Um, so, yeah, we're really

18
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:26.519
excited to be here and probably all
here for kind of the same reason.

19
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.599
We love cannabis and that's why we
work for this company and we want to

20
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:36.079
share it with everybody. Oh yeah, hell are yeah yeah what about what

21
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:42.959
about y'all? So I'm the one
of the lab directors at Coal of Farms.

22
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:49.159
On a day to day basis,
I'm often, you know, creating

23
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:57.040
hydrocarbon extracts and helping clear up,
distolate, doing whatever whatever they really need

24
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.280
me to do. Yeah, this
d remo g as you then, huh

25
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:05.319
the one we tried to Yeah,
yeah, yeah, hell yeah, yeah.

26
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:08.080
You guys like it? Yeah?
I was digging it, man,

27
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:10.680
and I like the packaging a lot
that you guys, well, we'll get

28
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:13.919
into that in a second. But
I definitely like that you have terpeens on

29
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:16.080
there, and I appreciate that it
smells and taste the same. But oh

30
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:22.479
my god, turps on that were
incredible. Yeah, very good. Yeah,

31
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:24.960
I think so. I think that
was the turpane retention was like close

32
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:30.280
to eleven percent. He gave us
the CoA so yeah, you know,

33
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.159
so we got those. I love
it because it's got the turpeens on it.

34
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:38.120
Yeah awesome, we appreciate that.
Yeah absolutely, Oh yeah, um

35
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:44.759
yeah uh we got me in a
cannabis I was back in Oregon twenty eighteen.

36
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:47.520
How to you know, opportunity to
join the cannabis company out there?

37
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.560
Rout with the company was the gym, A buddy's brand out west. Um,

38
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:58.199
pretty big brand on the West coast
through California, Oregon, Washington.

39
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:04.199
Um cool. So how an opportunity
came out here and met with coal of

40
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.240
farms before the lab was constructed,
when it was just a farm part of

41
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:13.000
it. Um likes what I've seen
and one of the different changes, scener

42
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.639
yourself come out here and help grow
this one. Hell yeah, I love

43
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.800
it. So you've had you've had
some experience and industry them for a while.

44
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:22.439
Then from the West coast all the
way to Hear. Pretty cool to

45
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.960
see the probably the bud and the
concentrates out there and now the Michigan market.

46
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.599
Yeah definitely. And I got the
big thing I know as being in

47
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:31.599
up north farm, I just I
thought was really cool. Is y'all do

48
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:36.319
outdoor growing? So I just I
really want that's really cool to me,

49
00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:38.560
because like it's not everyone does that
downstair, you know, not as much

50
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:43.319
space. So I thought that was
really cool. Um, was there a

51
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:47.199
reason for coal of farms like starting
like orwi? You know what was the

52
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:52.879
mission stated behind that? Yeah?
So our our owner has been, you

53
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:57.360
know, a big advocator from back
from the caregiver days. He's been in

54
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:00.680
been in a strong definitely out of
kating for the cannabis here in Michigan.

55
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:04.479
Um. And when everything went you
know, legal, it was, hey,

56
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:09.400
where's the pivot point? You know? Um, so we pivoted into

57
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:15.719
a company and yeah we're here now. So hell yeah, so we imagine

58
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.279
y'all smoke. Do y'all smoke?
But what's your favorite ways to in Jess

59
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:24.240
Canvas? Gotta ask ask everybody?
Our smoke flower every day. I dab

60
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:29.399
every day. Um. Edibles not
really my my swing, but that's just

61
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:31.720
because I don't get that same high
off of edibles, you know, but

62
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:41.079
I feel it do Um. I'm
an old school doobie girl. Nice.

63
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.160
Um, No, I do like
smoking joints. I just like something about

64
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:49.240
rolling a joint, smoking a joint
and um, just love flower really,

65
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:57.360
but I'll dabble. I'll dabble in
the dab um and how about you,

66
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.920
matail U. I'll try I do
everything on a day to day basis.

67
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:05.240
I eat a lot of edibles to
start my day. To start it.

68
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:11.360
Do you have a concentrate you know? I smoke my flowers throughout the day.

69
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:15.839
Um yeah, a lot of My
favorite, like, my favorite way

70
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:20.560
to smoke concentrates is a puff go
I have both puffco peaks and they're phenomenal.

71
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:26.920
Yoh yeah, it's handy for me, is in a better way.

72
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:30.480
I'm just I'm so addicted to the
temperature being right every time, you know,

73
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:32.439
especially not having to heat up like
the titanium emails and stuff. So

74
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:41.680
and I'm about damner so dab's like
my preferred way methods always consistent. Love

75
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:44.120
it, dude, I feel you. And yeah, honestly, yeah,

76
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:46.920
and you guys do a little bit
of everything. I want to start jumping

77
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:48.839
into products, but I feel like
I might be jumping ahead a little bit

78
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:55.920
because I'm excited. M cola houll
you guys been operating us, you guys

79
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:58.560
branding the products. They I'll pull
up some of the stuff. Why that

80
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:00.399
you did show us some of it? So, um yeah, I can

81
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:04.720
speak a little on that. Um
been basically operating for just under two years.

82
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:11.439
Really, UM, we have a
cultivation facility. Uh. We call

83
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:15.040
it the farm um. And that's
kind of where Cola started. UM.

84
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:17.759
And if the owner were here today, he would say that's what it was

85
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:23.240
about growing, you know. UM. And so then move a little bit

86
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:27.199
down the line, and as Marquis
said, it was um, you know,

87
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.759
time to build up the processing center. And so that's where you know,

88
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:38.040
we specialize in those concentrates, both
um, you know rosin and live

89
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:45.040
resin. UM. And I would
just probably say that, UM, you

90
00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:50.920
know, I describe my job as
we're a small company. We're all family

91
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:56.360
here, like as as as hard
as it is to go to a job,

92
00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:00.000
and like everyone you know, UM, I feel like that's kind of

93
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:03.279
how it is here, just because
there's a little shy about forty of us,

94
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:09.759
you know, and we just all
really care about what we're doing honestly.

95
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:12.480
So yeah, it looks like,
I mean forty of you, you're

96
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.120
doing a lot of things. I
mean you grow definitely starts, but I

97
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.079
mean we're showing your products right now. You've got the edibles, we've got

98
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:21.399
some pre roles, we've got live
rosin, we got resin and then this

99
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:26.160
crystalline heart, which is pretty unique
to you. I don't know if I've

100
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:28.560
seen that much everywhere, But like
you want to talk a little bit about

101
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:30.040
some of these products. I mean, I just why I'm showcasing some of

102
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:33.279
them. I just want to like
show some love because Dave's showing them and

103
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:38.720
like the consistency looks great on them. So definitely, I mean, so

104
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.959
as far as our solvent list goes, that's really where we came into the

105
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:46.279
market. That's what launched us into
the concentrate part. We started with solving

106
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:53.160
lists. We grow great quality outdoor
flower. We could think about outdoors,

107
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:56.040
You're gaining a lot more turpines than
you went indoor. You're getting that natural

108
00:07:56.079 --> 00:08:01.199
sunlight, sorotation is going to be
a little bit higher. I know outdoor

109
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.079
has a bad stigma to it,
but turping wise, you get a better

110
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.519
attention on your turpens coming from an
outdoor plant than you will an indoor So

111
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:13.480
just curious, I mean, not
to sidetrack, but you said bad outdoor

112
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:15.959
has a little bit of a bad
note. Why why would you say that.

113
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.040
I'm just curious, because, like
I mean, to me, I

114
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.839
definitely see like less controlled environment.
But at the end of the day,

115
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.560
like that's how it started, you
know, so you feel like there is

116
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:26.600
I could hear you on some advantages
too, you know, form different states

117
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:30.920
to stay. You know, outdoor
gets a bad stigma. Everyone's like the

118
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:35.200
indoor premium shot shelf flower, um, and that's not really what you make

119
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:39.120
the best concentrates out of them,
So people look at it as, you

120
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.399
know, a lower tiered concentrate because
it's from an outdoor plant, and it's

121
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.679
kind of the opposite. I yeah, no idea. How big is the

122
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:56.200
farm? How many plants are?
It's so for example, UM, I

123
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:03.759
think what did I say last were
we grew seventy different strains at the farm?

