Judges Competition

Get Certified as an Official Cannabis Judge

All judges are required to complete the qualifying questionnaire below which covers everything from basic plant knowledge to in-depth characteristics of cannabis. Applicants must “pass” the questionnaire with an 80%, in order to qualify to become a judge and be eligible for the FREE JUDGES KIT.

Judges must be age 19 or over, and have some recent experience (in the last 6 months) using whole plant cannabis. Some level of THC tolerance is preferred (we would like to prevent anyone from over-consuming or having a negative experience). Unless medically necessary, we ask that judges take a minimum 24 hour tolerance break prior to consuming any product from their judge kit.
