  • Great show but…

    The title of the episode isn’t always addressed, it is talked about eventually but there’s always a half an hour of non needed information. It’s not really a grow show, it’s more a culture show.

  • Entertaining

    This podcast has some great banter. I don’t agree with the grow style often or the advise but it is a fun and entertaining show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Smart Growers Choose Their Cannabis Strain Phenotypes (w_Chad Westport)
Q: How many phenos can you expect from a given pack, and how do you judge when a line is stable?
Chad indicates that a typical 10-pack may yield about four to five phenos; true stability is reached when subsequent generations consistently express the same morphology and resin profile, with fewer expressions as generations continue.
How Smart Growers Choose Their Cannabis Strain Phenotypes (w_Chad Westport)
Q: What is the difference between regular seeds, feminized seeds, and how do you ensure stability?
He describes the genetic basis of feminized seeds, how STS is used to block ethylene and induce male traits to generate seeds from female plants, and emphasizes stabilizing lines across generations to reduce variation and increase predictability.
How Smart Growers Choose Their Cannabis Strain Phenotypes (w_Chad Westport)
Q: How long have you been breeding, and what motivated you to start?
Chad explains that breeding began as a way to have seeds for personal grows, then evolved when he saw medicinal benefits and wanted to refine strains for specific effects, leading to a deliberate breeding direction rather than random seeds.

Q: How does crop steering work in a practical sense for a commercial grow?
Crop steering involves precise irrigation management to create mild water stress at controlled times, encouraging roots to explore for nutrients and promoting robust bud development, while monitoring media moisture and EC to maintain healthy plants.
Fastest Way to Get to Harvest with Pro Cannabis Grower Michigan Matt
Q: What is the basic premise of the no-veg method and how does it differ from traditional veg cycles?
The no-veg method eliminates the lengthy vegetative stage, compressing the production cycle so plants go from clone to flowering more quickly, which can result in more harvest cycles per year and lower labor and energy usage, provided plant counts and environmental conditions are carefully managed.
