KORcannabis Case Study: Design, Build and Optimize a Clean Green Certified Cultivation Facility

KORcannabis cultivation facility design, build, optimize case study

KORcannabis: Rooted in Science. Designed by Nature.

To help build a 100% organic cultivation process, KORcannabis needed a partner to help design, build and optimize their Clean Green Certified® cannabis facilities and agricultural practices. They contracted American Cannabis Company to provide these services. The following case study highlights the ways in which our efforts were able to elevate their results.

The Challenge:

To help KORcannabis enter the cannabis market and create the safest and most effective plant medicine for cannabis patients.

The Solution:

Farmaganix – a merger of living soil organic farming and pharmaceutical-grade extraction and formulation.  Together we outlined the business plan, financials, regulations and property options to create Farmaganix.

Within 12 months of closing on the property lease, construction began on a 50,000 square foot facility to host 72,000 square feet of canopy space.  We designed the facilities to include 16 flower rooms with four tiers high for flower and six tiers for vegetation.  The entire workspace is designed for high workflow efficiency to deliver over 1,000 pounds of dried A-grade flower per week.

The cultivation process is optimized with SoHum Living Soils®, leveraging microbial interactions to create organic nutrients for flowering cannabis plants.  The process is 100% organic for the duration of the vegetation and flowering cycle and only uses pure water.

The Result:

KORcannabis is a new vertically-integrated cannabis company dedicated to combining the strength of science with the art of cannabis. Rooted with a background in Pharma, their state-of- the-art cultivation facilities, processing labs and retail dispensaries are meticulously operated with quality craftsmanship and innovative technology to create an exceptional user experience.

“The entire team at ACC has been great to work with.  They have saved us lots of time and money and we’re so excited about the future…”  Benji Baker, Director of Cultivation, KORcannabis

How to Overcome Common Cannabis Grow Operation Challenges

commercial cannabis cultivation business

Commercial cannabis growers must navigate a market with increasing levels of competition and consumers who are becoming increasingly discriminating in their preferences for quality products. In addition, state and federal regulations for this industry continue to evolve at a rapid pace, forcing commercial growers to constantly adapt. It should come as no surprise that running a profitable commercial cannabis cultivation business has become challenging in this climate.

While the specific challenges impacting your business may vary depending on whether you grow indoors or outdoors and the state in which your operation is located, there are certain issues that all cannabis growers must contend with. These include:

  • High costs
  • Oversupply in the market
  • Difficulty in differentiating your products

Let’s examine the ways in which these issues are impacting commercial cannabis cultivation businesses and explore an effective solution that will help you rise above these challenges to differentiate your business as an industry leader moving forward.

High Costs

Having the right team is critical to the success of your cannabis cultivation business. You need a highly skilled and experienced team of growers to maximize your yields and ensure your cannabis products are extremely high quality. Cannabis cultivation is a very labor-intensive process, which can drive up the costs associated with a workforce possessing this kind of niche skillset.

For this reason, labor becomes one of the biggest areas where you have an opportunity to cut costs if you’re able to establish a more effective and efficient growing process. Your equipment is a sunk cost – you already own it, and you need to leverage your existing equipment as best you can. But if you’re able to simplify your growing process and lower your labor costs, you can potentially streamline your team and more effectively manage your overall operational costs.

Another item driving up your costs is the nutrients required to nurture your plants. Most growing processes require the use of a variety of supplemental nutrients to improve yield and maximize quality. These nutrients can be very expensive, especially since they must be purchased for each new grow cycle.

Living Soil Can Help You Reduce Costs

overcoming cannabis cultivation challengesOne way to lower both of these costs is to grow your cannabis plants in living soil. Living soil is highly nutrient rich, providing everything your plants need to thrive. This allows you to cut down on both your labor costs and the cost of additional nutrients required as part of the growing process:

  • Labor costs are reduced because less maintenance is required throughout the growing process. Your team doesn’t need to consistently add nutrients on a prescribed schedule to ensure the best quality products.
  • Since all the nutrients you need are contained within the soil, you eliminate the need to purchase supplemental materials to nurture your plants. This further lowers your overall costs.

