CONGRATULATIONS TO THE 2016 WINNERS

Zkittlez
Zkittlez is an indica-dominant mix of Grape Ape and Grapefruit that is crossed with another undisclosed strain to produce this candy-flavored cannabis bred by 3rd Gen Family and Terp Hogz. This award-winning combination took 1st Place Indica at the 2015 Cannabis Cups in San Francisco and in Michigan. The chunky colas explode in a spectrum of light green hues and emit a sweet, tropical blend of fruit flavors. The effects of Zkittlez are surprisingly uplifting for an indica, leaving consumers focused, alert, and happy while relaxing the body to help unwind any time of day. – Courtesy of Leafly

Purple Crack
There are at least two variations of the strain Purple Crack. One, bred by Cali Connection, claims to be Green Crack genetics crossed with a Blackwater male. The other is bred by the Qola Family using Juicy Fruit in combination with Green Crack. Despite the mix in genetics, both express themselves as sativa-dominant hybrids that deliver a smooth burst of energy with an elevated mood. Purple Crack is a delightful way to stimulate creativity with effects that are presented with a mix of flavors ranging from floral earthy notes of pine to fresh citrus fruit. – Courtesy of Leafly

Ringo's Gift
Ringo’s Gift is a high-CBD strain that crosses Harle-Tsu and ACDC. It is named for the late Lawrence Ringo, a cannabis activist and CBD pioneer. Ringo’s Gift comes in several different phenotypes and ratios. The first of which is a “one-for-one” strain, meaning it has an equal ratio of CBD to THC, but Ringo’s Gift has seen ratios as steep at 24:1 CBD/THC. This strain has become a favorite in the cannabis clubs of Barcelona, providing a mellow mix of cerebral activity and soothing, full-body relaxation without the “couch lock” effect. – Courtesy of Leafly

CONGRATULATIONS DANIEL!!!
2016 Ganjier Award Recipient
Why Daniel Montero?
This year, the award went to celebrate someone who represents the hard-working, dedicated entrepreneur who’s suffered the ups and downs of the industry but continues to rise to the challenge. The winner represents the hustler who has been raising his game and meeting the challenges of riding the re-integration of cannabis in our society. This year’s Ganjier Award winner, Daniel Montero, is a true example of this. Even after a near-fatal incident, within a couple weeks he was back to moving his business forward with the same professionalism and positivity. His work ethic, drive and dedication to the industry made him a shoe-in.
In part, we wanted to also acknowledge all the hustlers who are meeting the challenges of the changes to our industry. The community at large has taken great strides in coming into compliance and building their futures.

Behind the scenes, making it happen
We wanted to present an award to unsung heroes that may not always get the outright recognition for their contributions to the industry. These are people who do not crave the spotlight but contribute immensely to the success of their organizations in positive ways.
CONGRATULATIONS PEDRO!!!
2016 Golden Shocka Award Recipient
Why William Pedro?
The first Golden Shocka Award is to someone who epitomizes its spirit and this winner sets the bar very high. We selected William Pedro of Wonderland Nursery for his rock-like presence and quiet dedication to performing on the job and leading with confidence and vision.
