Cali Connect. Swerve's on stage with his crew throwing out t-shirts and hats and what not, meanwhile Swerve is shouting over the mic (or barking) Cali Connect, Get Connected, .co.uk, blah blah, Get connected, Tahoe OG, Get Connected.....oh fukkin shut up you tool, you are embarrassing yourself in my eyes. This is not what weed is about as far as I am concerned. Big Buhhda Tahoe also one a prize...I mean what's all that about, it ain't Big Buhhda's. Another weird thing, DNA genetics and Reserva Privada were entering the competition under different names with the same product......get your head round that. Seriously, I just don't know about the whole competition thing. One thing I do know, every winner will have their seeds purchased by every dispensary and every medical grower in many different countries, so you can see the benefit of winning on the financial front.

To cap the Cup off, they didn't allow anyone to smoke inside the Melkweg which is the concert hall/venue for the night time parties. The whole week people had been smoking but I guess the event had been told, nope, this is not allowed. Even though it's only tobacco that is banned form being smoked inside. Politics again destroying everything. When will this ever end people?

Peace,

Who know's if there will be a cup next year. But for sure it will be a lot different unless the atmosphere changes.

I have personally grown several of the Cali connection strains, and smoked several as well. Im not sure if they are over hyped or not, but their Sour OG that I have right now is some pretty good meds IMO. Swerve may be a jackass, and I dont know much about him honestly, but from what I have grown and smoked, his gear is pretty good...


If there is a cup next year, I hope to see the DOG on the menu!!!

No doubt his gear his good, Bill. I just find the whole Cali Connect attitude a bit OTT. It's just not my way but it obviously works for them. OG's are OG's, I got a seed from some of his gear, I don't think anyone will ever get an OG based strain not to produce a couple of seeds here and there. And Barneys also do what they do, like GHS they are a large beast. But why would you not win the cup when you have 3 or 4 shops for people to visit, against other entries who only have one. It's all a number game as far as I am concerned. It was good fun though and amazing getting to speak to loads of people about what I love to do.

When the Tax people interviewed me I felt like saying, even if I wasn't getting stoned, I would stand here all day for free and talk to people about weed!!! But then they probably wouldn't have understood that.

But it's sunny during the day right?
For the most part. Sometimes it is overcast in the morning, I live <3 miles from the ocean, so we often have a heavy marine layer.

Plants seem to grow fine on cloudy days though...

Too true, plants don't need 12 hours of direct sun, that's why I am now running my lights intemitently, I reckon it saves me about 15-20% of the bill as each light has a couple of hours off throughout each 12 hour period. The cab is always lit by at least 1x600 so no great shakes when one goes off. We only had 1 week of good sun here and I thought my outdoor turned out perfectly as well.