 

Oversupply in the Market

As the cannabis industry continues to expand nationwide, we’re seeing a larger influx of growers entering the industry. There are more cultivation operations than ever before, and this is causing the marketplace to get flooded with product. As a result, cannabis prices are dropping to the point where it’s becoming harder to turn a profit.

On average, retail cannabis prices fell approximately 20% between July 2021 and July 2022, marking the largest decline in any 12-month period in the history of the cannabis industry. Keep in mind that this figure represents a national average. In mature cannabis markets such as Colorado, Oregon, Washington and California, the drop in prices was significantly greater. The oversupply issue represents one of the greatest challenges to the profitability and long term sustainability of most cannabis cultivation operations.

Since market conditions make it difficult for commercial growers to dictate the price they charge, they must become even more diligent at controlling their costs. As discussed in the first challenge, this involves utilizing the most effective soil and growing methods to limit labor and nutrient costs, while maximizing the quality and yield of the plants produced.

Difficulty Differentiating Products

Most cannabis cultivation operations have the ability to produce quality flower with interesting strains and terpene profiles. Unless you’re able to go above and beyond this standard, it’s going to be virtually impossible to differentiate from every other commercial grower competing against you in an oversaturated market.

In order to differentiate, you’ll need to provide something other growers don’t provide, such as:

  • Certifications
  • Organic product
  • Clean green growing process

These differentiators have become increasingly important because cannabis consumers are more educated than ever and as a result, their preferences are evolving. THC level is no longer the driving factor behind consumer purchasing preferences. Cannabis users are understanding the ways in which terpenes and cannabinoids work together to create an enhanced overall experience. They also understand that an organic, clean green growing process and product is healthier and delivers a better consumption experience.

In order to make your products stand out, you must now be able to produce flower that caters to the increasingly sophisticated preferences of consumers. Using a living soil product that is certified organic will deliver the quality consumers crave, and a clean green growing process will provide an additional differentiator to help your cannabis plants stand out against your competitors.

SoHum Living Soils® Delivers the Quality You Need to Overcome These Cultivation Challenges

SoHum Living Soils® is an award winning, triple certified living soil product that will help your grow operation stay on the forefront of the organic, clean green cannabis cultivation movement. It can be used for both indoor and outdoor cannabis cultivation applications. As a complete water-only living soil, it allows you to maximize your plant’s genetic potential while delivering the quality terpene profiles consumers demand.  If so desired, you can add a few organic amendments to set even higher milestones with cannabinoid and terpene profiles.

Very few living soil products possess all three certifications achieved by SoHum Living Soils®:

  • OMRI Listed® – This certification is required for a living soil product to be used in organic cultivation and production under the USDA National Organic Program.
  • Clean Green Certified® – This provides the equivalent organic certification for cannabis products as the USDA organic certification provides for organically grown produce.
  • OIM Registered – This certification ensures your materials are verified to comply with the California Fertilizing Materials Law and Regulations and the USDA National Organic Program Standards.

You’ll experience a variety of benefits when you use SoHum Living Soils® with your indoor or outdoor commercial cultivation operation:

  • Lower operational costs
  • Higher yield
  • Optimized flavor
  • Better product differentiation (organic product, high terpenes, optimized flavor, enhanced overall consumption experience)

When you combine SoHum Living Soils® with an automated watering system such as AutoPots, you can reduce these costs even more.

SoHum Living Soils® Receives OIM Certification of Registration

LAKEWOOD, CO / NEWMEDIAWIRE / December 13, 2022 American Cannabis Company, Inc. (OTCQB: AMMJ) (“ACC” or “Company”), a business-to-business cannabis consulting solutions provider and licensed owner operator, is pleased to announce that our subsidiary company SoHum Living Soils® has received Organic Input Material (OIM) certification from the California Department of Food and Agriculture.

“We’re extremely excited about receiving this certification. SoHum Living Soils® is dedicated to clean green organic cultivation, and compliance with California’s OIM Program is another recognition that SoHum products deliver the finest quality organic materials available,” said Ellis Smith, chairman and founder of American Cannabis Company.