124
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:09.200
We've got essentially, um, one
hundred and fifty acre farm, but

125
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:16.879
um, we only utilize about fifteen
or so of those acres to actually grow.

126
00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:20.879
We leave a lot of the rest
to do what it will. Um.

127
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:28.559
And how many plants have we I
don't know the exact number either,

128
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:33.720
but about seventy different strains with a
couple of rows of yeah, no,

129
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:35.240
no, no, yeah, absolutely, I can imagine a lot of plants.

130
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:41.000
Yeah, I know they've probably got
the massive and pretty yeah, we

131
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.279
love to know actually, and I
guess said told him. I was like,

132
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.679
my family's not too far from there, Like we have some family up

133
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.480
there. We could swing by.
It's like an hour away, but like

134
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:50.159
I love to go up there.
So you said you're up North Tawas right,

135
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:56.039
Yeah, some employees that are from
the galer Day area. Oh that's

136
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:01.960
awesome. I got there right before. Okay, okay, yeah, See

137
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.080
it's all really close up there,
you know, Like I mean it's like

138
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:07.200
one road you turn left once or
right, you know. I mean there

139
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:11.000
was a lot there's not as much
turning and stuff down as there is down

140
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:15.200
here. But I mean, Cola
why why why would they name Cola Farms?

141
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:16.440
Is it? Just like I mean, I don't want to assume.

142
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:20.879
So, um, I can talk
a little bit about this too. Um.

143
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:28.600
You know a cola um. You
know also that you know top bud

144
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:33.039
of a of a plant um.
That's I mean, where the name really

145
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:39.200
came from. Um. And you
know, just to accentuate on how important

146
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:45.960
that bud is. You know,
it's like sucking everything from all the other

147
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:48.480
ones. I got. That's cool, that's cool. It's like pulls it

148
00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:52.240
to the top. It's the top
one, the top bud, I got

149
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.120
you. That's clever, Like,
I mean, I knew what a cola

150
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.759
was, but I was like why
why? I mean like why specifically,

151
00:10:56.799 --> 00:10:58.879
like what is your like behind thoughts? So that's cool. I like that,

152
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.080
I did that. I do that. It's pretty smooth. That makes

153
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.200
sense, you guys. Um we
got the edible showcasing right here, and

154
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.399
you guys placed, if I'm not
mistaken, first place with the Strawberry Edible

155
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.039
lection the High Times Cup correct.
Um. Yeah, Marquis can talk a

156
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.240
little bit about that. Yeah,
so very proud of that point. We

157
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:26.240
entered again this year obviously. Oh
yeah, yeah, well we entered our

158
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:28.759
concentrates in this year as well.
The ones we gave you guys are actually

159
00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:33.159
the ones that are entering in UM
as far as the concentrations that you guys

160
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:45.440
got. The blockholders Doug Band cheese
flavor. I like that Blockberry blocker solid.

161
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:50.360
Yeah, that black is really good. Yeah, it's a for for

162
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:52.799
the rose. And consistent is like
that bad or consistent consistency that I like.

163
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:56.360
And Dave's like, we need to
make a donut like immediately, but

164
00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:58.879
we have to wait till we had
to wait till the episode because otherwise it

165
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:01.200
be like gone. So he was
like, no, put it away.

166
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:03.919
We gotta put it away. So
we put it away. But yeah,

167
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:07.639
thank you for the little sort man. It looks it really looks great stuff.

168
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:09.879
I like it. I've been trying
it. I tried both, so

169
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.320
I've been digging it. Um any
I do want to say though, I

170
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.639
tried these edibles last night, forty
of them. I was dreaming, so

171
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:20.720
that was nice, Like I don't
you know, like I was. I

172
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:24.000
was actually dreaming, so that was
cool. So I, like I said,

173
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.320
I kind of like Marquis. I'm
not like a huge edible guy,

174
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:28.679
but like every once in a while, especially now at night, I've been

175
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.039
eating them kind of helped me knock
out. So and I mean that's when

176
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.759
my wife does shots him at nighttime, puts her out. So yeah,

177
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:39.720
yeah, I mean it helps,
you know. But I mean, so

178
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:43.840
do you just how many licenses do
y'all have exactly to do all this products?

179
00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:50.480
To do all this um? Do
you have a shop? We yep,

180
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.000
we have well, we have a
cultivations. We have our farm um,

181
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:56.960
and then we have a processing um
and then that's our in our processing

182
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.240
we have a commercial kitchen. We
have a high department extraction, and we

183
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:07.080
have a solved misubstraction EPACI. At
least everything's done in one building, which

184
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:11.480
is really nice. Um, when
you don't have as many hands trading,

185
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:16.960
you don't have lost communication. So, like Kennedy said earlier, we're very

186
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.919
tight and you know, I mean
the teo, John and the rest of

187
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.120
the crew. We communicate on a
daily basis of what we're doing, what

188
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:28.320
our next projects are UM and how
we can strive to be better. So

189
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.519
that's awesome. It's awesome. I
really appreciate that. Like you're always you

190
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:35.759
already said that a couple of times. I always trying to focus on the

191
00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:37.360
future being better, Like so it's
like, that's cool that you're so focused

192
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:45.679
on growing or pun intended, I
guess I should say exactly. So yeah,

193
00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:48.600
um, yeah, you want to
talk about the products? Yeah,

194
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.679
I was gonna ask, I was
gonna know, I was gonna ask about

195
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:56.840
what uh, what strains you guys
are gonna be launching this year with the

196
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.240
upcoming UM or it's planning season now
or in April we have spring here,

197
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.600
you guys launching the same genetics that
you did this past year or you coming

198
00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:07.480
out with new ones. You said
you did seventy last year, so I'm

199
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:13.039
curious we did seventy last year.
Um, some of those go straight towards

200
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.360
like dissolate. Um, so you
don't really see those come out, um

201
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.440
honestly as strong. Uh, Disolan's
great. I like smoking, It's great

202
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.639
for on the road summertime. I
love a good pen um big and live

203
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:33.559
reson. That's really my my forte. But strains and a couple ideas of

204
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.879
new ones. So, um,
any like favorites out there or any like

205
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:41.799
breeders genetics, you know companies you
want to shout out because I mean,

206
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:45.200
I know Dave grows like a lot
of exotic. I don't know if there's

207
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:48.679
any like breeders y'all like specifically you
know, go to to see good different

208
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:54.480
genetics, you know. Um,
we kind of us a couple of different

209
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:56.840
ones. Um, just to be
honest, we got some West Coast stuff

210
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:03.399
growing here. We got some cool
Michigan stuff, um, tried and true

211
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.440
here to Michigan. So that's really
what we're looking on is not really where

212
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:11.159
the seeds come from, is what
grows best in this environment. That's what

213
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:15.600
you look for a year after year, you'll grow something that you weed out

214
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:18.159
the next year. They might have
been a great plant but just didn't do

215
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.279
what you wanted with it, So
you replaced that with something else that you

216
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:24.440
know might be a risk, but
it pays off, and hey, you

217
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:28.159
got another trying true. So that's
awesome. I mean, just that like

218
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.399
rotation of just not sticking to the
same thing. It means you're always looking

219
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:33.720
for the best of the best.
You know, had any strange stick out

220
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:37.799
specifically that you were like that one
that was that was that was that was

221
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:43.639
great? That block builder was one
of them. I mean it just dumped

222
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:46.559
out resin like no other, which
that's pretty crazy because not everyone, not

223
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.559
everyone gets a good rising pool we've
heard. So. Yeah, and it's

224
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.200
got seven percent in term profile too
on it. That's not bad too.

225
00:15:54.279 --> 00:16:00.159
That's really high up. Yeah,
you were saying that outdoor pulls more are

226
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:03.279
turpines, you know, that's pretty
cool. I never heard that before.

