1993 High Times Cannabis Cup Winners
November 1993 – Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The budget was small this year, but there were some supplemental funds, provided by entry fees paid by 50 people who responded to a late-breaking ad in the HIGH TIMES Magazine.
Four seed companies entered: Dutch Passion, NHV, Nirvana and Sensi Seed Bank. Fifteen coffeeshops from Amsterdam and seven from outside also entered. Dronkers’ Sensi Seed Bank won, but Arjan’s Green House made a surprisingly strong debut.
There were some new powerful additions to the ceremony. A real silver Cannabis Cups forged by Robin Ludwig based on a sketch drawn by his daughter, an image now recognized throughout the world.
Celebrity judges included Gatewood Galbraith, Jack Herer, Paul Krassner and Sebastian Bach.