The Organic Input Material (OIM) Program registers fertilizing materials to be used in organic crop and food production. OIM registered products must be verified to comply with the California Fertilizing Materials Law and Regulations and USDA National Organic Program Standards.

FMIP products undergo routine sampling and inspections to ensure these standards are maintained over time.

SoHum Living Soils® now has triple certification. In 2021, they received Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) and Clean Green Certification. OMRI is an international nonprofit organization that reviews and approves products for use in organic production and processing. The Clean Green Certification Program provides a process to hold cannabis products to the same high standards associated with organic growing that are applied to produce. Very few soil products have all three certifications.

Cannabis Remains an Illegal Schedule 1 Drug Under Federal Law

Thirty-five states, including Colorado, the District of Columbia and four U.S. Territories currently have laws broadly legalizing cannabis in some form for either medicinal and/or recreational use governed by state specific laws and regulations. Although legalized in some states, cannabis is a “Schedule 1” drug under the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 811) (“CSA”) and is illegal under federal law. Cannabis and its derivatives are viewed as being highly addictive and having no medical value. The United States Drug Enforcement Agency enforces the Controlled Substances Act, and persons violating it are subject to federal criminal prosecution.

As a result of the November 2020 federal elections, and the election of Joseph R. Biden as president, it is expected that the federal government will move to amend parts of the CSA and de-schedule cannabis as a Schedule 1 drug.

In late January, 2021, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said lawmakers are in the process of merging various cannabis bills, including his own legalization legislation. He is working to enact reform in this Congressional session. This would include the Marijuana Freedom and Opportunity Act, that would federally de-schedule cannabis, reinvest tax revenue into communities most affected by the drug war, and fund efforts to expunge prior cannabis records. It is likely that the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement (MORE) Act would be incorporated.

Other federal legislation under review for possible submission includes the SAFE Banking Act (or Secure and Fair Enforcement Act), a bill that would allow cannabis companies to access the federally-insured banking system and capital markets without the risk of federal enforcement action, and the Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Through Entrusting States Act (or STATES Act), a bill that seeks protections for businesses and individuals in states that have legalized and comply with state laws).

Notably with respect to our business, on November 1, 2019, Colorado Bill HB-19-1090, was passed and made effective. This law allows publicly traded corporations to apply for and qualify for the ownership of Colorado cannabis licenses. Other states that have legalized cannabis for recreational and/or medicinal use restrict public companies from owning interests in state cannabis licenses altogether, or have enacted regulations which make it difficult for corporations to comply with application requirements, including all shareholders submitting to and passing background checks.

On September 18, 2020, Colorado’s Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED), approved the Company’s application for suitability, establishing the Company as one of the few publicly traded companies authorized to acquire and operate various cannabis licenses throughout Colorado, in both the recreational and medical markets.

How to Protect Your Cannabis Business Against a Recession

making your cannabis business recession proof

The United States is currently dealing with uncertain financial times. Inflation is at its highest in decades, interest rates have been rapidly rising, supply chain issues stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic are still impacting many industries, and the war in Ukraine is having a financial ripple effect throughout the world. With all these factors at play, it should come as no surprise that many leading economists have predicted a recession will hit the US economy by the end of 2022 or early 2023.

While we don’t know for certain whether a recession is on the horizon, it’s important to have a plan in place in the event that one does occur. There are a variety of steps you can take to help your business stay profitable during a recession. With a little proactive planning, you can significantly increase your chances of successfully navigating the challenging financial climate that may potentially lie ahead.

Is the Cannabis Industry Recession-Proof?

tips for making your cannabis business recession proofThe cannabis industry is still relatively young and wasn’t around during the last major recession in 2008, so there isn’t any historical data to help us predict exactly how an upcoming recession may impact the industry. Some experts seem to feel that the industry is relatively recession-proof, while others fear that it may be hit hard.

