Hello everyone! My name is Jack and I am trying to find a way in to the Cannabis Industry. Preferably working in a licensed grow facility as a Grower or Assistant to a Master Grower. But I would be more than happy to start out anywhere even sweeping floors and cleaning toilets (as long as there is opportunity for advancement; I will start anywhere) this is my life’s calling I can feel it in my bones.

Thanks Nick,
I would like to become more active on this really excellent tool!
I have a vast experience in molds and what growrooms need to do to keep it at bay…
First and foremost, all growrooms have molds, even the cleanest of cleanrooms have some degree of microscopic spores.
The next blinding flash of the obvious, but yet, as it is not so visible very few realize that, ‘every spore is costing you money’! It’s true! not only does the mycotoxin (the all pervasive gaseous release from the mold) penetrate into the plant although there is no visible signs of molds…
Just recently a spectrum photography revealed that mold could be identified in an area of a growroom a whopping 9 days before it became visible to the eye…
Now, in those 9 days what happened? well the mold actually detracted and went into a hibernation mode and then only comes out when you just happen to be walking past? Not so says growers logic, what actually happens, given that we could have a set up with a big magnification lens and nice lighting and super fast photography as the release of mold spores during dew point, (between 1am and 5am differs everyday), The 200G force release of mold is the fastest known projectile known on the face of the planet earth according to David Attenborough who said that certain molds spores are trajected so fast that it makes a speeding bullet look like it is going in reverse, (or something like that).
So, these spores in the, not millions, its the Big B and maybe even the big T for trillions, they fly everywhere and wherever they land, they have one function, destroy organic matter as quick as possible…
Now, much like us, if we have to go someplace for a week or 2 and there is heavy mold odors in the day time, and you sleep in there, after 2 weeks (or in some cases like yours truly, 2 minutes), you may begin to notice a few things are not quite right! lol… (i don’t mean to laugh out loud if someone is suffering the terrible affliction of exposure to toxic molds, it is quite a horrific oreal and it can take years, if you ever really recover such is the ferocity of mold.
Cannabis plants also cop it when exposed to molds, yields definitely reduce, also efficacy, and for the connoisseur, flavours are effectred etc.
‘who ya gonna call’?

I think I posted a reply to you in the wrong location, lol, still navigating through the forum. Seems like a really great tool…
Wondering, should I put up a post offering free samples to growers? Just want to run things by you first to see if it is appropriate or not… I try to make everything informative in a neutral sense, but at the end of the day, the world of cannabis has to know that our product exists and can make such a difference!
All the best,
Ivor

Spores are EVERYWHERE. I’ve dealt with some pretty nasty facilities in my time, so I know that a bad grow can be a breeding ground for molds/mildew (bad grow for plants, great grow for molds!). Lol. Ewww.
GNET is a great tool and resource. We are here to help. Growers are always looking to banish mold and mildew.

Getting samples out on the forum is something we can discuss. I’m sure we can collaborate to get the word out about your product!

Thanks for your welcome! Yes the pizza is great here, still the same. I live near Monmouth University about a mile away from the ocean. Love it here, yes I think Cannabis is on the verge of blowing up in NJ. I’m sure its nice out in Tucson. I have a client in NC that grew up on the shore and we found out that she knew several people and some clients of mine up here, it’s true what you say about knowing the same people! Would definitely like to make some connections so lets keep in touch!

Many producers are public companies so they look for D&O, product
liability, recall and cyber risk insurance. Not all brokers are one stop
shopping, of course. The next level is the Ontario Government, for adult
use legal market demands each supplier to the retail market have a $15MM
per occurrence policy for recall and adverse reaction risks… insurance
requirements differ per province. Happy to take this off-line and a call,
if that makes any sense. My company has Quality Management Systems for the
sector which integrate with all seed to sale, and we are working with a
broker in Ontario to get lower liability premiums if insureds use a QMS
platform, hence some of my interest…
