Light, Yield, and Quality: The Science Behind Cannabis Cultivation with Travis Higginbotham
Description
Growing cannabis is like navigating a path in many directions.
Are you cultivating for smokable flowers or extract?
How do you take a skill once passed down from person to person and translate that into high-end cultivation practices that can be standardized across employees or even scaled across companies?
These skills demand a unique blend of rigorous science and an intuitive "feel" that's hard to quantify.
This Week We Sit Down with Travis Higginbotham to Discuss the Following:
- Maximizing Yield Through Light Accumulation
- Why Harvest Timing Matters for Extracts vs. Flower
- Defining Quality in Cannabis Cultivation
- Challenges in Cannabis Cultivation