227
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:06.519
It's just because of the full spectrum
light. Is that like kind of thing

228
00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:11.279
exactly? That's all based on the
lighting. You can't replicate the sun indoors

229
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.120
no matter what. I mean.
You can definitely replicate a spectrum, but

230
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:18.440
you're never gonna be able to achieve
the power, all right, I mean

231
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:22.440
that's what the plant is like accustomed
to naturally, right, you know,

232
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:26.559
so that's pretty cool. I've just
never heard that before. So that's really

233
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:32.639
neat. I can tell you from
um taking pictures, um that we grew

234
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:38.080
squirt last season, okay, and
those were the coolest looking buds, especially

235
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:44.279
towards the end of I want to
say, they had those pinks. Oh

236
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:48.559
my god, they were just gorgeously
I had up. Yeah, I love

237
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:52.559
just wanted to grow one of them, like a pink pistols. Yeah,

238
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.159
that's crazy, that's awesome. You
don't see much of the pink in the

239
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:00.840
blue, right, Like, that's
really cool. Probably with the fall fall

240
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:03.319
hits up in the up with the
outdoor, that those buds probably turn really

241
00:17:03.359 --> 00:17:08.240
pretty like early, like oh yeah, those nice colors of the temperature drop

242
00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:11.000
and stuff. Oh that's true,
that's true, right, yeah, yeah,

243
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.160
And that makes sense. It's because
it gets cold in there a little

244
00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:18.759
bit cool. The farm is really
close to Lake Huron, so like we

245
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.200
always have a little a little weather
barrier being so close to the lake,

246
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:26.720
because you know, the lake always
is a little bit warmer than the ground.

247
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:30.480
Huh so, so what is the
Yeah, so what is what what

248
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:36.680
happens because of the lake? Uh
So, like the frost will go a

249
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:41.839
little bit over like certain plants,
you know, the frost will uh like

250
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:45.200
when when it starts cooling down.
Uh, certain places closer to the lake

251
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:48.799
don't actually get frost, like you
know in the mornings we have to scrape

252
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:52.240
off your car. Yeah, because
it so close and it's a little bit

253
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:57.720
warmer ambient temperature temperature that it uh, it doesn't frost being super close to

254
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:04.039
the lake. It's kind of its
kind of a good thing. It's differently

255
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:08.359
give you a slightly longer harvest than
if you were somewhere else where. You're

256
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:12.880
starting to frost and you're gonna want
to start harvesting you stuff. It's true

257
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.160
thanks to be an outdoor growth.
That's huge. You know, I never

258
00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:21.680
even thought about that. Wow,
that's pretty cool. I'll talk. I

259
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:22.960
think you know, you just think
lake effect. You think it's gonna get

260
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:26.920
colder, so right, Yeah,
it's kind of yeah, that really cool.

261
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:32.799
That's Michigan. And that was when
you said that Michigan first, California.

262
00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:36.000
Uh seeds that kind of makes sense
because the ones that are here are

263
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:37.880
the strains that are here. They
might like this soil, this ground more

264
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:42.839
right, I think so fast seeds
come from all over richrid some freak show.

265
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:47.839
Oh my god, if you guys
look up the plant, the thing

266
00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:52.240
we've seen it. Our buddy had
it. That shit's crazy. We grew

267
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.079
it. It just didn't yield worse
growing again, How long did it take

268
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:00.680
y'all? Huh? How long did
it take you guys? Because it wasn't

269
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:03.880
It wasn't that freak show, like
a really long grow because I thought my

270
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:07.759
friend had it for like months and
it got like that. It's tall,

271
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:15.400
like it wasn't a scene. I
mean maybe from the top of the pot,

272
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:18.200
maybe three and a half four foot. Yeah, it's a firm you

273
00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:22.480
know. It looks like a first
like a tree just growing straight up.

274
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:26.400
That's so crazy. I don't even
know if my friend harvested it. I

275
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:27.160
think he got sick of it,
did he? No? No, he

276
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:30.599
harvest he did, just he didn't
care for it as much. Would you

277
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:34.519
all? Did you guys? Like
your smoker? He did? You guys

278
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:37.519
like that? The bud development on
it wasn't very good. I think a

279
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:41.359
couple of the growers tried it and
they said it wasn't anything special. Yeah,

280
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:44.759
I think it just kind of because
it looked the way it did,

281
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:49.359
people were like whoa. But then
it's like it takes yeah exactly, like

282
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:52.400
I don't know, kind of like
a cool picture, but it doesn't really

283
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:59.839
like make a good grow Yeah exactly
exactly. Yeah, where can our li

284
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.559
steners try some of these uh concentrates
edibles your flower? Where's like the best

285
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:10.039
locations to be able to pick these
up? That? So, yeah,

286
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:14.240
luckily we're we're in quite a few
locations all over the state, from the

287
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:21.160
up down to the que Maple donu
um down to the bottom line. UM.

288
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:26.680
But I would say, you know, um, I try to shout

289
00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:30.440
out uh those stores that are going
to have our stuff in it on our

290
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:37.759
social media, UM, so always
be checking there. Um. And there's

291
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:41.319
a map on our website too if
you want to see. But I know,

292
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.480
um, you know, for example, down um towards you guys,

um planet fifty nine, shout out
planet fifty nine. Um. You know,

294
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.200
yeah, a lot of locations,
honestly, guys. UM, And

295
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:57.680
you said you said on your on
your website there's a map where they can

place. Look at that right on
the front page. Watching a little bit.

299
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.160
None. Be proud of yourself.
You should be proud of yourself.

300
00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:18.160
That was a big competition. There's
a lot of companies. You are a

301
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.160
small team. There's a lot of
big teams out there. Be proud of

302
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:22.480
yourself. I am not gonna have
a lot of big money goes into it

303
00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.839
too. It's and was that you
guys the first time entering too. It

304
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:33.680
probably was our first year. A
couple months after we watched Gummies. We

305
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:38.960
were not even a tenth of the
size that we are right now. Um,

306
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:45.799
a lot of smaller already up and
running fully. So yeah, we

307
00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:51.279
led with with solving the lists.
Gummies came next, Carts and hydrocarbon came

308
00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:53.720
afterwards. Oh ye, shout out
for our kitchen crew. You know who

309
00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:57.279
you are. Make it good edible? That was really good. I just

310
00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:00.200
tried to maple donut. Oh my
guss, I love it. I can't

311
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:03.519
believe how well it tastes like a
don't who came up with it? And

312
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:12.119
they who can try it, Dave. Dave called DIBs on this Sativa daous.

313
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:15.440
Oh it's so good. And that's
the thing. I ate some of

314
00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:18.000
your watermelons yesterday. I'm like,
oh, I ate one. I got

315
00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:18.960
my second one. I'm like,
oh, that's only twenty milligrams. I

316
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:22.200
looked at him like, oh shit, uh so heads up, everyone,

317
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:25.039
it's a half a slice of ten
milligrams. A whole one is twenty Because

318
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:26.920
I was forty deep before I even
realized it, and I was like,

319
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:30.559
oh, here we go. It's
gonna be sweet. That's very tasty.

320
00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:33.200
But either way, the map here
just hit find a store in the corner

321
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:36.720
on their website and you just type
in your zip code right there. So

322
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:38.480
it's really cool. I like that. Not all websites have that. That's

323
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:44.480
huge. Yeah, is there a
specific product that each of you like that

324
00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:48.440
you'd recommend that be like, hey, if this is go to through to

325
00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:56.480
try something. Um I'm a concentrate
I would like give me one, give

326
00:22:56.519 --> 00:23:03.240
me that chap mate. So we
got fucks here. We've been down in

327
00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:11.160
three party. Um so just hit
on some of this. That's clearly what

328
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:15.039
I just called. Ay, I
know, I know, I so that's

329
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.039
got such a funk to it.
No, here you can actually put the

330
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.839
container. I actually have all your
products pulled up in the corner right now.

331
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:23.240
You can put that bag. This
is the laches we're trying. Can

332
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.599
you show the turpeen side of it. That's one thing I do want to

333
00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:29.279
show. Because everyone watched our reviews, this is big to me. I

334
00:23:29.319 --> 00:23:30.920
love your packaging. I love they
have images, and I love that you

335
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:34.079
have the mounds. It helps kind
of both sides with people who don't understand

336
00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:40.359
turpeines. Any people who do so
are listening to us. It's great.

