The Classic is Colorado's only blind-judging competition featuring more than 80 of the best strains, concentrates and edibles in the state.  Twenty-five judges had three weeks to test entries in five categories: sativas, indicas, hybrids, concentrates and edibles.  Five judges scored each category, with the highest and lowest scores dropped for each entry.  With so much choice bud, there was truly little separating all of the submissions.  We encourage all of our readers to try as many of these strains, concentraes and edibles as possible and judge for themselves.
