The time rolls on and another year begins to come along around the corner. When this happens, over the course of years there comes advancements, changes, and growth in society. One such growth is in the Marijuana industry. From the attitudes towards toking up, to the market of specialized and high-quality products, the world is readdressing its position on weed. King Palm offers many such premium market-changing items and is leading the industry! These products include top-quality dry herb grinders, rolling trays, carrying tubes, wraps and rolls, lighters, scales, and so much more.

Here, there are grinders for the smoke-hard professionals, the girly-girl, the trippy hippy smoker, the casual user, the discreet toker, and everyone in between. 

Look Out for These Cool Weed Grinders

Unique, exciting, beautiful, pleasing are just some of the words to describe the Mars Grinder – 6 color collection by King Palm. Giving the greatest sensation of the ultimate outer space vibe, each grinder has a different space-tastic image on the lid. The sleek design leaves the user’s hands feeling out of the world, almost as if touching some rare outer space element. These are made from the highest quality aluminum and are 63mm in size (almost 2.5 inches). 

It continues like this in the varying fashion of ideological and fascinating space situations. This Mars grinder is a place the mind will surely roam after rolling up well-grounded weed from one of these out-of-this-world grinders. Each one is unique making it hard to not want to collect them all. 

King Palm also has a very slick 2 piece extra large grinder. The King Palm XL = Extra Large Grinder will take things to the next level coming in at a nice and handy size bigger than the average palm. At 4 inches wide and 2 inches tall, no weed around will go ungrounded with this sleek beauty. It offers a chunky grind and is made from extremely durable anodized aluminum and coated in ceramic.

metal-grinder-card

For the discreet grinder user, there is the Grinder Card from King Palm. It offers an elegant design and practical use, being the most sturdy and luxurious grinder card on the market. Unlike its cheaper competitors, this card is built to last. It has a variety of functionality options including the ability to slide in a pocket without notice, slicing, grinding, dividing, and scooping weed. It comes with a decorative protective sleeve for safe storing and keeping.

How to Use a 4 Piece Kief Weed Grinder and a 2 Piece Weed Grinder

4-piece-grinder

A kief weed grinder is any 4 pieces of a container that when combined together has 3 chambers made for grinding and harvesting herbs. To begin, put the 4 pieces of the grinder together. Open the lid and place broken nugget pieces inside between the teeth, and close the lid. Hold the grinder securely and begin to twist the top lid in one direction and the whole bottom segment in the opposite direction. Ground weed will then fall into the middle chamber and the build-up of kief over time will deposit itself in the bottom chamber. 

How to use a 2 piece weed grinder is rather simple, especially with the deluxe XL size sold from King Palm. This item offers a smooth and chunky grind. It is used by removing the lid and placing fat little nugs inside and between the grinding pegs. After filling the gaps between these teeth, simply place the lid back on. King Palm XL offers a unique design by adding grooves on the sides of the grinder to make the twisting rotations even easier and smoother. After grinding, merely open it back up and enjoy freshly grounded bud on a King Palm wrap.  

How to Clean Any Weed Grinder

The King Palm Mars Grinder and the metal cannabis grinder both come with a small cleaning brush and scraper utensil. These items can make upkeep and cleaning easier, but cleaning up over the long term may be a bit more complicated. The King Palm non-stick aluminum grinder will help prevent residue build-up but blockages can still occur. This is not too detrimental but using a clean grinder can still be a good thing for ultimate weed saving and usage.

Having a few handy items like a toothpick, a small unused make-up brush, and a new bristle toothbrush will be all that is needed to start the cleaning process. After taking apart the grinder, clean each piece with the toothpick and dust through with the makeup brush. Once all plant matter that can be salvaged is removed, it will be time to take some mildly warm water and the toothbrush and gently scrub it all over the inside. Once all residue is removed, thoroughly let the grinder dry. After it is done drying completely you can get to twisting those teeth on fresh green herb!

Where to Buy a Weed Grinder in 2022

When looking for where or how to buy a good weed grinder, look no further than King Palm! Many orders will qualify for free shipping, with the option to pay for upgraded shipping to have the item arrive quicker. Getting a metal weed grinder has never been easier with prices for the smaller grinders averaging around $30 and the XL grinder going for $45. The King Palm grinder card is an inexpensive addition to any purchase, coming in at just $5. Why not elevate into higher plains with a new grinder? There is just no reason not to enjoy these premium quality goods by King Palm especially with the inclusion of international shipping. Get yours today!