337
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:45.039
Yeah, no, it's great.
Your package is great, and we're working

338
00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:47.759
on a way to get all of
the Turpeenes. You guys can see the

339
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:53.000
colas we list the top three for
the consumer. It's a long list of

340
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:56.319
terpeens that are actually in there.
Set to list them all on that that

341
00:23:56.440 --> 00:24:00.799
back panel, there's like thirteen on
them'll show you the cla. Yeah,

342
00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:07.319
yeah, we're pulling it up in
and this is um black builder that turpines

343
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:10.559
we're looking at on the sheet right
here. You see it? Yeah,

344
00:24:10.680 --> 00:24:11.559
yeah, I got it all right? Cool, cool, cool. I

345
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:17.599
love that you guys very transparent with
it um, It's very cool. Yeah

346
00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:18.960
as a consumer. As a consumer, I like to see it because then,

347
00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:23.160
uh, you're not just about the
THHC percentage like high THC. You're

348
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:27.279
about showing the flavors the effects.
So sorry, and I totally cut you

349
00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:30.039
off. So you said you're a
big dab or you'll dab everything you love.

350
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.759
What what about y'all? What are
your other favorite products? So sorry?

351
00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:37.559
I got a d h D.
Sometimes I love the gummies. The

352
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:44.640
consistency and the flavoring on the gummies. I think it's spot on consistency for

353
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:48.759
sure. It's like it's not that
like I don't want to seeing stuff.

354
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:53.039
Yeah, you know, it's chewable. I mean it's you know, truly

355
00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:57.680
a like a gourmet gummy, I
believe. I like the maple donut and

356
00:24:57.759 --> 00:25:00.200
the watermelon. I haven't tried at
all of them. Man, Dave won't

357
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:10.720
share the sativa one. But buts
okay, Uh, you know, I

358
00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:15.119
try a lot of different products on
the market, and uh, I'm still

359
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:22.400
col of arms is my choice concentrates
to go too like it I do.

360
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:25.319
Before this, I don't know,
this is kind of a little off subject.

361
00:25:25.359 --> 00:25:27.440
But the crystalline idea was that your
first product in solving this that's what

362
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:30.839
you said, right, or was
that just like a side idea because I

363
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:37.519
saw the shapes first. I was
like a donut donut originally it was in

364
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:41.799
the form of a doughnut. We
still sell the rings. Um so that

365
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:48.960
one launched with our butter and our
jams and fresh press rosin um so we

366
00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:52.160
launched all four of those kind of
at the same time, and then we

367
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:56.799
did a urt sauce to go with
the crystalline ring in the beginning, UM

368
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:00.240
kind of something to buy. If
you were going to buy them together,

369
00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:04.079
you would put your own chirp sauce
over the crystalline ring and have the best

370
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:07.160
of both. So okay, Yeah, I think what I did was I

371
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:10.160
was just going to break it up
and put it in a joint like I

372
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:12.519
did my last time I got it, just kind of smoke it like that.

373
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:17.759
You guys get a chance to try
that. Um sorry if you already

374
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:21.400
said you did. Um, but
that crystalline hard yet I've tried it before.

375
00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:25.039
I've never tried this one. I
tried it like a donut one you

376
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:26.680
guys got before, because I bought
it, Like yeah, I was like

377
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:29.920
twenty bucks or like twenty five bucks. I'm like, oh, I'll try

378
00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:33.079
it, you know, throw in
some joints and see what's up. Yeah,

379
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:36.160
it's neat, it's different. You
don't you don't see the shapes out.

380
00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:40.319
You're already concentrates if you want to
boost out. So if you were

381
00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:42.599
to break that up and kind of
put it in like your block builder,

382
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:48.160
you get an extra THHC boost from
it, and it wouldn't really take this

383
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:52.480
taste of the block boots. So
that's the idea, is just to make

384
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:55.119
it stronger with the THHC side.
So if you like, I want this

385
00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:57.799
flavor, add the crystalline. Now, I'm like, I can't move because

386
00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:03.000
that's the idea, right, Yeah, I mean that's how I do it.

387
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:07.640
And again I'm a big dabber,
so I feel like I've seen people

388
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:10.000
do that with like diamonds, and
I've done that with diamonds and stuff.

389
00:27:10.000 --> 00:27:12.079
So this crystalline is your form of
like that diamonds. So what tempt do

390
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:18.519
you use? What temp would you
recommend for this for the crystalline for like

391
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:21.119
a temperature dabbing wise, there's a
certain temph to burn it hotter. Would

392
00:27:21.119 --> 00:27:23.720
you want to burn it hotter.
I usually do cooler dabs I cooler.

393
00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:29.039
I mean, I'm like, honey
Badger, Um, they're great. They're

394
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:33.359
an electric collector. Um great,
you have a lot temp nail. It's

395
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:38.279
always the same tent, no swinging
temperature, no torch. So yeah,

396
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:41.200
it's hard to go back. It's
hard to go back to the torch,

397
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:44.799
right, I mean y'all y'all pretty
much selling both. Y'all are like,

398
00:27:44.920 --> 00:27:47.839
get It's just it's just so hard, Like I want it sometimes but I'm

399
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:48.759
like, ah, but this one, I just push it twice and it's

400
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:53.519
yeah. Yeah, Like every time
I think like the ideal times, I

401
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:59.960
think like they're on like four nine, five times maybe perfect, that's right,

402
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.240
right, if I'm green and the
puff Go you got the Pro you

403
00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:07.559
said though, right, so that
probably has an exact temp. Yeah,

404
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:11.319
yeah, that's sweet. That's pretty
sweet. Yeah. The ranges on both

405
00:28:11.400 --> 00:28:15.759
puff Go Peak and the Pro are
pretty similar, I believe, but you

406
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:18.920
can cost them. And you said
last year was your first time basically starting

407
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:22.839
as a team. So you guys
are founded and from Michigan. Correct,

408
00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:26.000
just to reiterate, you guys are
from Michigan company. Are you guys.

409

411
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:42.759

428
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:55.880

the radar, I'd say for the most

429
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.880
part, um, just because it's
such a um what do you want to

430
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:07.039

441
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:00.640
I was chatting with the founder of
it. Um, his name's been the

442
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:03.960
other day and um, he said. What they're about, you know,

a choice. It's called Wilderness on
Wheels, which is pretty cool. Um.

00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:17.559
It's basically, uh, you know, trying to make nature accessible to

446
00:31:17.720 --> 00:31:22.000
everyone, you know, even with
disabilities. UM. I thought that was

447
00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:26.160
awesome. So yeah, we're glad
to be sponsoring a little bit of that.

448
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:30.519
We're a goal sponsoring that, so
just a little bit. But that's

449
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:33.240
really cool to hear your team at
Cole is behind those type of events,

450
00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:34.680
you know, because I mean it's
definitely cool to hear the high time stuff

451
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:38.160
and compete with the market, but
like those ones that's more passionate, right,

452
00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:42.559
that's your we believe in this that
we want to do that more too,

453
00:31:42.839 --> 00:31:47.200
like a lot more so hopefully you
know, we'll come from the caregiver

454
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:49.200
side sound and you know, advocacy
and you guys care about the plant on

455
00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:52.799
a passionate level, you know.
So I really that's that shows your family

456
00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:56.000
side too, you know, the
both all three of you really showed your

457
00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:00.119
passion from different sides of the team
over there at Coal. So cool.

458
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:05.839
We do. We ask how big
the team is. I think they said

459
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:09.680
forty around forty that's the total,
right, that's the total team. So

460
00:32:09.680 --> 00:32:12.960
so yeah, if you want to
break it down, like how many people

461
00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:15.000
do you have like working in your
kitchen and like stuff do you can you?

462
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:22.599
I am I asking too much,
Like it's curious. We're all certified

463
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:24.839
and getting the kitchen and get our
hands dirty. But it's a team effort,

464
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:30.519
got um. Generally there's four people
in the kitchen. My kitchen manager

465
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:39.559
Gail Big shout out of her.
She makes the magic happen. Ye're hasty,

466
00:32:39.799 --> 00:32:44.319
and then she's got a team of
three and then you know, sometimes

467
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:46.400
if we get crazy, we'll we'll
bump a couple of people in there,

468
00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:50.960
help bat some gummies, help help
push them alll so, but as far

469
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:53.319
as the cook team in the kitchen, it's for strong. So this year

470
00:32:53.359 --> 00:32:59.680
you entered your your concentrates and your
edibles and the flower or was it just

471
00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:06.480
the straight edibles into the high times
just the concentrates and animals things in there.

