How did your head grower learn to grow high quality cannabis?
As a Colorado native, our Master Grower Mike Ginevicz, learned to grow cannabis under an apprenticeship 16 years ago. Mike perfected his trade working as a medical caregiver growing many different strains in both Colorado and California. In 2010, Mike accepted the master grower position with Ballpark Holistic and is responsible for cultivating our own genetic cross strain, "Denver Maple". Mike's biggest secret to growing Cannabis Cup Winning cannabis is care. In 2014, we were awarded 3rd Place at the 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup for the best Indica with Denver Maple.
How do you grow your cannabis flower? Is there any unique element to your method (Soil medium, nutrients, type of lights)?
We pride ourselves on having some of the best phenotypes of medical genetics and some exotic recreational genetics. Every genetic has its own very different unique growing needs. Mike understands each and every one of our genetics and its needs. For each genetic, we have very detailed organic care instructions for cropping, feeding, trimming, curing, and other requirements. When cared for properly and done exactly as we have charted, our plants produce near perfect specimens of their genetic. We credit our entire grow team for loving what they do and always striving for perfection. That makes us the best in the industry.
How do you choose which strains to grow? How many strains do you grow at 1 time?
We are well known for our flower, so we push the limits trying to find the next great strain. We first focus on the full spectrum of genetics to provide strain variety and then do a lot of research and development. Typically, this takes 9 months to a year for each phenotype so it is is an ongoing, perpetual process. Only 20% of the phenotypes that go into research and development make it to genetic selection and then only 30% of our new genetics actually go into production. We typically have 50-60 strains growing within R&D and 35 strains in production at all times.
What is your most popular strain in terms of sales?
Our most popular strain is "Denver Maple". We earned 3rd place in the 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup "Indica" for Denver Maple and when its available, it typically only lasts on the shelves for a few hours. Our Sour Diesel, Dark Star, and Blue Dream are huge local favorites and almost always available. We have a few new strains that come to production each month.

How did your head grower learn to grow high quality cannabis?
Timothy Nolan, head grower at our York facility, primarily on the job & I [Chris Henton] have been growing for medical patients commercially since 2009.
How do you grow your cannabis flower? Is there any unique element to your method (Soil medium, nutrients, type of lights)?
We grow our cannabis in coco coir using a proprietary fertilizer blend that is formulated specifically for cannabis. Our focus on the small details is what separates us from other growers.
How do you choose which strains to grow? How many strains do you grow at 1 time?
At this facility [York] we have 32 genetics being grown currently. 16 are in heavy production currently and the other 16 are being trialed to see if we want to bring them into heavier production. That decision is made based on patient feedback as well as testing for potency and certain cannabinoid profiles.
What is your most popular strain in terms of sales?
Typically, across the board, our White 99 sells very well. Not too far behind that may be our Primus.

