How Many Judges Are There?
There are between 10 and 14 judges per category. This depends on entry type and how many categories we run for that particular Cup. Judges can be individuals or small groups representing brands and companies within the Cannabis Community in South Africa.
Who are the judges and how are they selected?
Our Judging panel consists of a broad variety of cannabis experts, professionals & lovers; including Cannabis and Growing enthusiasts, Medical Professionals, Respected Rastas, Canna-business Owners and everyday stoners. We hand-select our judges from the cannabis community all around South Africa. We then go to great lengths to screen and ensure that the Judges selected match the spirit and ethos of the Stoned O’lympics. We aim to maintain a diverse group of judges who are extremely dedicated to both the cause and the task of judging.
How do you ensure the THC / CBD lab tests are accurate?
As Stoned O’lympics, we have the greatest confidence in the Gemmacert Test administered through our official Testing Partners, The Best Grow. The test on each strain is repeated on different days to help ensure accuracy. For more information on the machine used in testing visit: https://gemmacert.com/product/gemmacert-pro/