472
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:09.039
Well, I know they it's a
lot of product too. Yeah,

473
00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:13.119
it was a lot of products.
Yeah, we heard it's crazy. A

474
00:33:13.160 --> 00:33:15.480
lot of product. You have certain
requirements by certain times. It has to

475
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:19.440
be a certain everything we heard and
it it's you know, it's but it's

476
00:33:19.440 --> 00:33:22.240
it's a big competition. You know, it's a choice. Yeah, like

477
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:27.359
you guys said earlier, I love
uh. My favorite thing about that Cannabis

478
00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:31.119
Cup is just like you said,
like that these were brands like this small

479
00:33:31.160 --> 00:33:37.519
you know, brands that you know
are native to Michigan. And that's how

480
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:40.319
a bunch of people get to hear
about us, you know. Um,

481
00:33:40.359 --> 00:33:45.519
So I love that about that competition. Sure, there's so many bags,

482
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:49.000
so many people get their opportunities.
I mean we found many We got the

483
00:33:49.039 --> 00:33:52.119
High Times cup bags last year.
We ended up getting a couple. Um,

484
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.200
we weren't able to reveal the product
honestly because there was so much product

485
00:33:54.279 --> 00:34:00.319
and we got too many bags,
We'll be honest. But we were able

486
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:04.839
to find so many brands and new
products that we like liked like we uh,

487
00:34:04.960 --> 00:34:07.039
we just were recorded with old school
organics. We tried his product in

488
00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:09.800
the High Times coff and like that
was phenomenal. We finally just were able

489
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:14.400
to connect with him. Now.
Um, but like being able to like

490
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:15.840
try that private consumer, then you'll
be like, oh, may we're gonna

491
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.159
go to disbal be able to pick
it out and buy it. It's like,

492
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:22.039
I think it's it's fair, it's
good for the it's good to get

493
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:23.199
your hand out there. It's like, what's sort of what Kayley said,

494
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:25.559
you know, not everyone has the
access to be like I'm gonna go to

495
00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:29.159
every dispo. I'm gonna go to
all these things. So when you can

496
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:31.719
go to a dispo, pick up
a backpack and now you've tried what thirties

497
00:34:31.800 --> 00:34:37.280
different companies at once. Yeah,
these type of could these events keep it?

498
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:40.719
Really? Um? They helped the
consumer find the products that work for

499
00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:44.360
them, you know, because otherwise, like at least for me, I

500
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:45.760
don't know about everyone. Sometimes when
you're just living your life, you're like,

501
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:50.000
this is the dispensers I go to
because they're conveniently on my way of

502
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:53.199
life, like right, So so
sometimes that's why I liked the events because

503
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:57.400
like you said, like would it
would it would have everyone's seen Kola without

504
00:34:57.440 --> 00:35:00.559
that, you know, I don't
know. So it's but a lot of

505
00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:04.480
these coke these events are very cool
like that. Um, you know we

506
00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:08.199
heard the Za cup high times Like
now you just talked about dabs and what

507
00:35:08.360 --> 00:35:12.239
was that dis disc and dabs you
know, which is more of a discomp

508
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:14.880
but that's fun too, Like,
so it's just it's just that like,

509
00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:17.440
you know, getting you know,
we're seeing cannabis go into music vessels.

510
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:22.920
I played a music festival last year
that had um some cannabis like sponsorship and

511
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:27.400
events there they were doing dab bars. I just love seeing cannabis just intertwining

512
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.639
with other worlds because that's how it
becomes normal, right you know, Yeah,

513
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:36.920
absolutely, heck, yes, guys
breakdati um. Obviously you guys are

514
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:38.920
on the medical side because playing a
fifty nine in Waterford, so you guys

515
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:42.360
are medical and rack, which I
think is pretty cool. Is going to

516
00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:45.599
ask, but I remember you guys
mentioned playing to the United and we've seen

517
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:50.119
the product there. Um, do
you do you plan on continuing the medical

518
00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:53.360
license, like just being on the
medside, like or is that a license

519
00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:57.239
you guys might drop in the future
or you like because like because the caregiver

520
00:35:57.320 --> 00:36:00.000
side I think reminds me of the
medical side. So that's why I thought

521
00:35:59.679 --> 00:36:01.239
it was cool to mention that you
guys are on both sides of the medical

522
00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:07.079
Yeah. Absolutely, it shows where
on both sides. Um, we want

523
00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:10.320
to service as many people looking for
premium a cannabis as possible, so we

524
00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:15.559
don't want to limit it to someone
who can't. You know, if you

525
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:17.199
got medical needs and that's what you
got your card for, we want to

526
00:36:17.199 --> 00:36:21.199
be able to support that as well. That's where we started. That's you

527
00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:25.199
know, kind of our mission.
So I think people that's awesome. Yeah,

528
00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:29.599
I mean because access is different for
everyone, you know, so sometimes

529
00:36:30.280 --> 00:36:35.159
I mean out here in Waterford there
really is only medical. I mean when

530
00:36:35.159 --> 00:36:38.760
I moved here from Oregon, I
think there was one up here. It

531
00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:44.559
was like high level UM and everything
else was you know, medical. So

532
00:36:44.599 --> 00:36:46.480
I was like, yo, I
drive to Detroit and go grab some flower.

533
00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:52.679
It's crazy, let's go for it. But you know, evolving,

534
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:57.079
you know, Um, it's nice
because shops are opening up on both sides,

535
00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:00.599
so it's a good thing. Yeah. Yeah, that's what needs to

536
00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:05.079
happen. So it needs to be
more locations where retail shots for consumers build

537
00:37:05.079 --> 00:37:07.480
to go, especially when there's only
like one for like many miles. Yeah,

538
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:13.320
no, it's very true. Yeah. Yeah, I was gonna ask

539
00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:15.840
are y'all if you're if I was
looking to like work at coal farms or

540
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:19.280
like try to work. How could
how could they reach out to you?

541
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:22.679
How could they contact you? Are
you looking for anyone specific? You know,

542
00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:27.440
maybe somebody always off our website,
guys and and and anyone reach out

543
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:30.599
to us anytime on the contact for
him there and you can email us.

544
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:35.280
Um. You know, we run
the ads on indeed when we're looking for

545
00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:37.119
for help as well, so you
can always check and need and see if

546
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:40.719
we're out there. Honestly, if
you're trying to get in the industry and

547
00:37:40.920 --> 00:37:45.159
you're looking for that, that in
summertime is your best bet. That's when

548
00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:50.360
every farm is hiring. A lot
of our people started at the farm and

549
00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:54.199
ended in the lab. So you
know, that's kind of your your entry

550
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:59.159
level is going to be farm work. Um. That's kind of the easy

551
00:37:59.239 --> 00:38:00.360
way to get into it. It's
kind of how I got into it.

552
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:05.199
Um. So oh, you got
your good your foot in the door.

553
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:07.280
You know, especially with cannabis,
there isn't like formal education. I mean

554
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:12.400
there is starting to be, and
there's like engineered training and there's certain things,

555
00:38:12.400 --> 00:38:15.079
but like sometimes you just gotta get
your hands dirty and get the use

556
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:16.719
of this industry because the industry is
ever evolving. It it's so new,

557
00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:22.280
you know, so there's no handbook. When you work on the farm,

558
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:23.760
you respect the plant when you come
to the lab and you're like, man,

559
00:38:24.280 --> 00:38:28.400
I was out there sweating, breaking
my back off summer to grow these

560
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:31.440
Like now, let's let's do these
right, Let's abstract them, you know,

561
00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:36.559
with pride. So I like that
aspect of every one of us has

562
00:38:36.599 --> 00:38:43.800
been on the farm from me yep, um got our hands dirty. On

563
00:38:43.840 --> 00:38:46.559
the Farm's where it all comes from
too. I mean, like you got

564
00:38:46.599 --> 00:38:49.800
it to be able to talk and
walk the walk, right, it helps

565
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:52.519
to like know the plant itself,
you know. I think that's actually really

566
00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:58.880
yeah, but that's like a really
cool like yeah, shout out the whole

567
00:38:58.880 --> 00:39:00.559
farm team. You know, you
work hard, especially out the harvesting.

