The two point five 62 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: cents a gallon program goes to the end of the 63 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: month because it's more complicated.

Sure? Like you start 69 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: with a great bass and and you build upon that base. Look, 70 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: cannabis uses something very different macro secondary micronutrients during the 71 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: grow and the bloom phase. There is an actual shift 72 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: that happens. Micronutrients are so hyper critical. Get that right? Uh, 73 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: of course we do. A lot of folks out there 74 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: are well they're still struggling to figure it out, and 75 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be polite. Uh, well, be candid. What 76 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: do you mean? And we have a three part and a 77 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 1: a four part it depends powdered nutrients. We have a 78 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: three part and a four part solution. And then on 79 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: top of that, once you get the base, how depending 80 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: on the strain, how do you want to start manipulating 81 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: that through every stage of that plants development. We're experts 82 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: at that. We've been researching cannabis for twenty three years. 83 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: We've sold more product than all the other nutrients companies combined. 84 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: We know what we're doing. Not only do you know 85 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: what you're doing, as you say, the research, you go 86 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: above and beyond with the research because you just recently 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: came in from out of the country. You've been traveling 88 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: to Israel, You've traveled to Germany, you go to these 89 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: medicine exposed, You sponsor these doctor pharmacy exposed that are 90 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: looking into the nutrients, that are looking into the plants 91 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: from the pharmaceutical aspects. So not only do you put 92 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: your you know company out there to say, by our product, 93 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: but you put your company out there with your money 94 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: to support the people that are actually doing the research 95 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: on top of your own research that you do. But 96 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: this is what you do and your company does that. 97 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: In my opinion, is that quite a bit difference than 98 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: any other company because someone may hear going, oh, you 99 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: sold billions, huh yeah, and guess what he's put billions 100 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: and millions and everything else back in to the research 101 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: of the company to advance cannabis and your plants to 102 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: grow to their like I read your true genetic potential. Look. 103 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: During the Dark Ages, we had license to study cannabis 104 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: where research purposes in the country of Bulgaria. We had 105 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: dozens of scientists taking that plant apart, and we figured 106 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: out a lot of things about this particular plant and 107 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: different varieties in in in the cultivars Uh, cultivars I 108 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: love learning that can, dude, they said. Cultivars I was like, 109 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: we changed the game. We're like and we we've stopped 110 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: using it for a minute, but we've got to use 111 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: it again. And then flowering is is called generative stage. Generative, Yeah, 112 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: that's the generative stage because it's regenerating. I'll say, Mike, 113 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, um, going through the life cycle of of 114 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: of an entrepreneur, someone like yourself. That it's came from 115 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: the good old days in the industry to where you're 116 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: at now. You know where is it evolved in your 117 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: eyes and and and where is it going? Sure? Wow? Uh, 118 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: you know during the Dark Ages it was a very 119 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: very different game. Uh, when economies usually went down, there's recessions. 120 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: Our business went up. In today's day and age, cannabis 121 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: is overproduced in the United States and in Canada and 122 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: now it's all about quality. So this industry is going 123 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: to change dramatically, especially for the hydroponic store owners, because 124 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: the ones who adapt are going to do extremely well. 125 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: The ones who don't and think as business as usual 126 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: are gonna slowly put themselves out of business. It is 127 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:22,239 Speaker 1: going to be the home grower and the commercial license 128 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: producers that are is the way that this market is 129 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: going to divide up, and it is happening right now. 130 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: The hydroponic stores, if they want to survive for the future, 131 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: they have to change their game. They have to engage 132 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: with the client when they walk in the grower. They 133 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: can't just let the grower dictate what they want to 134 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: use because if they're using products that are not going 135 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: to give them quality, they're not going to be able 136 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: to sell in the marketplace and you're gonna put yourself 137 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,119 Speaker 1: out of business. That's essentially what you're doing. There's gonna 138 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: have to be skew rationalization. That means carry the only 139 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: the top brands that are going to give the best results, 140 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: because you owe it to the grower to educate them 141 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: and give them a product that they can go to 142 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: market with and that they can sell and the ones 143 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: that aren't doing that are gonna go by the waysides 144 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: the one that are gonna change make their stores look friendly. 145 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: So soccer monads want to come in there because there's 146 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: going to be a huge home grower market that they 147 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: can make a lot of profit on. And if they 148 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: want to go knocking on the doors of the LPs, 149 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: they can do that to the license commercial guys. We 150 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: now have a platform it's called Advanced Duty and Certified 151 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: Retailer platform that is being launched on November twenty eight. 152 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: Technically is done now that will take any store owner, 153 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 1: through any one of their staff and train them up 154 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: into how to approach clients, how to talk to them, uh, 155 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: everything that they need to know about the advanced nutrients products. 156 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: Then there's another platform being built that we're in the 157 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: middle of that will be probably sixty days away from launch. 158 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: It's our Green Team platform. It is made for the 159 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: commercial large scale grower, so we can teach them what 160 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: they need to know to grow quality. Because what's happening 161 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: is you have the top guys that came out of 162 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: the dark ages in there, but the staff underneath them 163 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: are not understanding what they have in their head. And 164 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: then there's a lot of frustration going on. Now. You 165 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: can put a person through our training program and if 166 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: they pass, you should probably hire this person.