Experts that argue the cannabis industry is relatively recession-proof look to the alcohol industry as a guide for how cannabis will perform. Alcohol sales held relatively consistent during the 2008 recession and over the long term, sales increased. This is likely due to the fact that many individuals view alcohol as something that provides relaxation and stress relief, making it an expense worth keeping in their budget when money is tight. Cannabis is a similar mechanism for relaxation and stress relief, so many experts believe it will fare similarly to alcohol if a recession hits.

Other experts fear a recession will have a greater impact on the cannabis industry, citing a variety of factors to support their belief:

  • Prices are rising consistently
  • Cannabis operations are expensive to run
  • The industry is over-regulated to the point where it can be stifling to businesses
  • Business deductions are challenging due to IRS laws governing the cannabis industry
  • Lack of effective federal cannabis reform and widespread legalization weakens the industry as a whole

However, the experts who think the cannabis industry may be hit hard by recession also indicate that the impact may vary by state. States with emerging cannabis markets such as New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Illinois and Florida may fare better due to higher wholesale prices and less competition in their market. On the other hand, states with more mature cannabis markets such as Colorado, Washington, Oregon and California may be more severely impacted since businesses in these regions already deal with issues associated with declining wholesale prices, overproduction of many products, and a saturated market that creates fierce competition for customers.

6 Steps to Make Your Cannabis Business Recession-Proof

The following tips provide a good starting point to help protect your cannabis business in the event that a recession hits in the next few months. Keep in mind that the specific steps you’ll need to take will depend on the unique factors impacting the industry in your area.

Streamline Your Business

A positive cash flow is critical to the success of any cannabis business. Because cannabis is still a relatively new and emerging industry, many businesses have been able to spend freely to capitalize on expansion opportunities. While this free spending may help your business grow during a strong economy, it can create cash flow issues during a recession.

The best way to avoid this problem is to streamline your business. Look closely at all your expenses. Prioritize those which are critical to the growth and success of your business. Cut out expenses which may be deemed less necessary. Do the same with every aspect of your operations. Are there areas you can eliminate and still maintain your profitability? If so, you may want to cut out aspects of your business which aren’t turning a profit and focus all of your resources on those areas which generate the most revenue.

Re-Evaluate Your Vendor Contracts

While it may be possible to weather vendor contracts with unfavorable terms during a strong economy, these contracts can become financially crippling during a recession. Now is the time to examine all of your vendor contracts to identify any that have unfavorable terms for your business.

If it’s possible to terminate these agreements, you should put in your termination notice now and shop for a better contract with a different vendor. If you’re unable to get out of a bad contract, reach out to the vendor and see if you can renegotiate some of the terms which may place a financial strain on your business if a recession hits.

Review Your Inventory Management

Reigning in your inventory costs can provide significant savings and help you remain profitable during a recession – as long as you’re not sacrificing the quality of your product mix in the process. Conduct a thorough review of your inventory management to:

  • Identify items which you’re ordering in too large a quantity
  • Determine products which you may be able to source at a better price
  • Re-evaluate your inventory par levels to make sure you can stay on top of ordering and shop for the best deals

Revisit Your Product Mix

evaluate your cannabis product mix to make your dispensary recession proofDuring a recession, it’s crucial that you offer the right products for your customer base. For example, a cannabis business in an affluent area may be able to maintain a higher sales volume of premium cannabis products during a recession. These customers will still have money to spend on cannabis and value quality over cost. In these situations, offering premium clean green cannabis products can differentiate you from your competitors and gain a larger share of this quality-oriented customer base.

However, cannabis businesses with a lower socio-economic demographic may find that focusing on lower and mid-tier products will appeal more to a price-conscious customer base that has been hit hard by the recession and has less money to spend on cannabis.

You should also identify which products don’t perform well and phase these out of your product mix. Cutting back your offerings and focusing only on the products which perform well can help you stay lean and profitable during a recession.

Maintain the Loyalty of Your Existing Customer Base

Maintaining a loyal customer base is critical during a recession. These customers provide an easy opportunity to increase sales without heavily investing in efforts focused on bringing in new business. During tough economic times, customers are more likely to shop around to find the business offering them the best deal. Therefore, you need to make your existing customers know how much you value them.

