Higher Times is here. A High Times series — fun, unfiltered conversations with the people building the cannabis industry from the ground up. Growers, brand founders, equipment makers, the people behind the plant. All hosted by Kyle Kushman — advocate, educator, and journalist of the plant.
Episode 2: Soil scientist Scott Skamnes drives out to Kyle's indoor garden, Tenchalla, and reads it like a chart — green stems, a hand squeeze test, and why the purple striping everyone blames on cal-mag is usually something else entirely in living soil. Then it's California in a convertible, a New York style pepperoni pizza in Kyle's Kitchen, and a conversation that lands on the one thing Scott's data sets can't measure: the vibes at the farm. By the end he's drawing the oxygen scale — aerobic on one side, anoxic on the other, and the facultative anaerobic zone in the middle where every pathogen you've ever fought is waiting. Russet mites. Root aphids. Powdery mildew. Thrips. And on the far end, what he calls fish stories.
