Hempire Cup

The Hempire Cup is a tiered competition in which you can create your own strain to be used in game if you win. The top players of each Cup win a Common Gem which is used to move on to the next tier of the competition, other prizes include elusive Keys, Strain Icons, Epic Buds, and other prizes depending upon where one places. If you do not receive a common gem, you will remain in your current tier. Each higher tier has better prize options than the previous tier.

Level Required

Tiers
There are three ranks per Tier.
 * Bronze III - Bronze I
 * Silver III - Silver I
 * Gold III - Gold I
 * Platinum III - Platinum I
 * Diamond III - Diamond I
 * Legendray III - Legendray I

Advancing To Next Rank/Tier
In order to move forward in the competition you must collect Common Gems. Each Rank requires a different amount, following this format: Bronze Tier 3 - 1 gem, Bronze Tier 2 - 2 gems, Bronze Tier 1 - 3 gems. The same goes for Silver through Diamond.

The amount of gems you can win depends upon which position you wind up in after the race. You remain in the same Tier/Rank until you have collected sufficient gems for entry into the next Tier/Rank.

Cup Strain Buds
Each player receives 27 Strain Buds to use during the Hempire Cup. A player must breed these 27 Strain Buds with Epic Buds and Legendary Buds in the Lab to improve the quality of the Strain Bud.

Epic Buds
Epic Buds can be obtained by harvesting your plants or by purchasing them in the Global Market. Epic Buds have a Golden Leaf and cost more than traditional Buds. The more you improve the quality of your regular Buds, the more frequently Epics will drop during harvest, and the improved Epics will have a higher impact on on your Cup Strain Bud.

Legendary Buds
Legendary Buds can be won occasionally in either Town Hall Tasks, or Street Deals, as well as be purchased in the Legendary Greenhouse.

Using more than 5-6 Legendary Buds during the Cup tends to be pointless and a waste of diamonds. They are most useful once you've hit 2000 quality points. If you carefully select your Epic Buds, you can do very well. Keep in mind, the more you improve your regular Buds, the better their Epics will help in competition.
