S4 EP1 The Most Sustainable Cannabis Brand In Cannabis | Talking Trees

Our Website: www.growingexposed.com/
Check out the episode here: growingexposed.com/season-4-e...
In the lush landscapes of Humboldt, California, where the winds whisper secrets to the towering trees and the air is laced with the aroma of possibility, a story of innovation and dedication unfolds. In a captivating video, Justin takes us on an extraordinary journey through the heart of the cannabis cultivation industry, led by none other than Craig Nejedly, a true pioneer whose passion for cannabis has spanned over two and a half decades.
The adventure begins in an unexpected location - the back of a skate shop - where Craig Nejedly’s cannabis cultivation journey was sown. Over 25 years ago, he started in a one-bedroom apartment in San Francisco, in a time when the industry was far from refined. As Craig reminisces, “This was like 1998; we didn’t even know carbon filters existed.” The unfiltered honesty of those early days, where the scent of the plant would envelop whole buildings, reveals just how far the industry has come.
From those humble beginnings, Craig’s journey has led him to become a trailblazer in both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Nestled behind his skate shop is one of his legacy gardens, a room that has remained hidden since 2010, a testament to the pre-legalization era. As Justin guides us through this once-secret operation, the legacy of those who paved the way becomes tangible.
But Craig’s influence reaches beyond cultivation. He’s an entrepreneur with a vision rooted in sustainability, a founder of the Satori Movement - a brand synonymous with pure awareness and living in the present moment. As he describes it, “It means pure awareness and a sense of enlightenment, but it is kinda like that mindful flow of just doing something… not thinking about it, and it just happens.” This ethos seeps into his cannabis endeavors, where innovation meets conscientiousness.
The journey continues into a cutting-edge production and processing facility, where technology and automation blend seamlessly with the legacy of the land. In a world where automation reigns, the symphony of machinery crafting exceptional products for Craig’s renowned line, Talking Trees, is a sight to behold. Here, the fusion of tradition and modernity is striking, a tribute to an industry in evolution.
Yet, it’s within the confines of a frigid shipping container that true artistry is witnessed. Here, a team of individuals, bundled against the cold, engage in the age-old practice of sifting and washing fresh frozen to create bubble hash. While it may seem rudimentary, this delicate dance of technique and passion is the embodiment of a craft that has stood the test of time.
As the journey winds its way to a remote farm, the untouched beauty of Humboldt’s landscapes unfolds. This region, with its rugged roads and breathtaking vistas, has long been a haven for those seeking a simpler existence. Since the 1960s and 70s, people have flocked to these hills, finding freedom in living off the land, cultivating not just crops but a way of life. The remoteness offers privacy, the elevation unveils awe-inspiring panoramas, and the entire experience fosters a deeper connection to nature.
As the sun sets on this remarkable day, the admiration for Craig Nejedly and his dedication to the plant is undeniable. Through this video journey, Justin has offered us a glimpse into the life of a pioneer who has left an indelible mark on the cannabis cultivation industry. As we bid adieu to this captivating exploration, one thing is clear - the growth of cannabis extends beyond cultivation; it’s a testament to human innovation, sustainability, and an unbreakable bond with nature.
Until the next adventure, the grow has been exposed, and the legacy lives on.

This is an incredible episode. I dont live in that area anymore but I did grow up there in the 60s, 70s and 80s. I remember all the secrecy and self proclaimed outlaws back then. I go back and visit every year and its so amazing to see how things have changed. I really miss PNW! Especially Humboldt Co.

[@assog5737]

I've watched thousands of videos like this. And this man is the only person that grows with basically the same philosophy I do. I've been enjoying and growing cannabis for over 50 years. Inroors for the last 20 years. And like he said " I want to grow buds, not stems". Then he says " I have 40 plants in a 4x4 area". I grow 46 plants in a 3x3 area. In the SOG. Then he says that he puts his plants into 12/12 as fast as he can. That is a very important trick. That I have been doing for decades. In fact, I clone everything I grow. In my cloners my clones are only 6 to 7 inchs tall once they have rooted. I put those clones straight into 12/22. No veg time. The trick is is to use the first 2 weeks stretch time. As your veg time. Like I said my clones are 6 to 7 inchs tall when I put them into 12/12. In 2 weeks they are anywhere between two and half to three and a half feet tall. I don't know if any of you noticed. All the bar tags on his plants. But every legal grower has to have a bar code on every single plant they grow. And they have to keep all the information on that plant, updated in the states computer. Thats is only one of the ignorant things that these states make these growers do. And why I didn't go legal. Because I had all the money backers I needed. But I couldn't make myself do all the ignorant things that the state wants these growers do. And actually I'm doing way better than I was, before it came legal for recreational. Anyway much respect to this man. Take care all and enjoy.

[@markrich3271]

Our country is huge. Not every state adopts legalization. Most don't actually. Federally it's still Illegal with no end insight of legalization. They want to reschedule it to a less harmful narcotic but a narcotic still.

Great episode, Have a question for you why are stationary fans down the middle better than oscillating fans? I'm doin my thing here in Thailand and have kind of a mix with my fans. Oscillating ones down the middle any input? Humidity here fluctuates drastically in the greenhouse so I'm learning to adapt. Five years of practice and soil is on its sixth season. 48 years "learning" my trade between Cali and here. Thanks again, 🌴🙏🌴

[@bozbozman1575]

It's about air flow. The air has a direction so exhaust is more efficient. "Very short answer"😊

[@olddudegrowsorganically6400]

@@bozbozman1575 Thank you my Brother appreciate your reply. Let me make sure I understand what your saying...."better to pull the air through the greenhouse than just moving it around."

My plants were picked up from Colorado and then planted organicly in the middle of a 40 acre lot. I used 1 acre. Put in a well, irrigation, lic. farmer..... i hurt my knee on a dirt track and i could hardly walk... thought i was going to need a operation. The plants were starting to bud, so I rubbed my knee all day as I was working in the field. THE NEXT DAY.... I WAS 1OO PERCENT HEALED. THUS , I BELEIVE!!! PEACE!!!!!!!!!