There are several ways to accomplish this:

  • Rewards programs – Offering a rewards program is a great way to cultivate repeat business. If customers know their loyalty will be rewarded with a free or discounted item after a certain number of visits, they are more likely to keep coming back.
  • Specials – Everyone loves a deal. Consider offering daily, weekly or monthly specials for some of your most popular products, giving your customer base an incentive to keep purchasing these items from your store.
  • Customer service – Providing excellent customer service is one of the easiest ways to differentiate your business from your competitors and show your customers that you truly care about them. Identify the needs of your customer base, and go above and beyond to meet these needs. Keep your customers happy and they will keep coming back to you.

Invest in Marketing

Many businesses will look for opportunities to reduce their costs during a recession. While this is sound thinking in general, it’s important to be critical of the areas where you reduce your budget. Often, marketing budgets are one of the first places businesses will make cuts during a recession. However, this is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.

A recession is the time where your business needs effective marketing the most. Customers are looking to make changes in their buying decisions in order to better optimize their limited funds. Make sure your business is top of mind at a time when customer loyalty tends to wane. Stepping up your marketing efforts during a recession will help potential customers become aware of your offerings and let them know what differentiates you from your competitors. This can help you attract new customers at a time when your competitors are losing them.

Cannabis Remains an Illegal Schedule 1 Drug Under Federal Law

Thirty-five states, including Colorado, the District of Columbia and four U.S. Territories currently have laws broadly legalizing cannabis in some form for either medicinal and/or recreational use governed by state specific laws and regulations. Although legalized in some states, cannabis is a “Schedule 1” drug under the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 811) (“CSA”) and is illegal under federal law. Cannabis and its derivatives are viewed as being highly addictive and having no medical value. The United States Drug Enforcement Agency enforces the Controlled Substances Act, and persons violating it are subject to federal criminal prosecution.

As a result of the November 2020 federal elections, and the election of Joseph R. Biden as president, it is expected that the federal government will move to amend parts of the CSA and de-schedule cannabis as a Schedule 1 drug.

In late January, 2021, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said lawmakers are in the process of merging various cannabis bills, including his own legalization legislation. He is working to enact reform in this Congressional session. This would include the Marijuana Freedom and Opportunity Act, that would federally de-schedule cannabis, reinvest tax revenue into communities most affected by the drug war, and fund efforts to expunge prior cannabis records. It is likely that the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement (MORE) Act would be incorporated.

Other federal legislation under review for possible submission includes the SAFE Banking Act (or Secure and Fair Enforcement Act), a bill that would allow cannabis companies to access the federally-insured banking system and capital markets without the risk of federal enforcement action, and the Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Through Entrusting States Act (or STATES Act), a bill that seeks protections for businesses and individuals in states that have legalized and comply with state laws).

Notably with respect to our business, on November 1, 2019, Colorado Bill HB-19-1090, was passed and made effective. This law allows publicly traded corporations to apply for and qualify for the ownership of Colorado cannabis licenses. Other states that have legalized cannabis for recreational and/or medicinal use restrict public companies from owning interests in state cannabis licenses altogether, or have enacted regulations which make it difficult for corporations to comply with application requirements, including all shareholders submitting to and passing background checks.

On September 18, 2020, Colorado’s Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED), approved the Company’s application for suitability, establishing the Company as one of the few publicly traded companies authorized to acquire and operate various cannabis licenses throughout Colorado, in both the recreational and medical markets.

American Cannabis Company, Inc. Provides Overall Update on Company Progress and Plans for 2022

American Cannabis Company, Inc., a business-to-business cannabis consulting solutions provider and licensed owner operator, is pleased to provide an overall update on Company progress and its plans for 2022.

The Company looks forward to a busy year in 2022 across all brands within its portfolio. Since its inception in 2013, much of ACC’s success was derived upon being a provider of end-to-end consulting services. The Company has spent considerable time aligning itself with strategies for long-term scalability and sustainability. The acquisition of Naturaleaf in April of last year gave ACC its first pivot point into a new core focus of overall business, providing the catalyst needed to connect its overall brand identity with clean green and organically based cannabis cultivation. Moving forward, the Company plans to focus on four primary areas of business that will further promote its clean green cannabis cultivation mission: operational management consulting, SoHum Living Soils®, Naturaleaf cultivation and dispensaries, and brand expansion by means of strategic mergers and acquisitions.