568
00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:06.519
Yeah, dude, it is a
different ballgame. It's crazy. It's farming,

569
00:39:06.639 --> 00:39:07.960
I mean in Michigan, and you
know farming, you know, it's

570
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:12.679
everywhere around us. But it is
definitely that, So shout out to them.

571
00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:15.519
They're the ones that make all this
stuff really happen. Well, you

572
00:39:15.559 --> 00:39:17.880
say that like it is TRUECS.
I mean, I mean I imagine you

573
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:22.239
guys deal with like pest and all
these other things that are so different like

574
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:25.760
actually have to deal with animals and
fences and making your animals actually not just

575
00:39:25.800 --> 00:39:32.239
like little best you know, Liken, we got some peacock um bodyguards that

576
00:39:32.440 --> 00:39:38.360
roll around so well hold on,
hold on. So the peacocks like they

577
00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:43.360
got like bags, no no,
so like for real though, like these

578
00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:47.480
birds with a kind of like they
run patrol and like literally eat the bugs

579
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:54.639
and sure for sure, so we
get packs on the trap I'm in now

580
00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:07.599
the peacock king sounds cooler too,
tire king, but for real though,

581
00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:10.480
like is it? What is the
strategy behind that? Does that help like

582
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:14.920
with all like the bugs and stuff. It's a little bit of regenerative farming,

583
00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:17.400
if you you know, peep our
story or you might hear us talk

584
00:40:17.440 --> 00:40:22.039
about just the part part of being
an outdoor grow and that sun grown bud.

585
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:28.320
You know, we are using some
regenerative methods to try and you know,

586
00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:32.599
not eat up the entire ecosystem for
everything that it's worth. Um,

587
00:40:32.719 --> 00:40:37.119
we're trying to make sure it's always
working. And peacocks is just like,

588
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:40.559
oh, you could call it a
little form of animal integration. You know,

589
00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:45.679
some farmers would be like animal integrations
cows, but you know, they're

590
00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:49.800
they're out there, they're they're making
their way through the through the plants,

591
00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:52.719
and that term could you could you
dig into that term a little bit because

592
00:40:52.719 --> 00:40:54.719
I don't know if our listeners really
hear that much because we deal with so

593
00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:59.039
many like controlled environments. What was
that regenative farming? Was that? I'm

594
00:40:59.079 --> 00:41:02.480
sorry, yep, So we're generative
farming. So you'll you'll see it on

595
00:41:02.480 --> 00:41:07.000
on big farms, um and on
small farms. You can do it anywhere,

596
00:41:07.119 --> 00:41:09.920
is the thing. But the key
concept and idea behind it is just

597
00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:17.719
regenerating your environment. And so like
we actually don't till um. We pot

598
00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:22.480
our plants um to make sure the
soil, you know, can just be

599
00:41:22.639 --> 00:41:27.480
natural and keep on doing its thing. Um, we set up this pad

600
00:41:27.719 --> 00:41:32.920
ass um like drip water system um
to conserve water. Um that goes to

601
00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:37.920
every single plant. Like it's the
craziest thing you'll see, Like every pot

602
00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:43.000
um has its own little system.
But I've never seen a large scale outdoor

603
00:41:43.039 --> 00:41:45.280
grow either. So I can't even
picture what you're saying. I mean a

604
00:41:45.280 --> 00:41:47.920
little bit, I can, right, But like when it's so controlled and

605
00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:52.440
everyone's every you know, every one's
perfectly in a line, and they're stacked

606
00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:54.320
and they've got like library cases inside. It's very different, you know,

607
00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:58.079
continent an outdoor, so it's really
neat too. You don't even you know

608
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:05.039
you you're still putting them in pots
like yes, massive, how big of

609
00:42:05.079 --> 00:42:09.320
a plots? I gotta know now
you can't tease me with massive? Two?

610
00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:15.880
Undergone? Two? Wow? Have
you your arms on both sides?

611
00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:22.159
What these plants are like trees?
You guys, guess you're just gonna have

612
00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:24.880
to come Okay, So I've seen
pictures of those. They're like the bush

613
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:30.079
trees that my hammer. H yeah, I would say, like from like

614
00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:34.960
the ground, some of them could
easily get over twelve the thirteen on them

615
00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:45.760
from the Shout farm team when you're
really are twelve feet and that makes sense

616
00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:55.920
where you do. So I mean
the plants probably I just because damn that's

617
00:42:57.159 --> 00:43:00.519
I mean, it's a man.
It's taller than me. I still big,

618
00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:05.000
but then it's still probably likes you
too, like on the side,

619
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:08.039
because outdoor you can just kind of
let them grow and you're growing off a

620
00:43:08.480 --> 00:43:12.039
so you're not in like a greenhouse, so you're not confined by space.

621
00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:16.599
We're both so we knew new greenhouse
flight death and we grow in the field.

622
00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:23.199
So our flower you guys, that's
greenhouse flowers. So yeah, light

623
00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:27.920
death. That that's interesting is that
for like the the wax frox and stuff.

624
00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:30.880
There's just just just to try different
strains and do different things. Really,

625
00:43:31.039 --> 00:43:37.719
I don't know. I don't know
a new farming. Yeah, if

626
00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:42.000
I had DJA here, that's our
head grower. M I to be all

627
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:45.639
over that and you know, telling
you guys more stuff that I don't No,

628
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:46.840
it's very cool just the fact that
you're doing both. I mean,

629
00:43:46.920 --> 00:43:50.639
even if it's just R and D, it's really cool to hear both.

630
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:52.920
I just you know, like I
said, i've been you know, my

631
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:55.400
brain always pictures the singular plant,
you know, when you're talking about these

632
00:43:55.400 --> 00:44:00.920
giant trees, I've only ever seen
pictures. So I that's crazy. That's

633
00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:02.920
awesome. You'll have to come check
them out because it is something. Well,

634
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:06.920
definitely, when you guys, when
is it like time to come?

635
00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:13.079
Is it like August? Pretty much
up towards August, you're going to see

636
00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:15.320
the I'll be looking to him Earlier're
gonna see some babies in the ground.

637
00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:20.760
That's really exciting. August is my
birthday month, so well, I mean

638
00:44:21.079 --> 00:44:22.639
I do go up north usically for
my birthday, so we'll swing by.

639
00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:28.760
Yeah, that's so cool. Us
I just want to I just never even

640
00:44:28.840 --> 00:44:31.239
seen hot like cannabis grow out the
way it can grow because it has to

641
00:44:31.320 --> 00:44:35.599
be so controlled, right, So
that's that's that's an advantage to the outdoor

642
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:37.880
grow too. You can let the
plant grow grow. You know, it's

643
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:42.440
crazy just watching them, you know, just rip, you know, I

644
00:44:42.519 --> 00:44:46.239
mean they really take off in that
some light, probably some massive cola.

645
00:44:47.639 --> 00:44:53.760
Oh yeah, well, you guys
have been around for you know what you

646
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:55.920
said, a couple of years now, for your years you've been growing.

647
00:44:57.119 --> 00:45:00.000
I mean, any advice you could
give to a business star off or getting

648
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:05.360
into the cannabis industry or anything like
that, and just from your aspects of

649
00:45:05.519 --> 00:45:07.400
the industry, you know, any
any information I'm sure it could be useful,

650
00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:12.159
you know, for social media or
process coming into it. If you're

651
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:16.719
coming in and following your passion,
keep on with that, don't do don't

652
00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:20.639
do what everyone else that is just
to fit in. UM. I like

653
00:45:20.760 --> 00:45:24.039
that. It's a UM we like
to take pride in the way that we

654
00:45:24.159 --> 00:45:29.800
extract is different from some labs,
not like take jabs and labs, but

655
00:45:31.079 --> 00:45:35.199
just take take pride in what you
do. I mean, that's what we

656
00:45:35.360 --> 00:45:38.960
do. So I appreciate that.
Um. It's kind of fun. Uh.