It's a learning management system. 175 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: It's extremely well done, and it breaks down every single 176 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: thing that you would need to know as a hydropodic 177 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: store owner to run a successful operation. Wow, and that 178 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: launch is novembery and it's a it's every evolving thing. 179 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: We're gonna keep adding content to it all the time. 180 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: Then we're building one for the commercial guys, because what 181 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: we found out is we're walking into these these facilities 182 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: and the master of cultivator knows his stuff inside and out, 183 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: but he's pulling his hair out dealing with his staff. 184 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: And so this will take care of that pain point. 185 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: It's it's it's SLPs putting in place and and following 186 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: the processes. Yeah, and creating systems, I mean, you know, reliable, 187 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: replicatable systems. I love that. I love that, Mike, you know, 188 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: And I think there's there's something to say about that, 189 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: because if we train properly, you know, then our teams 190 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: can can grow and then we have real leaders. And 191 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: I think there's been a lot of you know, going 192 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: back to the high just stores right for so many 193 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: the last i'd say several years has been a big boom, 194 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: so they're just letting people come in and grabbing. It's 195 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: been you know, gold rush, right. But now I think 196 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: you're you're right when you say this. You know, it's 197 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: like you have have to actually help go back to 198 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: helping them because I think, you know, ten years ago 199 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: they used to sit there with you and say you look, man, 200 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 1: there wasn't as many years ago. Ten years ago, we 201 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: would walk into hydroplanic stores and the guy sitting behind 202 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: the counter was doing this, right, he was getting high 203 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: and playing video games. Sorry that those days are over with. 204 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: You have to engage in the proper way in this 205 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: marketplace with the potential growers and clients that are coming 206 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: into your your, your your store, those are gonna be 207 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: the leaders. They will. Look, there's a lot of smart 208 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: guys out there who will adapt and we are going 209 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: to make it. And there's a lot of guys who 210 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 1: will just either retire or do you feel like a 211 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: lot of literally put themselves out of business? Are these 212 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: a lot of stores that are like that out there? Well, okay, 213 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: so let me give you some hard numbers. Uh, three 214 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: years ago, we're dealing doing business with nineteen hundred and 215 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,599 Speaker 1: sixty eight sixty seven Hydroplanic stores. Today that number is 216 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 1: nine hundred sixty. The writings on the wall, you're gonna 217 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: have to change the way you do you do your business, 218 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna help you. We're there, we are there 219 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: to help you do that. Plus we have special pricing 220 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: programs as well for them that they can participate in, 221 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: but they have to commit to us will commit to them. Yeah, yeah, 222 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: i'd say some real effort. Well. I think a lot 223 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: of people too, Mike, are probably going online and just 224 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: buying your products or their products, or any products from 225 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: Amazon or online anywhere for that matter. You know, So 226 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: I think a lot of these stores suffer from just 227 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: like every other type of business that's out there, you know, 228 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: brick and mortar. You're looking at these companies going why 229 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: are these all falling apart? Well because of the big monster, 230 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: big a m you know zon Amazon that's out there. 231 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: Because what's Amazon selling cannabis to EU? You know what 232 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying, It's like, okay, what happens to the delivery services? 233 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: So this ancillary products that you guys have and other 234 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: companies that you guys have that are dealing with these 235 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: smoke shops that people aren't being able to get educated though, 236 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: they're just going off their own education and going online. 237 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: They are. And so one of the things that we're 238 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: doing is we're gonna have homegrown kids and they'll be 239 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: uh you know quote on there and they hit that code. 240 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: It goes straight to the videos and teaches them from 241 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't care if if if you've never grown anything, 242 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: you consider yourself have a black thumb.