Ellis Smith, Co-Founder and the new CEO of American Cannabis Company, Inc. said: “This is going to be a very exciting year for the Company. We are now in a position to deploy our ‘cage-free cannabis’ products and services across all brands under the parent company umbrella. With this ability to now showcase our passion and expertise for a consistent high quality cannabis experience, ACC will continue to implement means to further validate our mission. We will continue to show the market how our products stand apart from other commercially manufactured products.”

In late 2021, the Company received an official certification from the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) for its product, SoHum Living Soils®. This product is a fully amended, pH-buffered growing medium that will continue to disrupt the agricultural markets as a ‘Just Add Water’ super soil, acting to eliminate the human error element from cannabis and non-cannabis crop cultivation. SoHum Living Soils® was created to combat complex cannabis cultivation strategies as it is a complete living soil that optimizes a plant’s genetic potential. Designed to be ready to use, SoHum Living Soils® is a complete and diverse solution for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, combining the best of modern science and agriculture with traditional expertise and farming practices. With this recent approval from OMRI, SoHum Living Soils® is officially OMRI Listed® and appears on the OMRI Products Lists©.

In addition to this prominent certification, The Company recently secured Clean Green Certification for SoHum Living Soils® as well as for all products grown and manufactured under the Naturaleaf cultivation facility. To become Clean Green Certified® in both areas means that the flower product and biproduct, the facility, the cultivating processes, and input materials uphold strict standards that are consistently maintained under organically based regulations. Retail bags of SoHum Living Soils® are now carried in over one hundred and fifty (150+) retail stores and is a strategic growing component for many commercial cannabis cultivators.  SoHum’s OMRI Listed® and Clean Green dual certification gives cultivators confidence in using this living soil solution as part of their organic growing process.

“We are at a very pivotal point in our Company. After having spent many years developing and refining our brand strategy, all brands under the American Cannabis Company name are now in alignment with the core mission to elevate the consumer experience by commiting to wellness, quality products and organically based practices” said Tyler Schloesser, Chief Operating Officer of American Cannabis Company, Inc. Mr. Schloesser continued: “We have the ability to offer Clean Green Certified® products that are grown using OMRI Listed® and Clean Green Certified® inputs, and this certainly differentiates us in the market.”

Through its plant-touching operation, Naturaleaf, the Company is actively selling Clean Green Certified® flower to medical patients through its three (3) retail channels within the city of Colorado Springs. The mission of the Company continues as it has worked with the Naturaleaf team to now offer Clean Green Certified® cannabis clones to the market along with an entire line of wholesale products including organically based flower, trim, and clone stock. Additionally, ACC has recently partnered with the official Bubba Kush brand to be the provider of clean green quality cannabis to the Colorado market. This opportunity gives the Company the ability to maximize the genetic potential of each licensed strain and allows for ACC and Naturaleaf to offer top-tier, organically based products to the conscious cannabis consumer.

On the consulting side of the Company, ACC is implementing its core mission and values across all projects related to existing clients. Currently, the Company is working on several large-scale cultivation operational deployment and management activities for clients in both Michigan and Arizona. When completed, these operations will be managed by ACC and set to produce quality cannabis that is cultivated using practices that are consistent, replicable, and clean.

Ellis Smith commented: “We are excited to be able to adapt and apply our processes, methodologies, and technological resources to our current client projects as well as all future clients and partners that seek to up-level the way in which cannabis is produced in their respective region(s) of the world. Our brand identity stands upon quality, and with that being said, I think it’s important to convey this steadfast approach that our team holds to redefine society’s relationship with cannabis through responsible stewardship. We are approaching 2022 with a clear focus, and we will continue to expand our footprint and scale all of our brands with a push toward clean green, organically based practices.”