657
00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:45.320
My personal experience um of being in
the industry really just a little over

658
00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:50.639
a year, um, and I've
learned so much. Um. And on

659
00:45:50.760 --> 00:45:54.320
the marketing side of things, that's
a whole another ball game, you know,

660
00:45:55.000 --> 00:46:02.880
aside from you know, I love
the fact that I was kind of

661
00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:07.159
joking with Dave the other day,
but if we don't we don't spend a

662
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:14.519
whole lot of money on a bunch
of marketing stuff because we're just trying to

663
00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:20.480
basically grow an organic audience. Just
to let you guys know. You know,

664
00:46:20.639 --> 00:46:24.079
there's lots of awesome brands out there. We're one of them, we

665
00:46:24.599 --> 00:46:28.840
believe, and um, we just
make some good stuff, you know,

666
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:34.159
Cannabis is what it's all about.
So m just a cool thing though to

667
00:46:34.280 --> 00:46:37.760
be able to kind of try to
market a brand like that, like it's

668
00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:43.199
it's something that I didn't see come
in a while ago. And there's a

669
00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:45.000
lot of challenges to to being in
the marketing. You have to grow it

670
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:49.639
more organically, right because a lot
of these other industries they can just pay

671
00:46:49.679 --> 00:46:52.480
I got a ten thousand our marketing
budget, I can just shove it into

672
00:46:52.519 --> 00:46:58.000
the ads. You can't do that
with cannabis and those are expensive, right,

673
00:46:58.119 --> 00:47:00.320
So you're kind of forced to do
certain things. You know, and

674
00:47:00.639 --> 00:47:04.840
already as a canvas industry in the
candas industry, businesses are held back right

675
00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:07.440
with no safe banking, you know, dealing with the decriminalization stuff with you

676
00:47:07.599 --> 00:47:12.280
can't just have credit cards and loans
the same way. So it's like you're

677
00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:16.159
already dealt with all these these demons, so here's just another one. So

678
00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:19.559
it's like the marketing could be really
hard. I mean, I see,

679
00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:22.360
you know we're trying to make posts
and you know we have cannon our name,

680
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:25.480
and they're like, ah, flagged
has been shadow banned as long as

681
00:47:25.519 --> 00:47:30.519
we've been doing this. Yeah,
definitely my whole name and to find me

682
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:35.159
so zacks, what's uh? I
was gonna ask you a question about the

683
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:37.880
future. Where do you guys see
the future of uh? Cola Cola farms?

684
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:40.400
Going almost said alm, He almost
did it. This whole time.

685
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:45.719
He's been good. He's been calling
a cool wala, everyone's slipped in and

686
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:47.960
I've been waiting for him. I'm
like, come on, just do it

687
00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:59.480
one, just give me it.
Sorry, right, definitely looking brand um.

688
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:01.400
I came from one of the largest
brands on the West Coast, so

689
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:06.559
we want to achieve the same thing
here in the States um by bringing you

690
00:48:06.679 --> 00:48:09.760
guys premium cannabis at you know,
an affordable cost. To be honest,

691
00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:14.760
I know it sounds cheesy, but
I love that you have your own farm,

692
00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:20.440
you have your own distraction, you
how to control your control your environment,

693
00:48:20.519 --> 00:48:22.840
you know, so we have full
control in what we're doing. We

694
00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:28.039
don't depend on other farms and how
they grow their weed to attract our resin,

695
00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:30.440
our live resin. It's it's all
in house, so you know,

696
00:48:30.519 --> 00:48:35.320
we know from the soil to the
oil, everything in between is all of

697
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:42.079
us. So nice drop, Why
is it? I like that too?

698
00:48:42.199 --> 00:48:46.559
I believe correct. We discussed that
US are everything cool things. Like like

699
00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:51.000
I said earlier in the cast,
I came from Oregon. Organ's already banned

700
00:48:51.039 --> 00:48:53.000
it. It's it's a it's a
no boat there. The company I was

701
00:48:53.079 --> 00:48:57.960
with, the Oregon for us,
so it was an obvious you know,

702
00:48:58.079 --> 00:49:00.599
when I got here that hey,
we're not going to do it. You

703
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:05.719
know, just studies on CRC are
still young, but they're showing a lot

704
00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:09.800
of cancerous I mean, is my
attractor he can go kind of more to

705
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:15.320
that than I can. But the
stuff left behind from CRC causes cancer.

706
00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:17.639
You know, my father died from
cancer. My mother in law just died

707
00:49:17.719 --> 00:49:22.519
last year from cancer. It's not
something I want to push on people to

708
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:24.079
smoke. I mean, I want
to enjoy smoking weed. I don't want

709
00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:28.360
to have it in the back of
my head. Hey I'm smoking cancerous materials.

710
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:30.480
It's lucky on because blabs don't test
for it. I knew it was

711
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:36.679
bad, but I had no idea
the links between that again, so geez,

712
00:49:36.880 --> 00:49:38.519
yeah, no, I had no
idea. You know, do a

713
00:49:38.559 --> 00:49:43.360
little deep die won't find out what
they're about, what they what they stand

714
00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:45.840
for. Well, it just shows
a lot, you know. It's it's

715
00:49:45.880 --> 00:49:47.519
something you really believe in. You
know. I can hear in your you

716
00:49:47.599 --> 00:49:51.559
know, and it touched you personally, so it's like you're like, why

717
00:49:51.679 --> 00:49:53.239
you know, this isn't something I
can stand behind. So that's awesome.

718
00:49:53.239 --> 00:49:55.559
That cool, really, like you
really focus on that. It's not just

719
00:49:55.639 --> 00:50:00.679
about profiting, so I appreciate that. Yeah, it's also misleading the customer.

720
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:06.079
You know, if somebody's getting some
CRC leeched wax. Oh it looks

721
00:50:06.159 --> 00:50:08.880
really good. You know, the
old saying used to be gold is good

722
00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:15.599
before you know, CRC started happening. Then why Yeah, no, I

723
00:50:15.679 --> 00:50:19.719
mean yeah, right, I like
the amber colors. It looks like how

724
00:50:19.760 --> 00:50:22.559
it should like. Yeah. Yeah, you know, we take pride in

725
00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:27.440
you know, the farm does a
tremendous job, and you know it starts

726
00:50:27.519 --> 00:50:30.599
from the farm because of course without
them, we wouldn't be able to produce

727
00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:37.079
a clean oil. So I like
from soil. Yeah, exactly, that's

728
00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:43.840
money right there. So the oil
doing the extreme og right now? Yeah?

729
00:50:44.639 --> 00:50:49.559
Nice? Nice? Um, do
you want to jump into the the

730
00:50:49.639 --> 00:50:52.920
funny question? Uh um, yeah, I guess we could do that.

731
00:50:53.079 --> 00:50:55.880
Yeah, well then let them give
any shout outs. Yeah well actually let's

732
00:50:55.880 --> 00:50:58.880
do the shout outs first. Do
you guys have any shout outs you want

733
00:50:58.880 --> 00:51:00.920
to give it? Obviously you shout
out arm team, but like anyone specifically,

734
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:06.079
any like people you work with,
anyone to help to get to West.

735
00:51:06.519 --> 00:51:08.960
He's really the big guy behind all
this. This is his dream coming

736
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:16.760
true. So without him. Um, he's the reason I'm here in Michigan.

737
00:51:16.880 --> 00:51:21.239
So he brought me out here,
you know. Big shout out to

738
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:25.800
him. Yep, really awesome guy. And and and our investors and I

739
00:51:25.920 --> 00:51:30.159
mean, I'll go down the list. Our employees are awesome, past,

740
00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:37.840
present, future, Um, this
this, that's why we're here because of

741
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:40.400
us. So a great staff.
Shout out to Lisa, Shout out the

742
00:51:40.440 --> 00:51:45.079
way team, the legal team.
They're the ones that you know, tell

743
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:50.199
us what we can what we can't
do. Um, and to make sure

744
00:51:50.239 --> 00:51:52.960
that we're following all the right steps. Um. You know, it's nice

745
00:51:52.960 --> 00:51:57.440
to have those people on the team
to look out for. So shout out

746
00:51:57.480 --> 00:52:01.079
to them. Hell yeah, shout
out Coal of farm. Well that's the

747
00:52:01.159 --> 00:52:04.440
thing, Like, it really does
take a team, right. You can't

748
00:52:04.440 --> 00:52:07.159
just be like it's one person because
you're only as strong as your weakest link.

