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 3: Kyle welcomes Lance H — better known as Blackleaf — into his kitchen for a spatchcocked roast chicken and a spice rub he made up himself. Two hours at 350. Foolproof. Then it's shoes off and into Tenchalla, the garden Kyle actually named. It's his third run in Bio365 and the first time he's ever amended it, using the exact mineral weights Scott Skamnes calculated from last episode's soil sample. Eighth week of bloom, not a yellow leaf in sight, a monocrop of Strawberry Cough.
After the smoke break and lunch, Lance breaks down why breeding needs its own room or a full stagger, why genetics is the name of the game, why there are bugs inside bagged soil and coco before it ever reaches you, how fans from four angles hold his leaf temperature within one degree of air temp, and why he kills the fans at night. Then the sniper's rule he applies to a sick garden — aim small, miss small — and the Colorado run where free genetics taught him that they come with friends. His verdict after two decades: growing is fairly easy. Staying 100% clean is really hard.