Why CBD Is So Popular With Pet Owners Who Have Anxious Dogs

February 4, 2019 by Staff Writer

why-CBD-is-becoming-so-popular-with-pet-owners-who-have-anxious-dogs

If someone asked you what medical condition do you think affects dogs more so than any other, would you guess it’s anxiety? This may surprise you, and you may immediately think, “My dog gets nervous, but he doesn’t have an anxiety condition!” Ask yourself these next questions, though:  

  • Does your dog bark when they shouldn’t?
  • Do they freak out when you come home?
  • Do they hide or seek comfort during storms?
  • Have you noticed there are occasions where they pace, pant, or pin their ears back more than usual?

These are signs that your dog could have an anxiety condition.

Dogs give us a run for our money when it comes to who is more anxious. And in many cases, we are the cause of their anxiety. Dogs aren’t naturally afraid of thunder.  

In truth, many dogs are susceptible to anxiety, and it’s easy to mess up and exacerbate it. Thankfully, we live in the perfect time to help our dogs with this issue. Today, cannabis products like CBD aren’t only helping us with our anxiety, but also our dogs.

For many, CBD has been the answer to helping their dogs tolerate thunderstorms, long workdays, and the strange neighborhood dog. Even better, when combined with training, CBD offers a powerful one-two punch solution for eliminating even the worst cases of anxiety.

Here’s how you can use CBD for your dog’s anxiety, as well as a few general tips that help prevent it.

Why Is CBD So Popular for Dog Anxiety?

CBD is popular amongst dog owners because CBD kicks anxiety’s butt when dogs get anxious. But why do our dogs get so anxious in the first place?

Why Is My Dog So Nervous?

Usually, the cause for your dog’s anxiety can be traced back to certain events during their puppyhood. Maybe a massive dog came up to them *bang anxiety*, or you clipped a nail too far back *leviathan level of anxiety*.

Dogs are pack animals, and when something scares them as a puppy, they come running to us. Our first response to this is to lighten our voices and comfort our dog, but this backfires because it reinforces their awareness/reaction to the situation. Essentially, you’ve just told your dog that there is a reason to be scared. Your best option to situations like this is to act like nothing happened – if needed, you can even throw a ball or toy to take their attention off of it.

These are just a few ways dogs can develop anxiety, though, yet with it being such a dilemma there isn’t a lot to help them.

With anxiety being so prevalent amongst dogs, many owners don’t feel a prescription drug is warranted to treat it. This doesn’t mean they don’t want to help their dog’s anxiety – they just don’t have an easily available option that is safe and effective. Until CBD…

CBD for Situational Anxiety

What’s great about CBD for dog anxiety is that it can help regardless of the source. For fleeting issues, like the 4th of July, CBD helps by offering around 6 hours of anxiety relief with just a single dose. Many owners find that this is all that’s needed.

Maybe your dog gets antsy on long car rides, but little do they know the beach is just a few hours away. CBD can help keep them – and you – stay calm on the road trip.

Using CBD for anxiety issues that don’t really warrant behavioral training is a great, quick, and easy fix for many pet owners.

CBD for Behavioral Anxiety

When you come home to a room that looks like a twister slammed a cow through your house – *90’s movie joke for ya* – you’re not dealing with mild or situational anxiety.

Behavioral anxiety includes aggression, severe separation anxiety, etc. and will require behavioral training to cure. But we all know training will not set in overnight, and your house can’t take one more hit, and work is tomorrow.

Again, the answer many owners are finding to this sticky situation is giving their dog CBD to help out in the meantime. In fact, one could argue that CBD is even more important for this form of anxiety as it can help dilute the emotional stress their anxiety is taking on them.

Final Thoughts

If you haven’t given your dog CBD before and are worried about the stigma or danger of giving your dog cannabis, don’t worry. Only high amounts of THC are toxic to dogs, and legal CBD has nowhere near enough – studies show small traces may even help.

As well, the dog community is perfectly fine with using CBD. Vets are still a bit wary of it – possibly due to legal reasons –  but veterinarian clinical studies are starting to take place on dogs and are showing great results. Plus, the 2018 Farm Bill will catapult CBD’s acceptance among all forward.