749
00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:09.199
I hate something corny Ryan cliche,
but it is true, like you

750
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:12.400
know, and that's why you have
to shout out the whole team, especially

751
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:15.280
the small teams, you know,
not these hundreds of hundreds of people teams,

752
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:19.199
you know, and the huge change
over you know, so that's you

753
00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:22.360
know, it's the family vibes.
They're still they're still awesome. No hate

754
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:28.119
towards those big you know shops either, you know, because I can't remember.

755
00:52:28.159 --> 00:52:30.440
I was watching one of your Guys's
episodes the other day. I can't

756
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:36.880
remember which one it is right now, Um, but um it basically somebody

757
00:52:37.079 --> 00:52:40.559
was on there and um, you
guys were talking about um, you know,

758
00:52:40.679 --> 00:52:44.679
big teams or teams too. You
know, it's still people like,

759
00:52:44.960 --> 00:52:49.400
like the whole fucking there's a lot
of people that are about to lose their

760
00:52:49.480 --> 00:52:52.679
job or just lost their jobs.
Yeah. Yeah, well no, and

761
00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:57.599
that's what it is. But that's
why I guess what the only thing is

762
00:52:57.639 --> 00:52:59.599
I say, I like that,
like, you know, when there's not

763
00:52:59.760 --> 00:53:01.239
as big, there's like not as
much changeover, so you get to really

764
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:04.599
know your company. You get to
trust your teammates, right, you trust

765
00:53:04.639 --> 00:53:06.880
your you know, you trust that
you're gonna get this done and stuff.

766
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:13.920
Yeah, you're the team. I've
worked for like large corporations before manufacturing,

767
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:19.239
and that's at least my experiences.
People care still, but there's you know

768
00:53:19.320 --> 00:53:22.199
what I mean, everybody's on their
own level of Karen so right, because

769
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:25.199
they're a little more worried about their
own career, like not as a whole

770
00:53:25.280 --> 00:53:29.239
because you don't see the whole thing
moving. You just know your role and

771
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:30.440
you're like, I do my role. You know when you're at a big

772
00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:34.079
company, you know, like you
all were saying, like you all touch

773
00:53:34.159 --> 00:53:36.800
that plan, you all worked on
the farm, you'll have that common respect

774
00:53:36.880 --> 00:53:39.320
that you're like, you know,
we're doing this together, like get your

775
00:53:39.320 --> 00:53:47.880
hands dirty. So that's what's about. Teamwork makes the dream work or day

776
00:53:49.000 --> 00:53:52.519
We're just full of corny cliches.
Damn love it. You asked the question

777
00:53:52.519 --> 00:53:55.119
today. It's your question, bro. Yeah, so, um, it's

778
00:53:55.159 --> 00:53:59.440
a it's a funny question we ask
every guys who comes on. Um.

779
00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:05.000
If so, if you had a
ganja genie, like you're about to smoke

780
00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:08.480
about the light up take a dab
a genie pops out and go and grants

781
00:54:08.519 --> 00:54:14.079
you one wish anything you can do
to change the cannabis industry, what would

782
00:54:14.119 --> 00:54:16.800
you uh? What would you wish? Me? Yeah, I'm on first.

783
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:23.920
Um, maybe that it just happened
a lot sooner and and a lot

784
00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:30.000
of bullshit that comes with the stigma
just maybe wouldn't be here. That'd mean

785
00:54:30.079 --> 00:54:35.800
my wish from the ganja genie,
I mean, and to take an off

786
00:54:35.840 --> 00:54:40.440
the federal board, I mean,
schedule list schedules. It's stupid not to

787
00:54:40.719 --> 00:54:45.840
revenue stream coming from cannabis because support
nation. So like, what's the hold

788
00:54:45.920 --> 00:54:50.800
up, let's get I'm right there
with murquise is just me, you know,

789
00:54:50.880 --> 00:54:54.760
federal legalization not sad. You know, you can smoke ate all day,

790
00:54:54.800 --> 00:54:58.519
and you know, if you're in
one of our bordering states, you

791
00:54:58.559 --> 00:55:01.519
gotta fucking break them all to come
over here. And yep, yeah,

792
00:55:05.679 --> 00:55:09.960
you know, yeah, crazy,
I like it. And those are all

793
00:55:10.039 --> 00:55:14.239
great wishes. Yes, that was
pretty quick too. I get it sometimes.

794
00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:15.119
Do you guys have a wish?
Yeah? What are you guys?

795
00:55:15.320 --> 00:55:19.960
Wish? Oh my god? For
me, it's off the scheduleist to criminalization.

796
00:55:20.400 --> 00:55:22.840
You know, I do worry about
jumping the legalization only because I don't

797
00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:25.559
want to get weed from like every
other state that I don't want, you

798
00:55:25.599 --> 00:55:29.480
know what I mean? But I
definitely think to getting what you said,

799
00:55:29.559 --> 00:55:32.519
getting be scheduled is the biggest thing, because to me is just because like

800
00:55:32.639 --> 00:55:37.960
every it shouldn't be criminalized and the
only way to get over into normalization is

801
00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:40.760
getting rid of this. Like cannabis
is bad, Cannabis is evil, you

802
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:45.760
know, like mentality. So I
think it's phasing away, but it can't

803
00:55:45.800 --> 00:55:47.719
come soon enough for me. Yeah, yeah, that'd be true. I

804
00:55:47.760 --> 00:55:51.360
mean I probably agree with you on
that. I'll do so I'll say mine

805
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:53.559
would be Uh. Anyone that's in
jail for cannabis should be let out,

806
00:55:53.639 --> 00:55:58.840
especially where it's legal states. I
mean, we're making tax tax money,

807
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:02.079
so much money. I think Michigan
almost hit two billion last year in sales'

808
00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:06.440
Oh yeah, I mean people are
making millions the government contact. Let's get

809
00:56:06.480 --> 00:56:09.119
people, especially if it's not even
a bad offense like not much weight or

810
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:13.199
nothing like shoot it. Yet you
should not be in jail for cannabis.

811
00:56:13.480 --> 00:56:16.480
It's pretty cool. We've basically all
got the same wish should be coming true

812
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:21.079
anytime though. Really, just we
want to stop being treated like cannabis is

813
00:56:21.079 --> 00:56:22.599
a criminal. We just want to
live our lives and be smoked. This

814
00:56:22.639 --> 00:56:25.519
ship given to that negative stigma.
It's not bad plan. I mean it's

815
00:56:25.599 --> 00:56:29.920
been. It's truly great. I
mean we're seeing the effects from medical and

816
00:56:30.039 --> 00:56:32.960
too recreational. You're seeing it all
across the United States and now even world.

817
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:38.679
You're getting um, what I would
say, legalization in other countries in

818
00:56:38.840 --> 00:56:45.400
Europe and um, South Africa and
South Americiland. Jesus, Yeah I'm high

819
00:56:45.440 --> 00:56:52.400
now too. So yeah, so
yeah, UM really appreciate you guys coming

820
00:56:52.480 --> 00:56:55.760
on and representing Cola and letting us
know all about Cola. The products you

821
00:56:55.800 --> 00:57:00.079
have from the Rosin to the High
Times winning edibles, they're two hundred milligram

822
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:04.239
edibles, just so you all know. Like Groovey said, you guys have

823
00:57:04.440 --> 00:57:08.280
resin, rosin crystalline, you have
flowering. I'm excited to see what you

824
00:57:08.320 --> 00:57:12.079
guys have coming out this year and
your growing the new product, and good

825
00:57:12.119 --> 00:57:15.960

upcoming year, and you guys have anything

826
00:57:15.000 --> 00:57:20.880
else that you'd like to mention before
we uh, just thank you guys so

827
00:57:21.039 --> 00:57:22.719
much. This has been a lot
of fun. We've not done anything like

828
00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:28.400
this, so this has been pretty
awesome. And yeah, I would just

829
00:57:28.519 --> 00:57:31.079
say go vote for High Times if
you can afford it, you know,

830
00:57:32.639 --> 00:57:37.320
you know, go get you some
really bomb ass product from all over Michigan

831
00:57:37.360 --> 00:57:40.159
that you've never heard of before,
and vote. And because that's what we

832
00:57:40.280 --> 00:57:44.920
all need to figure out, is
you know, if the people like it

833
00:57:45.079 --> 00:57:47.360
and the people enjoy it and use
it. Yeah, and go show someone.
