Organic Sour Diesel in living soil, hand watered, indoors under HPS.
All grown in Coco, fed with Athena through Netafim, indoors under LEDs.
IF YOUR ROOM IS UNDERPERFORMING…I CAN TELL YOU WHY!
Commercial/hobby cannabis cultivation and solventless extraction consulting.
I walk the room, find out what is actually wrong, and fix it quickly and efficiently.

Sound familiar
If you have said any of these out loud, we should talk now, before it’s too late…
- “My yields dropped and I don’t know why. Nothing changed.”
- “Room 3 always yields less than Room 1. Same lights, same feed, same genetics.”
- “My head grower just gave notice and the whole process lives in his head.”
- “I think I might have a disease or a virus. My plants aren’t growing normally and I don’t know what’s wrong.”
- “Powdery mildew shows up in weeks 5 and 6 in the same two rooms. I’ve tried everything.”
- “My humidity spikes as soon as the lights go off and I can’t control it. I don’t know what to do.”
- “We’re not getting the same output we expected since we switched to LEDs and we can’t figure out why.”
- “We’re getting bud rot and losing too much. We need to figure out why.”
- “The flower smelled incredible in the room and by the time it’s in a jar it smells like nothing.”
- “My tops are beautiful, but everything below is larf.”
- “My wash yields dropped from 4.5% to 3.5% and nothing changed on our end.”
- “My rosin comes out with a dark residue on the banger.”
- “The crystals looked so big and shiny I thought for sure it would wash. It came back at 1%. What should I do?”
- “I need to know how to scale properly. I can’t figure it out.”
What I actually do
Diagnose what’s wrong, then tell you how to fix it.
You tell me what’s going on. I ask a lot of questions, you answer them, and I tell you how to fix it. If I can’t tell from the phone, from pictures or from video — or if it’s complicated and nobody knows the cause — I come to you, walk the rooms and find the exact cause. Environment, feed, genetics, bugs, mold, humidity, temperature, airflow, workflow, staff. Whatever it is, I find it and give you a precise plan to correct it.
If the facility design itself is the problem, that is another thing I am fast at — naming the exact cause and the fix, which is usually a change of equipment, placement, direction, height or speed, filters, or cleaning.
Hop latent viroid
If your best cut stopped being your best cut, you may not have a genetics problem. You may have a disease or a virus problem.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and with hop latent viroid prevention is the whole game. A real IPM program, and proper cleaning and handling of every tool and every device that touches a mother plant or a clone. First and most important: don’t bring it in in the first place. Learn how to send plants in for testing and you avoid a serious long-term problem before it starts.
It may not kill the plant, but it will make them smaller, looser, less aromatic, less frosty, and worse in a dozen other ways. And it moves through a mother room on scissors and hands long before anyone sees a symptom. Most operations are not testing for it, and the ones that are often don’t know what to do with a positive.
I have dealt with HLVd directly and been affected by it directly. I can tell you what it looks like early, how to sample and test mother stock, how to stop cross-contaminating between rooms, and how to decide honestly between test-and-remove and starting over — including what each one really costs you in time and in lost cycles.
Organic, living soil & Korean Natural Farming
I currently run organic and synthetic in different rooms, and I can tell you the pros and cons of each.
Korean Natural Farming
Homemade ferments produced organically by us, tested in real commercial rooms, proven time after time. I build the input program and train your crew to make it and to use it.
No-till, beds and containers
No-till beds and containers, cover cropping, and soil biology that holds up over multiple indoor runs. Composting, extracts and teas, and soil testing, analysis and re-amending.
Conventional synthetics
Equally fluent in synthetic production. I run it right now in some rooms, and I can help you get more flavour and more yield out of your crop.
The inputs, made on site
OHN, garlic and ginger, with pull dates
Various FPJs — aloe, fennel, dandelion
Water-soluble calcium from oyster shell and organic apple cider vinegar
Lactobacillus doing its thing
Separating the chunky cheesy curd from the yellow lactobacillus liquid
Watercress we grew, used in a ferment
FAA — fish amino acids
Mushrooms fruiting in the mulch — the soil is alive
Every fermented solution above was made by us at home with organic ingredients.
Three practice areas…
Indoor Cultivation
Facility design, environment, feed, IPM, and the day-to-day workflow that turns a room into consistent yield. From scratch or as a fix.
Solventless Extraction
Lab design first, then wash SOPs, freeze-dry SOPs and pressing SOPs for grade and yield.
Licensing & Legal Compliance
Compliant facility planning, local and state application packages, SOPs, security plans and inspection prep — the same path I walked myself.