6 Important Ways CBD Is Helping Our Pets

January 31, 2019 by Staff Writer

6-important-ways-CBD-is-helping-our-pets

At one time, when you heard people talk about pets and cannabis, it would usually go something like “OH NO, my dog just ate my pot – what do I do?” But in 2019, you’re more likely to hear people talk about giving their pets cannabis to help with their medical issues.

The cannabis of which I speak of is CBD oil derived from the hemp plant. CBD is everywhere now – you can find it in gum, ice cream, soda, and more. And now, we’re giving it to our feline friends, our pups, and even to horses to help with a long list of medical conditions. Here are just six ways CBD is helping our pets stay happy and healthy.

CBD Can Reduce Inflammation

Unlike THC that attaches to CB1 receptors triggering psychoactive effects, CBD merely activates CB2 receptors by giving anandamide – which is a self-produced cannabinoid – a boost. Unlike CB1 receptors that reside heavily in the brain, CB2 receptors are found more in the immune system, where their activation promotes proper regulation.

Inflammation is a natural – and often times, beneficial – process, but when poorly regulated it turns on the body and causes issues out the wazoo.

CBD Provides Anxiety Relief

CBD oil for cat anxiety is one of God’s gifts to man. It can help calm them down when they are in their crate for more pleasant vacation trips – and even for less bloody scratches down your arm after vet visits.

And don’t even get us started on how you can use CBD oil for dogs’ anxiety. You may never have to come home to a destroyed house again. Research is showing that it really doesn’t matter where the source of anxiety is coming from, CBD can help.

In fact, CBD is a natural anti-anxiety mediator of THC. So if you find your current marijuana strain is making you nervous or paranoid, try taking some CBD.

CBD Has An Important Role in Cancer and Cancer Treatment

There are a number of studies out there highlighting the potential for cannabinoids like CBD and THC to become common drugs we use to fight pet cancer. However, there isn’t any reason to wait for that as many are already using CBD to help fight cancer.

One of the most difficult aspects of cancer treatment isn’t the disease, but the side effects from the drugs used for treatment: nausea, inflammation, pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, etc.

Not only does this make the whole process more strenuous, but it can also make the body’s fight against cancer more difficult, which can ultimately slow down recovery. CBD has somewhat similar benefits to medical marijuana, which has long been an incredible help in reducing the side effects of conventional cancer treatments. All without causing a high, that is!

CBD has helped pets going through cancer treatment regain their appetite, sleep better, experience less discomfort, fight back against inflammation, and possibly even protect/repair cells.

CBD Benefits Working Animals

Many of our pets dedicate themselves to giving humans a helping hand and work hard for our benefit. When we talk about CBD for pets, we usually think of our cats or dogs, but CBD oil for horses has taken off recently.

CBD can help our working horses with everything from recovery to performance to keeping them calmer during training and work, which can prevent injuries to both you and the horse. The last thing you want on your hands is an anxious 1000+ pound horse… because it really never goes well.

CBD Targets All Forms of Epilepsy

There are a number of dog breeds susceptible to epilepsy, and if you know anything about medical marijuana, you’re likely aware of the role it has played in reducing seizures.

Cannabis – including CBD – is indebted to how it’s helped people with drug-resistant forms of epilepsy. In fact, a few states first legalized CBD for the treatment of epilepsy and nothing else. That alone tells you how much it can help.

The thing that separates cannabis from conventional antiepileptic drugs on the market is its ability to help reduce seizures in all forms of epilepsy. When it comes to using CBD for epilepsy, this is one place it may be just as potent as marijuana. This is because CBD – not THC – has the most antiepileptic properties of any cannabinoid.  

However, while studies show that CBD is the most potent antiepileptic cannabinoid, it’s about half as effective if it’s isolated and not full spectrum. Scientists believe the legal traces of THC allowed in full spectrum CBD (0.3%) helps – even though there isn’t enough to produce a high.

CBD Promotes Homeostasis for Preventive Health

Whenever you hear about how CBD works in the body, you’ll see the word “homeostasis” somewhere in its vicinity. So what is homeostasis and what does CBD have to do with it?

Homeostasis is any process that cells use to regulate, repair, and optimize both their performance and defense against their host’s environment. Everything from extreme temperatures to germs to stress can wear down our cells.

When this happens, the system they’re involved in – like the immune or nervous system – perform poorly, resulting in diseases. The cannabinoids in cannabis mimic select neurotransmitters (endocannabinoids) that trigger receptors that send signals to help cells undergo homeostasis.

