On this episode of Nuggtalk, hosts Wally and Jimmy sit down with the team behind Best in Grass for a real conversation about cannabis competitions, product judging, brand discovery, and the future of New York’s legal cannabis market. We break down what goes into evaluating cannabis products, how competitions help consumers discover standout brands, and why honest feedback, education, and transparency matter in a growing legal market. The conversation explores what makes a product rise above the rest, how brands can build trust with consumers, and how categories like flower, vapes, edibles, concentrates, and more are judged through the lens of quality, consistency, experience, and consumer appeal. From cannabis culture and product education to brand storytelling, competition standards, and the evolution of New York’s legal cannabis scene, this episode gives viewers a closer look at the people helping shape how consumers connect with the products they choose. Whether you’re a cannabis consumer, budtender, dispensary operator, brand owner, or just curious about where legal cannabis is headed, this episode brings together insight, culture, and good vibes from inside Planet Nugg Cannabis Superstore in Farmingdale, NY. Real talk. Real judging. Real cannabis culture.
