Marijuana convention a bust
- Thread starter LeenieBean
- Start date
Here's my take. I thought that it was a cool event and I'm glad I came. my friend is taking about going back next year. I think there is some room for improvement. They could get more speakers, demos, and vendors. I got what I came for
One of the medical speakers, I can't remember his name talked about using a fresh juice extract with higher CBD content strains that has all of these amazing anti-inflammatory properties. I'd like to learn more about that.
We also got to pick simon's brain from ***. He was very nice and it was great to talk to someone with so many years of experience. I got the impression that he cares and takes his time before putting stuff out. We asked him about auto flowering and he said that there is potential,but that it needs a lot of work to create quality. He said that franco from greenhouse told him that they did it(autoflower). Simon asked Franco if it was good to which he replied:it's out there, it's what people want. I found that amusing

The expo was open to EVERYONE not just card holders! The whole venue is HANDICAP FRIENDLY.
It's the first expo that I have put together and know that there is room for improvement.
Next year will be better.

Thank you for taking the initiative and putting the expo together. I wasnt able to make it this year but I will show my support next year for sure.
A suggestion for next year, could you possibly make 2 judges passes?
One with the cruise and dinner, one without. Personally I would like to partake in all that the VIP Judges pass has to offer but I am not interested in the cruise or dinner.
I second that!
Correct the VIP pass gets you into the vapor lounge. It also gives you some samples from the cup entries.
only med patients were permitted in the vapour lounge, VIP or not

My mistake, from my messages with Marco he clearly stated that the VIP package would grant me into the vapor lounge. I guess things changed from the time he informed me to the actual event.

Well we had to make some changes due to the folks at the MTCC wanting to make sure that EVERYONE that was in the lounge had a medical need. Now all anyone had to do was show a perscription bottle , inhaler , or a copy of the MMAR paperwork filled out for those waiting for their MMAR card. Next year will be different as everything will be held on 1 level and easier for me to control.