Lots of science, but what this tells us is giving CBD to our pets may help them stay healthier, stronger, and live longer.  

Final Thoughts

Remember, this is just six ways CBD can help improve the health of our pets. It’s fantastic to see the stigma surrounding cannabis go away and have the plant become more involved not only in our lives, but in our pets’ lives, too.

It’s important to only give your pet CBD oil with low (less than 1%) to no THC, as dogs and some other animals are sensitive to THC and they can overdose on large amounts.

What is CBD (Cannabidiol)?

January 24, 2019 by Staff Writer Leave a Comment

what-is-CBD-greenroads

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a cannabinoid found in the hemp plant. As we’ve discovered more about the human species as well as the plants that we, we’ve learned of the immense health value that CBD brings to the table. It has quickly become a staple supplement for millions who seek a natural alternative to dangerous pharmaceuticals, alien to nature’s perfect remedies.

Sublingual CBD Oils – also known as CBD Tinctures or CBD Hemp Oil – are the most popular type of CBD products, because of their high bioavailability and rapid absorption. There are many other kinds of products as well, including CBD edibles, CBD topicals, and even CBD-infused Coffee. CBD products have gained immense popularity in health and wellness circles thanks to their natural support of our endocannabinoid system (ECS).

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CBD?

It’s important to note that many of these studies were carried out in vitro (outside the body), or were preclinical in nature, reducing the reliability of the results. However, the chemical antioxidant properties of the CBD molecule, as well as its antiepileptic properties, are well-established in the scientific literature.

While research into the effects of CBD on specific conditions is important, a broader perspective on the relationship between CBD and the human body is necessary to understand how this unique compound works. Interestingly, many of the conditions that are supposedly helped by CBD have no well-understood cause, from acne to Alzheimer’s disease. However, one of the few common denominators between these conditions is the involvement of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in their causes.

The ECS is responsible for setting the baseline activity levels of our immune system and nervous system, which then work to maintain our health. When the ECS falls out of whack, the systems that are regulated by it can begin to malfunction. CBD promotes the normal health and function of the endocannabinoid system, so it’s possible that CBD can help to alleviate the symptoms of conditions that are caused by dysfunction of the endocannabinoid system.

CBD is the subject of thousands of studies and trials, carried out by various institutions to uncover the facts about this dynamic compound and its effects on our bodies. Some of these studies have looked into the effect of CBD on different conditions, including:

  • Acne / comedogenic (pimple-forming) disorders [ Study , Study ]
  • Antibiotic-resistant infection / MRSA [ Study , Study ]
  • Anxiety disorders [ Study ]
  • Apoptosis of malignant neoplasms [ Study ]
  • Arthritis / inflammatory disorders [ Study ]
  • Chronic/neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, migraines [ Study , Study ]
  • Epilepsy and seizure disorders [ Study ]
  • Neurodegenerative disorders (Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis) [ Study ]
  • Oxidative Stress / Free Radicals [ Study ]
  • Substance abuse disorders [ Study ]

HOW ARE CBD PRODUCTS FORMULATED?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of 113 cannabinoids unique to the hemp plant. CBD is produced by the leaves and flowers of female hemp plants. Hemp is defined as all cannabis plants with less than 0.3% THC by weight. Because hemp has such low THC levels, it is non-psychoactive by definition.

While CBD can be extracted from non-hemp varieties of the plant, hemp-derived CBD is less restricted by the government because of its inherently low levels of THC. CBD from hemp is legal for sale in most US states, while CBD products derived from non-hemp varieties can contain noticeable amounts of THC, and are therefore subject to stricter laws and regulations.

CBD and other cannabinoids are produced by the hemp plant because of their unique aromatic and antioxidant activities, which protect the plant from insects, fungus, bacteria, and changes in the environment.

Where does your CBD come from?

All CBD products start out the same way: as an extract from the leaves and flowers of cannabis plants. At Green Roads, we only extract CBD from hemp, defined as any variety of cannabis plant containing less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. Cannabinoids and terpenes are produced by tiny glands on the leaves and flowers of cannabis plants known as trichomes. The compounds produced by these trichomes give cannabis both its rich aroma and its nutraceutical effects.

How is your CBD extracted?

In order to isolate CBD from the trichomes, Green Roads uses supercritical CO2 extraction, the safest and most efficient extraction method currently available.

How does CO2 extraction work?