Important Elements to Consider for Cultivation Task Management

cannabis cultivation task management

Cultivation task management is an important way to refine your processes in order to get the most out of your grow operation. You need to gain data that will help you improve your process over time from yield to yield. Cultivation task management provides learning opportunities for your team to ensure they gain the knowledge and insights to better themselves and to improve their processes.

At its core, cultivation task management is about education – the value of this process is to collect the data that will help you get better at what you’re doing to ensure you’re growing the best cannabis plants possible. Without this data, it’s very hard to measure the success of your operation. Acquiring this data from your cultivation task management efforts allows you to measure and quantify your results to guide your decision making and constantly improve your operations.

There are several elements you must consider when setting up your cultivation task management process. By addressing the following items, you can set your team up for success and gain the valuable insights necessary to improve your grow operation over time.

Designate a Lead/Point Person to Manage the Process

Cannabis Cultivation Task Management

While there will be multiple team members involved in your cultivation task management efforts, it’s crucial to designate one lead person to manage the entire process. This person will be in charge of holding all other team members accountable for their role and ensuring that day to day, all tasks are getting accomplished to move the cultivation process forward.

In order to set your cultivation task management process up for success, your lead person must possess the following attributes:

  • Computer savvy
  • Understands how to read analytics data
  • Has the ability to effectively manage people
  • Is a good trainer (your lead person must relate the data to the rest of the team and instruct them on how to make improvements to your process)

Write Down Your SOPs

It’s important to document the process. This ensures all team members understand how cultivation task management works and what needs to be done during each stage.

Over time, these standard operating procedures (SOPs) may need to be adjusted as your process evolves. The goal is to constantly improve and refine your process to achieve better results with each grow. Writing down your SOPs not only documents your process to ensure it’s being followed correctly, but it also helps you identify steps which may need to be refined over time.

Integrate and Implement Your SOPs

Once you’ve identified and documented your SOPs, it’s time to implement them with your cultivation task management efforts. The key to implementing your SOPs is proper training. You’ll need to define every team member’s role and responsibility, and train them on what every task they’re responsible for entails.

This training should be a one-on-one process with each employee. This will allow you make sure each person understands the process and how everything is expected to be done. By conducting your training in a one-on-one format, you’ll provide greater accountability and get everyone up to speed faster.

Choose a Tracking Mechanism

Cannabis Cultivation Task Management Tracking

You need to have some sort of structure to track the entire growing process. This will let you know what is being done on a daily basis and how these tasks are being accomplished. There are several different tools you can use to track the process:

  • Google calendar
  • Excel spreadsheet
  • Artemis
  • Tryn

It doesn’t matter which of these systems you use. Choose the tool that you are most comfortable with and which makes the most sense for your workflow. The important thing is that you’re using something to track the elements of the cultivation process.

The software used in tracking your process will document how long it takes for team members to perform each task. This lets you know that the proper amount of time has been dedicated to each task in the cultivation management process. If you’re using a spreadsheet or Google calendar instead of one of the software tools listed above, you’ll need to have your team enter detailed notes regarding what was completed each day and what still needs to be done.

Why You Need a Cannabis Business Consultant

The cannabis industry continues to grow rapidly, with new states legalizing recreational and medical marijuana each year. While there are more opportunities to open a cannabis business than ever before, there are many legal hurdles to navigate, and competition is fierce within every sector of the industry. While it is possible to run a successful operation by going it alone, it is often beneficial to work with an experienced cannabis consulting company who can guide you through many of the difficult business decisions that lie ahead.

Whether you’re starting a new cannabis operation or a grizzled veteran who has been in the industry for years, there are numerous pitfalls that can potentially derail your business. Working with a cannabis consulting company can help you avoid these pitfalls while helping you make your operations more efficient. When you choose the right consulting professionals, you can set your business up for success for years to come.

Discover 6 important benefits you’ll experience when you work with a cannabis consulting company.

1.    Remain Compliant with the Latest Cannabis Laws in Your State

6 Benefits of Working with a Cannabis Consulting Company

Cannabis laws are constantly evolving, making it difficult to remain compliant. There are laws governing every aspect of the industry. Whether you’re applying for a cannabis license, setting up a retail store, opening a commercial grow facility, marketing your business, or packaging and storing cannabis products, there are regulations in place that must be adhered to. Failure to remain compliant with the latest laws and policies can result in costly fines and other consequences which may be devastating to your business.