Congratulations to Missouri for just jumping up 249 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: to Maryland. Absolutely neither win for us, andwhere between three 250 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: and six plants and with auto flowers the technologies that 251 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: are out there today, you can do that two to three, 252 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, four times a year with an auto flower. 253 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: There's a product that I've seen that I felt was 254 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: very innovative from the Advanced Nutrients team, which was that tablet. 255 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: Can you tell us about that because yeah, food and 256 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: juice plus tablet. Yeah, it's it's a mass root expander, 257 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: and it will also protect against fusarium, and fusarium is 258 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: a huge problem. And what is that. It's it's a fungus. 259 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: It's it's a disease to the plants that kills your plants. 260 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: And there's multiple strains in a lot of cannabis that 261 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: are out there. People aren't realizing it and tests are 262 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: starting to come out. But here's the thing. When you 263 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: can suppress disease and a plant, your yield is gonna 264 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: go up automatically just by suppressing that. And then and 265 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: then there's the root mass expand apart. So not only 266 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: are you are you helping your plant. Imagine if I 267 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: told you somebody said, hey, you gotta go work out, 268 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: but you had the flu or you had some kind 269 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: of a disease, And I know by the way you 270 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: gotta pack on twenty pounds a muscle, you're not gonna 271 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: be able to do this. It's even possible. So that's 272 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: exactly what's happening with the plant. You get rid of 273 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: the diseases, you get clean, you know your cuttings to 274 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: start out with, and you're gonna get a better yield 275 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: just off of that alone. And then when you expand 276 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: the route, rout mass. Every university study there's a direct 277 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: correlation with root mass the yield, And what does it 278 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: say every time? The bigger, the bigger the roots, the 279 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: bigger big Exactly, That's why I set you for that. 280 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: Big Mike is here with us, you guys, the CEO 281 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: of Vance Nutrients. If you grow or consume cannabis, you've 282 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: benefited from something that Big Mike has done since nineteen 283 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: eighty three. When we come back, I'm gonna ask him 284 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: because I read something about you, Mike, five things I 285 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: wish someone told me before I became the founder. Those 286 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: five things were so interesting and so intriguing. We're gonna 287 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: dig into that a little deeper.

But I left the break saying five things 299 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: I wish someone told me before I became the founder. 300 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: A great read. There. You're educating folks. Can you sum 301 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: it up for people that are listening to this now 302 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: that didn't get a chance to read that? Are people 303 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: here watching us at m J Biz two in Las 304 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: Vegas and interviews? What? What? What? What? Bottom line is this? 305 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: If you could give somebody, it's just go to one 306 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: right now because there's so many things you can give 307 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: tips to, There's so many directions that's you've gone in. 308 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: But if somebody goes to Mike, this is everything. And 309 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: you've heard it a bunch of times, but it really 310 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: won't think and tell something really shitty happens to you 311 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: in your life, and that's know thyself. Like you need 312 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: to understand yourself. You're blind spots, and you need to 313 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: understand other human beings. Every miserable thing that's happened to 314 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: me has taught me to be a better human. You 315 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: have to be able to self reflect and think about 316 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: your actions with other people and how it impacts them, 317 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: because you're not going to attract the team that you 318 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 1: need if you're not a strong and balanced and composed leader. 319 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: And that is everything. It doesn't matter what business you're in. 320 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: That is the number one thing. And if that means 321 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 1: going to a therapist, if that means getting self help books, 322 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: you need, you must do that. That is the single 323 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: biggest thing in any business. Is you that it's not 324 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: only beautiful, it's poetic. You're speaking to everyone to us listening. 325 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: I'm just you know, it's funny because you know I've 326 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: seen Joe getting teary eyed. I don't want to mention 327 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: it's not a funny, it's not a joke, but it's 328 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: it's it's feel the same way.

And 494 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 1: earlier he said about cannabis, what I like about it 495 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: is I was able to bring a team of people 496 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: with with with me, and they were able to help 497 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: myself get to where I want to go. You can't 498 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: do it alone. One of the things that I had 499 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: to learn from the Dark Ages was when you're growing 500 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: you're kind of isolated and you're you're growing alone. You're 501 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: by yourself, and you you're dependent on yourself and and 502 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: only yourself, and you're living a life of secrecy. Well 503 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: that's what life is not meant to do that. If 504 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: you want to really grow in life, you need a 505 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,239 Speaker 1: team of people around you. You need a team of 506 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: friends around you. You need to do it as a group. 507 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: Because there's a reason why we're social creatures, and it's 508 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: it's a social thing. It's it's you look. If you 509 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: want to run, if you want to run run fast, 510 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: you're run by yourself. If you want to go fire, 511 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: you have to do it as a team and a group, 512 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: and you have to come together and you have to 513 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: coalesce the right people in the group that will work 514 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: together the right way. And when you get that, when 515 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: you find that, you are totally unstoppable, and anything that 516 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: you want to do in life, any business that you 517 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: want to get into, it is all about you. Because 518 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: if you don't have yourself right, you're not going to 519 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: attract the right people around you to form the group 520 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: that will take you to where you want to go. 521 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: So it's always about you and the people around you. Yeah, 522 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: you know, Mike, I I can understand you, and I 523 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: understand you so deep in my heart. Again, it's it's 524 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: something that I'm going through that I think that we 525 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: all have been through, and it resonates very well with me. 526 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: And one thing I want to just kind of add 527 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: to that is I feel like a lot of people 528 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: think a boss is having a nice car, or having 529 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: a nice house or having nice things. When I look 530 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: at just the opposite of boss is someone that hires people, 531 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: provides for people's families and gives them opportunity. And when 532 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: you do that, you have people that march for you, 533 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: you know. And I've realized that the more that I 534 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: give my my team and the more that we help 535 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: each other, the more that we start to grow, because 536 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,239 Speaker 1: everybody starts to march for us, you know. And and 537 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: although there's some bad actors, you know, we we find 538 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: the bad actors. And and I've i've I was, you know, 539 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: telling you earlier that I look at the advanced nutrient 540 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: seem a lot of them. I don't know them all, 541 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: but I know a lot of them. And they're great. Uh, 542 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: they care, you know that They've taught me things like 543 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: we protect our house, you know, and things like that. 544 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: And I listened to that, and I go, well, like, 545 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: you know, where does that come from? You know? And 546 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: it's like, Mike, this is training, you know. I I 547 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: hear how you train them, you know, and give them 548 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: education and and be a great leader, you know. And 549 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: I and I just want to commend you again for 550 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: one putting your blood, sweat and tears into this industry 551 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: because it's near and git in my heart it's my 552 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: father was in this industry, you know, my dad taught 553 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: me how to grow my my you know, my my 554 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: mom left my dad because he was in the cannabis industry. 555 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: He taught us how to sell cannabis.

