Big fans of your work! We’re GreenDeagle, and we’d love to partner with you. 👏
never thought id see plant cell tech sitting across from Athena this soon lol
Wow 5k for 3 days. Holy moly
Thanks for the interview. Can´t wait for the new TC media!
It's a beautiful thing.. 💚✌️💪 I need to get a kit. The old school bubba I have and the purple axle grease that tastes like licorice needs to be put up.
This is an awesome interview! TC is the way to go!
I hate this American way of thinking that education in universities is useless.
You can't compare years of studies with a 3 days class.
The best you can learn in 3 days is how to follow a protocol.
In 3 days you don't even come close to understanding one of the many scientific subjects that are behind TC (biotechnology, botany, chemistry just to name a few).
And as proof that you also know that, you provide consultancies after the class (which is fine).
I respect your mission to introduce people to TC, but don't say "universities want you convinced that education is fundamental to do this job".
A university career teaches you how to work with a scientific approach, you teach how to follow your protocol. Those are two completely different things.
hell yea PCT for the Win
great info guys would love to do this with all my haze but deff out of my budget !!!😂😂😂