Carbon dioxide is passed through the plant material at a very specific temperature and pressure. Carbon dioxide, which is normally a gas at (or above) room temperature, can be pressurized until it becomes so dense that it takes on some of the properties of a liquid while still maintaining the fluid dynamics of a gas. In this state, CO2 is known as a supercritical fluid.

Why do you use CO2 extraction?

CBD oil CO2 extraction works extremely well because each compound in cannabis can only be extracted by CO2 at a unique pressure and temperature combination, which makes it easy to control which compounds are extracted and which are left behind.

What makes Green Roads CBD so pure?

As CBD is isolated from the plant material and exits the high-pressure environment inside the extraction machine, all of the CO2 evaporates, because it’s no longer at a supercritical pressure. This leaves behind a solvent-free extract containing only the purest select phytocannabinoids and terpenes.

IS CBD (CANNABIDIOL) LEGAL?

Because CBD is non-psychoactive, it is treated differently than other products that contain detectable levels of the psychoactive cannabinoid, THC.

In addition, the FDA recently approved Epidiolex – an oral-mucosal spray produced by GW Pharmaceuticals with CBD as its active ingredient – for use in the treatment of intractable seizure disorders. This THC-free product set a new precedent for the medical value of CBD.

In 2014, President Obama signed the Farm Bill of 2014 into law. This law contained a section that removed hemp from Schedule 1 of the Controlled Substances Act. It also created a legal structure that made cultivation and research of hemp legal in states that wanted to initiate “Pilot Research Programs” into the cultivation and marketing of hemp and hemp-derived products.

While Green Roads complies with the Farm Bill of 2014 and all other federal regulations, laws in some states are ever-changing. For more info about the legality of hemp-derived CBD products in your state, see the map below.

what-is-CBD-greenroads-img-1

WHAT IS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF CBD FOR ME?

While most supplements have a single recommended dose, CBD is different. The amount of CBD you take depends on your doctor’s recommendations and your own research into how CBD will work for your unique needs. In general, it’s smart to start with a medium dose of CBD. This way, you can increase or decrease the dose as needed. In addition, it’s recommended to start with one half ML (half a dropper) of CBD oil, because you can always take more if needed.

As always, consult with your doctor or a healthcare professional before adding CBD to your supplement regimen.

DIFFERENT KINDS OF CBD PRODUCTS

what-is-CBD-greenroads-img-2There are several different kinds of CBD-infused products that are consumed in different ways for different purposes.

The most popular type of CBD product is sublingual CBD oils and tinctures, which include CBD isolate formulated into an oily base so that it can be dropped under the tongue. These products are ideal for rapid absorption and high bioavailability.

Another popular type of CBD product is edible snacks, beverages, and capsules, which can be swallowed like any other food or pill. These products are perfect for people who don’t need a high dose of CBD, or who are more comfortable with a traditional method of consumption like swallowing rather than sublingual administration.

Topical CBD products are ideal for local application to an affected area of skin, muscle, or joints. CBD applied topically tends to stay concentrated in the area where it was applied, unlike edible and sublingual CBD, which spreads throughout the entire body via the bloodstream.

CBD OIL what-is-CBD-greenroads-img-3

CBD Oil refers to CBD-infused products that contain CBD suspended in an oily base, such as vegetable glycerin, hempseed oil, or another plant-derived oil. Sublingual oils are ideal because they allow for rapid absorption of CBD through the membrane under your tongue directly into your bloodstream. CBD Oils are available in both low and high doses, and droppers built into the cap make it easy to measure your proper dose. CBD Oils are the most popular kind of CBD product thanks to their ease of use and rapid effects.

CBD EDIBLES

what-is-CBD-greenroads-img-4CBD edibles are foods and beverages infused with CBD for oral consumption, and they are immensely popular thanks to their delicious taste as well as their soothing effects. From CBD fruit rolls to CBD-infused coffee, CBD edibles include a wide array of shapes, dosages, and mouthwatering flavors. CBD edibles offer an easy and discreet way to never forget your daily dose of CBD. Besides their fun and fruity taste and appearance, Green Roads CBD Edibles offer all the benefits of CBD in a convenient 30-day supply so you’ll never run out whether you need a short-term fix or long-term relief.

