01Beginnings
The only source we have is a forum thread from the Growers Network, titled as the East Coast Cannabis Cup in South Africa.1
It lists Quickbuyngrow among the organisers, which is how this page ties the event to Quick Buy n Grow.1
The sources do not say how the idea started, who first dreamed it up, or whether any earlier editions came before the 2022 one. The thread does not use the name Green Cup & Expo either, so that alias is unconfirmed here.
02The story
The event ran from 29 April to 1 May 2022.1
The setting was Wacky Woods Resort, on the Gamtoos River in the Eastern Cape.1
Entries were sorted into five categories: Breeders, Outdoor, Indoor, Extracts and Edibles.1
The thread advertises live judging, but it names no winners.1 The sources do not say who won, how many entries came in, or how the judging was scored.
03Culture
Six organisers are listed: Quickbuyngrow, Simon Strainhunter, The Cannabis Promoter, Ezee Media, The Stoned Trooper and Andrew John Bulwalda.1
The sources do not say anything about the crowd, the atmosphere, the expo side of the event, or what the community made of it.
04Now
The sources do not say whether the cup is still running. The only edition we can point to is the one in April and May 2022.1
05Future
The sources do not mention any plans for later editions, new dates or a new venue.
If you know of newer announcements or results from this cup, they would be a welcome addition to this page.
