A
pioneer organic green grower and one of the original founders of the "Food for
the Hood" program at Crenshaw High School, Dr. Ingleweed began growing cannabis
in 1994 while attending college at the University of California, Berkeley. His
famed Doesha Cup was one of the first gatherings to pave the way for celebratory
events in the medical marijuana community at the onset of the legalization
movement in Los Angeles. With the legal progress made over the past several
years, Dr. Ingleweed's Doesha Cup has become a longtime cult favorite.
"The
mainstreaming of medical marijuana is finally here," asserts Dr. Ingleweed. "We
are no longer perceived as drug users and abusers. Though we still have an
uphill battle, more and more states are legalizing it. Our talent line up this
year is as diverse as the world of smokers out there. The Doesha Cup 2013 is
gonna take it higher and higher!"
The
Doesha Cup's mission is to cultivate and strengthen the medical marijuana
movement by exposing patients to new products while cultivating businesses and
budding enterprises who specialize in medical marijuana ethics, such as
dispensaries and vendors. The actual competition features 12 to 15 different
strains tested by 200 judges competing for the prime position as the reigning
"Doesha Cup Champion." Prizes and incentives range upwards to $1500 in cash,
concessions and ultimate bragging rights.
