WHY GROW ORGANIC?
Our grow is set up in a very unique way compared to almost any other commercial grower. We believe in growing the natural way, by using living soil as a medium to house our plants and organic tea blends to feed them. These are key components to developing such fresh, terpene-rich profiles in our flower.
“Sweet” Soil - Our Living Soil
Growing cannabis in actual “living soil” has become a dying art but it is by far the most natural way to produce the cleanest cannabis. When working with any living organism there are always challenges, like how soil can be messier compared to other grow mediums, but the outcome is what we are in the game for. Like a fine wine, soil that is harvested, composted and fed correctly will only get better with age. As we continue to use our “Sweet Soil” over time, the terpene profiles, freshness and even THC content will continue to trend in the right direction creating the cleanest cannabis on the market.

In order to ensure that microbial life is thriving in our soil we add a "Beneficial Microbial Tea" at the beginning of the flower cycle for each of our plants.
Microbial life in our soil is paramount to support a healthy ecosystem and plant. Inputs such as kelp, molasses, alfalfa meal, worm castings, compost and bokashi are carefully brewed for 24-28 hours before delivering the Tea to our plants.

When needed, we use an organic bio-active liquid fertilizer made from fish, shrimp and crab caught in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Washington and Oregon. The fertilizer goes through cold-process enzymatic digestion to ensure quality and stabilization.
The Slow Cure
After our flower is harvested, we use a long, somewhat colder, and slightly more humid cure process to let the terpene profile of each strain shine through. This is an overlooked, yet essential step in the ART of creating a final product that smokes smooth as well as tastes and smells great.