An experienced cannabis consultant can help you navigate these changing laws. Your consultant will stay on top of the latest federal, state and local laws so that you can focus your energy on other aspects of running your business. When new regulations are being proposed, you’ll know ahead of time. This knowledge allows you to be proactive and prepare well in advance of the new laws going into effect rather than being reactive and having to scramble at the last minute to ensure you remain compliant.

2.    Strengthen Your Candidacy for Licensure

There is often a tremendous amount of competition for a limited number of cannabis licenses when states launch medical and recreational programs. There are strict requirements that must be followed at every stage of the application process, and you must document just about every aspect of your proposed business. You may be asked to submit information regarding:

  • Business plans
  • Standard operating procedures
  • Sources of funding
  • A physical location for your business

To make the process more challenging, the licensure requirements vary from state to state. An experienced cannabis consulting company will know the specific licensing requirements associated with your application and be able to guide you through the entire process. This will significantly increase your likelihood of having your application approved.

3.    Set Your New Business Up for Success

Setting up a new business is always a complicated process, but it is particularly challenging in the cannabis industry. There are many aspects of the process that must be evaluated, and the complex regulations governing the industry must be adhered to at all times. An experienced cannabis consultant can help you grapple with important issues such as:

  • Establishing your brand messaging
  • Choosing the location for your new business
  • Determining the right size for your retail store or grow facility
  • Designing the layout of your store and choosing an aesthetic that aligns with your brand
  • Choosing the right suite of cannabis technology to manage your operations and provide all documentation required by state regulations
  • Making sure you have proper insurance coverage
  • Establishing a business model that is easily scalable as you grow
  • Navigating the complex tax laws that apply to cannabis businesses
  • Hiring the right members for your executive team
  • Choosing the proper channels to market your new business

The consequences for making the wrong decisions on many of these matters can be devastating for your business. A cannabis consultant will take the time to understand your business goals in order to guide you through the decision-making process. This will help set your new business up for sustained success.

4.    Speed Up Your Learning Curve

The tremendous growth potential associated with the cannabis industry has attracted a lot of bright and talented business professionals from other industries who are looking to shift gears in their career. While many of these individuals have experienced a great deal of success in their previous ventures, they often find that starting a cannabis business is a completely different beast. There is a tremendous amount to learn about the industry.

There are many technical aspects associated with the products offered by a cannabis business. In order to provide the highest quality products and have the ability to educate your customers on their options, you will need to navigate a steep learning curve. A cannabis consultant has a deep knowledge of all aspects of the industry and can help you get up to speed much quicker than is possible if you have to figure everything out on your own.

5.    Expand Your Network and Leverage Important Cannabis Industry Connections

Whether you’re starting a new cannabis business or trying to expand an existing company into different areas of the industry, you’ll need the assistance of others to achieve your goals. Your cannabis consultant will have wide range of industry connections that you can leverage based on your specific needs.

For example, if you run a grow operation that has developed a new high-end strain, will you know which dispensaries have the customer base looking for the quality you provide? If you place this strain in dispensaries with more budget-conscious consumers, it may not be the right fit. Your cannabis consultant can connect you with the right retail partners for your new strain.

If you run a retail store, you will need to establish relationships with a variety of wholesale partners. How will you know which wholesalers to do business with? Your cannabis consultant to can put you in touch with the right providers to deliver the products you need while helping you get the best possible deal.

6.    Identify Emerging Opportunities to Pursue

The cannabis industry is constantly evolving. State regulations are always changing, new technologies are being implemented, new products are being developed, and consumer trends change over time. It can be both challenging and time-consuming to stay on top of these developments as they arise.

Your cannabis consulting company will have their finger on the pulse of the industry. They are always monitoring new products, technology and trends. They also stay current on the latest laws and regulations. This knowledge is invaluable as you try to evaluate new potential opportunities that will help your business grow.