Please provide a brief history of your company.
We started with a small medical dispensary to grow for our friends and family. It turns out we had a lot more friends than we thought as we grew exponentially since its inception. This fall, we celebrate our seven year anniversary, proudly growing top shelf cannabis at an affordable price. As one of the early license holders in Colorado, we walk as an industry leader with confidence of a bright future.
How many locations do you have?
We have one location in North Park Hill, just east of Park Hill golf course. This one building encompasses four business licenses, two grow licenses and two store license, medical and adult use. We consider ourselves a boutique shop, tier one grow facility, growing fewer than 1800 plants.
How did your head grower learn to grow high quality cannabis?
Our head grower is what you call a cannabis refugee. He relocated to Colorado having a medical need and seeing benefit from cannabis. He had a dream of growing fine cannabis in the Colorado market. After working a number of positions and production grow facilities, he found himself at Dank quickly moving through the ranks. We saw the keeping kind mentality inside of Jeremy Kraus, and rewarded him with grow manager responsibilities in 2015. But it wasn't without significant effort and time from the entire staff that yield such a quality product.
How do you grow your cannabis flower? Is there any unique element to your method (Soil medium, nutrients, type of lights)?
We tend to utilize tried and true methods of growing, producing, harvesting and selling cannabis product. With increased regulations and prohibited means of pest management, we tend to place emphasis on our staff spending more time in the garden. We use bamboo staking for support, hand watering techniques, safe pest management plans, and continue to educate our staff to put everyone in a high level of technique in the garden. We are proud to report that DANK harvest's continually exceed expectations in yield and potency, achieving as much as 2.5 pounds a light with THC levels high in the 20-30% range.
How do you choose which strains to grow? How many strains do you grow at 1 time?
At Dank, we grow in the neighborhood of 30 strains of top quality cannabis. Within each flowering block we will generally have about six strains, allowing for a nice strain variety at the Bud bar. Strains are selected with production, quality, and seasonal interest in mind. We are proud to say that most strains at Dank test well over 20% THC, and are blessed with great genetics. To keep things fresh we have a commitment to our customers to continue pursuing new strains each year, allowing for a fresh look on the shelf with each visit at the Bud bar. We have nine strains of cannabis to choose from and place them on three shelves for product diversity, including house shelf, bombshell, and VIP shelf. We have more than 100 menu items, satisfying our sophisticated customers with a wide selection of flower, concentrates, infused products, and topicals.
What is your most popular strain in terms of sales?
There are certain strains that, when available, people come out of the woodwork to obtain. This includes Space Queen, Death Star, and the classic Blue Dream. While these are popular strains to smoke, they are not the best to grow. These particular strains are challenging with layers of leaves infused between the buds, making them difficult to trim and increase the possibility for harboring problems. During certain times of the year we may not grow them at all. We've also gone so far as DNA certification for these strains. This ensures that the Bud is in fact what we say it is, and identifies it as genetically unique.
Have you won any awards? If so, please name them.
So far we feel that the pay to play contests that are in the market today are just that. Since day one, we have focused on the top shelf bud to satisfy our selective customers and patients, not the panel of judges. Because of that we have a strong and loyal following from customers across the nation. At Dank our mission is to provide affordable cannabis while creating a personal relationship with our customers. We are proud to say that keeping kind is not just a tagline, it's a way of life.

How did your head grower learn to grow high quality cannabis?
Founder Matthew Huron began growing Cannabis in 1996, when his father and his father's partner were diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. In 1996, when medical marijuana became available in California, he saw firsthand the symptomatic relief patients experienced from this alternative medical treatment. In 2000, he began growing medical marijuana for AIDS patients throughout the state, founding and operating a nonprofit medical marijuana co-op. Like most great cultivators, experience - good and bad - is the best teacher. Matthew honed his skills by respecting and learning about this remarkable plant, being bold with innovation and, building upon his experience, always being open to new ways to grow more efficiently and productively.
Chief Production Officer Duncan Cameron is a master cultivator in the cannabis industry who learned to grow high quality cannabis through his experience in plant husbandry and advanced propagation techniques. He significantly reduced time to harvest at Good Chemistry, increased the available gene pool from six to more than 70 strains, refined integrated pest management as it pertains to cannabis and optimized the indoor cultivation environment. He served as project manager for all of Good Chemistry's nursery expansions.