CBD PAIN CREAMwhat-is-CBD-greenroads-img-5

People looking to buy CBD creams will find the most effective and aromatic CBD lotions at Green Roads World. In order to produce the highest quality CBD muscle rub available on the market, Green Roads obtains CBD from US-grown hemp using CO2 supercritical extraction. CBD topicals are highly effective because CBD tends to remain in the application area when applied topically, as opposed to sublingual or edible products that enter the bloodstream and diffuse throughout the body. Green Roads CBD Pain Cream is a unique and potent CBD product, artfully crafted by a licensed pharmacist with more than twenty years of compounding experience.

CBD DAILY DOSES

what-is-CBD-greenroads-img-6Finding the perfect CBD Oil daily dosage is now easier than ever, thanks to CBD Daily Doses, from Green Roads. Cannabinoids like CBD interact with our body’s endocannabinoid system to produce their effects. This network of chemicals signalers and receptors is responsible for maintaining homeostasis of both body and mind. While it’s important to balance your endocannabinoid system with CBD, it’s just as important to balance your daily schedule, and CBD Daily Doses make it easy and simple to do just that.

Finding Software Solutions in the Cannabis Industry

June 6, 2017 by Staff Writer Leave a Comment

finding-software-solutions-in-the-cannabis-industry-nextec

There is no doubt that computer software is playing a major role in the legal marijuana industry, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. An avalanche of information and requirements come with entering the cannabis industry, just as it does with any other industry. It is entirely too much for the human brain to know and catalog. That is why we rely so much on computers and their capabilities in our everyday lives; being successful in the legal marijuana industry is no different.

One of the companies at the forefront of providing software solutions to those in this new and uncertain industry is the NexTec Group. In business since 1994, NexTec has been helping companies connect their systems, update out-of-date software, ensure compliance and improve forecasts for over 20 years. They recently took their expertise to the cannabis industry.

“Based on our expertise in food, pharma, nutra, and traditional growers (like hops and nuts), where traceability and strong compliance are a must, we decided to look into the cannabis industry as a possible new market for NexTec,” Catherine Lindner, Director of Marketing at NexTec, told The Marijuana Times. “One of the members of our management team met other executives in the cannabis industry to learn about the issues they were facing and gaps in technology where NexTec’s expertise could help. From these conversations, NexTec determined that our expertise with food and beverage, growers and process manufacturing can be transferred to the business needs of cannabis cultivators and processors. It was then that NexTec decided to make a big investment and develop a specific ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solution for the grower side of the cannabis industry.”

Some of NexTec’s ERP solutions include barcode and RFID tracking of plants, integration into state regulatory systems, 280e cost capturing and a “product recall” add-on that can “identify in 10 minutes where that material (from a bad crop) was used. It will then help identify and quarantine all related materials and create recall communications that can be sent to customers and partners if need be.”

There is a mountain of compliance issues when it comes to the marijuana industry. In many cases, record-keeping and information flow must be accurate and air-tight; there is little room for error. If you are going to be a force in the cannabis industry and plan on sticking around, your software must be able to keep up.

Accelerating Your Growth

June 2, 2017 by Staff Writer Leave a Comment

accelerating-your-growth-AGS

Anyone who has ever grown cannabis indoors knows how difficult it can be. If you’re not lucky enough to be able to grow huge plants in a greenhouse or outdoors in a place with great climate for most of the year – like northern California – then you’ve likely dealt with the myriad of issues that arise when you take something meant to be done easily outdoors and bring it inside.

There are many reasons to grow cannabis indoors, climate and security being chief among them. Indoor growing means year-round growing and plants grown inside a secure building are so much easier to keep away from potential thieves.

Fortunately, technological advancements in cultivation are making it easier to grow large amounts of plants indoors in ways that are cost-effective but that do not sacrifice quality. And helping growers build cost-efficient spaces for growing is exactly why companies like Accelerated Growth Solutions exist. According to their website, AGS “provides the best climate control equipment in the cannabis industry.  We not only offer the most efficient systems, but unrivaled precision in environmental control based on temperature, humidity, and vapor pressure differential.”

AGS systems can automate every aspect of the climate plants exist and thrive in. They have water-cooled systems that are up to 50% more efficient than air-cooled systems, as well as pre-fabricated “Central Utility Plants” which are a “a controlled, single source environment” that AGS can provide “in a matter of months rather than the years it may take to engineer and construct a field built system integrated into the building.”

The environment your cannabis is grown in is critically important to the success of your crop. Stability is key, and systems from AGS provide that stability. They provide not only the products, but also the know-how and can guide you step-by-step through the process of growing top quality cannabis in an indoor environment.
