My Amsterdam Cannabis Cup Experience

[kefkataus]

Well first of all i just want to say that this was the biggest waste of time and money. The weed was just average shit that anyone can buy over in the states. In some case's. The weed is better in the states than in the dam. Most of the weed that they make and sell are mostly chemical bud. They put so much chemicals in the weed during the growing process that you can still taste it when you smoke it. Dont get me wrong. The weed got you high. Its just that Marijuana is suppose to be an all natural plant. Not a chemical plant. The hash was the same. It got you high, but its no better than just a regular bud off of the plant.
I visited over thirty shops in ten days. There are more coffeeshops in the dam, that i could have visited, but the thirty that i went to told me that anymore would be a waste of time. I visted shops like, BLUEBIRD, BARNEY'S, GREAY AREA, AMNESIA, BULLDOG, GREENHOUSE, and many others. All of them were basically the same. But i have to say one thing. I was impressed with one seed company shop that i visted. So if anyone wants to vistit the dam. I suggest that you drop by and smoke a fatty with this seed company. They have a great grow room display and the smoke is great. Probably the best place in the dam. This place in located the the right of central station if facing away from it. The shop is called DE DAMPKRING SEED COMPANY. This is the best place to visit. Just go inside and relax and smoke some bud with them. The owners are really cool.
This next section is what i think about buying a cannabis cup judge's pass. Its a total wast of time and money. You pay two hundred dollars to be a judge, then you have to pay to sample each entry into the cup. And there are a lot of entries to sample. So if you plan on going. Take at least an extra 1500 dollars with you. The judges pass's are a joke. You can still get into every party that is going on even if you dont have the cup pass. The only thing you might not be able to do is see the expo without it. But you can still pay 12 euro to visit the expo. By the way was a big waste of time. The only thing the expo offer's you in a buch of crap from vendors trying to sell there products to you. There were a couple of vendors offering free vape hits. But overall its not worth it.
I have to say that my cannabis cup trip was a total waste of time. If i was able to go back in time. Id beat my ass for going. Dont get me wrong. Amsterdam is a beautiful place. I did enjoy exploring the city. Its was probably the best part of the trip. Beside the Heineken Brewery. The best beer in town. So for all of you who want to go. Dont get overly excited about this place. I suggest going to this country during the spring time or even the summer. You will have a much better time.
All of my comments are my own. I know some of you will comment and say that im full of shit. Ive been smoking for over ten years. I have smoked the best. And its not in amsterdam. It comes from the mountains, in the great state of KENTUCKY. I would be willing to prove my statement, but the government of this land will not let me do so. So until we all make a stand and stand together. Marijuana will never be leagal in the U.S.
If anyone has any questions for me. Just ask. I will reply as soon as possible. Thanks again. :rasta:

You basicly just ripped the stoners place of joy to pieces. Ive been looking forward to going ever since i was 15, im now 17 and turn 18 in may next year. You havent taken away any of the excitement from me, because its was YOU make it. I cant fucking wait, its gonna be the TITS!

[psychocat]

Attitude is everything and to be honest I still find the Canna cup to be one of the best parties I have ever attended.

[horror business]

I've heard that Amsterdam's weed isn't that much better than the stuff in the states.

So, let me get this straight. You have to pay 200 dollars to have the option of paying more money to smoke samples? What is a sample? One hit?

[Frivolous248]

Wow, paying for samples is some bullshit to me. Especially since I would imagine its no more than a gram, and honestly we all know prices are fucking wack, it doesn't cost much to grow.

I can see how it may be overrated, and especially costly. I mean, the dam is a stoners dream so a lot of people probably love the cup since it means making mad money of dumb american tourists.

i didnt read any of that but i wanna go to amsterdam

[YahtzeeG]

thx for posting that kef. I was planning on going... but I have other places to go before Amsterdam... now Amsterdam is a bit lower on the list . Good info though Kef.

Question... is it true you start the volcano off at 4.5?

[GetDown]

mate i was planning on going next year, now am not sure, ill post a couple of questions later, too high to think clearly right now,,,,

[rottenPauL]

you just have to go right places, and not only amsterdam. If u go to ams, visit homegrown fantasies for some sweet sative (they have the BEST durban poison in ams). I found my best smokes in Leiden and not amsterdam. And believe me, you'll get FUCKED the very first day you'll set foot in holland, nomatter where you buy from

[Iggmasta]

interesting stuff i still plan on goin but i think i will go when there isnt a clusterfuck of tourists going to the cannabis cup sounds like too much money to spend
