What started as two friends working at Sears, dreaming bigger than punching a clock, turned into a full-scale cultivation operation producing some of Montana’s most sought-after flower. From moving plants in a U-Haul at the last minute… to building a purpose-built facility just weeks ahead of a licensing showdown… this is a story about risk, grit, and betting everything on a plant they believed in. Inside the facility, we break down: A 40+ strain rotation featuring genetics from breeders like Seed Junky Genetics Crop steering strategies using Grodan slabs.