Going to can Med was was the 580 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: real deal for me. Yeah, I think can Med needs 581 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: to be a can Mad section in here, right, Like 582 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: how they have Hall of Flowers, they need to have 583 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: can men. That's a whole different side story. But my 584 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: point to what I want to hear from you is 585 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: share with us and the listeners how you've seen cannabis 586 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 1: affect the human society in the best ways possible. I'll 587 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: do it from a standpoint of having growers come up 588 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: to me and thank me for putting their kids through college, 589 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: buying their houses all this stuff, to seeing cancer patients 590 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: who had six months to live who are still alive today. Uh, 591 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: and and how it's healed. Not only has it to 592 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: help families grow and people prosper, but it also has 593 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: helped people with their health and and that's those two 594 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: are the most rewarding things that I've seen in my 595 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: journey all around the world. As you go around the world, 596 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: as you go here in the States, I see big 597 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: companies make some big moves and little moves. But you 598 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: see big growth from Glasshouse, so to speak. Right, glass 599 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: House just had their third quarters come out. They did 600 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: pretty good. You see all farms go down a little 601 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: bit but still do well. Those are probably the two 602 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: biggest out here in California. As far as grow houses. 603 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: Where else do you see the country looking out here 604 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: in California. I know, off Ere we set it and 605 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: you set it on here a little bit. But you 606 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: said a lot of these growers are gonna be growing 607 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: from home. Now it's gonna be these big growhouses, and 608 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: those are those are the two biggest in California. I mean, 609 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: you got Glasshouse the law, and then you're gonna have 610 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: guys who grow quality at at scale. And as the 611 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: economy gets tight over the next two years, and it's 612 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: going to you're gonna see more and more people say, 613 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: instead of going to a dispensary where they get a 614 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: high taxation, rather than going to the black market where 615 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: you don't know what you're getting. You're gonna see guys 616 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: and gals growing in their homes and uh, it will 617 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: be the most economical way for them to acquire Canada 618 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: US and they know what they put into it, they 619 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: know what's in it, and uh, that's where the market 620 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: is going to be. A large sector is going to 621 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: be over the next few years. Now when the comedy 622 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 1: turns around, you're gonna start seeing dispensaries and well, you're 623 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: gonna walk into seven eleven and you're gonna pick your favorite, 624 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: uh form of cannabis there. And what happened in Florida 625 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: with the I forgot the circle, Yeah, they're gonna put 626 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: it in the Yeah, it's it's definitely coming. I've been 627 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: I've been preaching that for a lot of years. A 628 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: lot of people went against me on that, and I 629 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: you know, I do feel for the and that was 630 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: that wasn't even a hit. I do feel for the 631 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: independent dispensaries and the guys that have already invested so 632 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: much money. But I think that it's it's inevitable that 633 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: the big operators that the the Kirklands of the world, 634 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: the clastcos, they're gonna come into distribute across the country 635 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: because they know how Yeah, a dispense reads who are well, 636 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: we'll have to kind of pivot and adapt. They're gonna 637 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: be more like wellness centers. I can see them with 638 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: psilocybin products in there as well as cannabis products medicinal No, 639 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: it will eventually. Uh. We came real close in California 640 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: to to getting get pushed through for for legalization through 641 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: the legislator. Uh, we'll see what happens in that. You 642 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: can do it in Oakland though, I mean yeah, so 643 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: so some cities have like Oakland has that that's what 644 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 1: or Oregon you can do that.