How many locations do you have?
Natty Rems has a single medicinal and recreational store located on the 5th floor of the historic Hitchings building in lower downtown Denver (LoDo).
How did your head grower learn to grow high quality cannabis?
Natural Remedies' owner and head grower had a meeting of the minds with their mutual desire to smoke a wide variety of the best cannabis possible. After failing to find the best of the best around town, they realized there was only one option; grow your own. Our head grower explained, "I didn't have control over the product I was purchasing so I decided that if I wanted the cannabis to be a certain way, I had to do it myself. If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself." From there, he researched and learned the most effective methods of growing, mostly through trial and error and lots of sampling.
How do you grow your cannabis flower? Is there any unique element to your method (Soil medium, nutrients, type of lights)?
Our particular feeding program was developed to bring out the best smell and flavor possible; we focus on growing for terpenes. Everything at Natty Rems is hand watered and maintained by hand; we keep it very old school.
How do you choose which strains to grow? How many strains do you grow at 1 time?
We focus on producing a wide variety of cannabis for our store shelves; Indicas, Sativas, Hybrids. Aside from variety, we like to focus on growing heirloom OG Kush varieties. There's nothing quite like a well-grown OG strain. We have around 100 different strains in our catalog with an average of 50 flowering at any given time, while constantly researching and growing new strains from our legally-procured seed catalog.
What is your most popular strain in terms of sales?
Our most popular strain in terms of sales is definitely Natty Rems OG, aka Kurple Fantasy. Our head grower enjoys growing various strains for different reasons. Cookies is a favorite because it's simply a beautiful strain; frosty, purple and dense. OG Kush can be a challenge to grow and our head grower is always up for a challenge. Long-flowering Sativas are also a favorite because they're a unique treat. Few facilities in Colorado take the time to flower strains for up to 77 days but when we do, the results are unforgettable.

The Happy Camper Cannabis Company opened the doors of both its retail dispensary and the concentrates processing facility in Bailey Co. on March 5th, 2015. We originally intended to build out our space as a grow facility, but the concentrates line was so well received and grew so rapidly, that we decided to halt construction on the grow and focus solely on extractions. We then set our sights on being the best, as opposed to the biggest, with a strong emphasis on small batch artisanal quality. As a result, we have seen steady growth every month since opening and have had to double the size of our extraction lab twice in the last 18 months to facilitate the increase in production.
How many stores are you in right now?
You can find The Happy Camper Concentrates in over 20 retail locations throughout the state, and we expect that number to grow substantially over the next year.

We currently produce both BHO and PHO, and we are in the R&D phase of a distillate product that we hope to have on store shelves in the coming months.

Karing Kind Labs was a medical dispensary that became the first recreationally licensed manufacturer in Boulder. We've been researching and developing CO2 extracts for almost six years now, and we've only been to market for the last couple of years. Our main goal has always been to provide clean and safe products derived from our intelligently-grown, organic methods. We just wanted to translate our normal organic methods to our concentrate products using Co2 - the safest and cleanest extraction system since there's no byproducts, no harsh chemicals, no residual solvents of any kind. Co2 has been widely used for extracting essential oils for decades.
How many stores are you in right now?
We're in close to 50 stores across the state.
What methods do you use to extract?
We had studied a lot of extraction methods - we tried butane, dabbled in propane, and also looked into alcohol extractions, glycerin & acetone extractions. The bottom line came down to this: we wanted a clean and safe product that didn't use any harsh chemicals as well as we wanted a facility that wasn't at risk of hurting employees from blowing up. We found that Co2 provides clean and non-toxic extracts.
Where do you get your flower?
We grow upwards of 90% of all the flower we use in our extractions to maintain quality control - to insure the organic methodology of the product. It's important that the base product we're using aligns with our philosophy.
What is your newest and/or most popular product?
We started with general sativa, hybrid, and indica versions, then created strain specific and high-CBD versions. Our newest product is Terpene Rich, which is what people are really looking for that extra boost of flavor and effects. We've found that there is no reason to take terpene out and put them back in, so what we do is a dual-ended process; in the beginning we strive to leave as many of the original terpenes in the extract as possible, because typically when you're extracting terpenes out you're using some sort of solvent. Our philosophy is "no chemicals," so we try to leave those terpenes in as well as add a unique blend of organically-derived terpenes for a really unique flavor profile - its going to be a bit more unique than most of the terpene stuff on the market.
Have you won any awards?
Not yet. We haven't really participated much in any big award events yet, and most competitions seem to be only looking at solvent-extracted shatter and wax.
Please provide a brief history of your company.
