Competition Information

---

The competition portion of this event is focused around the best of the best on the east coast.

We don't care if you are growing 1 plant in your closet or 10,000 in a warehouse. If you got the heat then bring it. Our judges will put those claims to the test and only true champions will rise to the top and claim gold. 

There are no 2nd and 3rd places here. 

You either win or you go home and strategize for how you'll win next year.

The Wandering Hashishian has no access to the list of competitor names and entry numbers until the week before the event. This is all managed 3rd party to preserve the competition.

Judging is to be done via an electronic form that is privately shared to only the judges. No one else will have access. There is 0 chance of interception or data manipulation by any party.

While judging is live, there will be a website available to competitors only.

This website will allow them to see all of the information about each judge's submission, including notes scores and photos (all of which will be required). 

This will include a "scoreboard" that actively shows the top 5 for each category

Once submitted, the data  is held 3rd party until July 15th.

July 15th will be the first day The Wandering Hashishian sees which entry number belongs to which competitor.

July 28th we announce the winners at the event. 

If a winner cannot make the event they need to reach out beforehand to make arrangements.
