Read Time:2 Minute, 9 Second



This is just one of those episodes. If you love weed, whether you’re in the industry or just a fan, you can’t miss a second of this extended conversation with one of the real harbingers of the culture and preservers of the plant.

Blackleaf is joined by the mythological man behind the curtain of cannabis, Kevin Jodrey @kevinjodrey, creator of Port Royal, owner of Wonderland Nursery, and co-founder of The Ganjier.

Sit down and strap in for a longer episode that doesn’t skip a beat on moments of invaluable game-dropping, never-before-heard strain lore, run-ins with law enforcement, traveling the world for weed, certifying Ganjiers, and so much more.

If you’ve ever wondered where the birth of high-CBD strains began or what herb looks like in the wild countryside of Afghanistan while hunting genetics with Landrace Mafia, you’ll be on the edge of your seat for this entire chaotic ride.

Kevin Jodrey is hands-down one of the most well-known and respected growers out of Humboldt County. He’s also an internationally respected expert on the plant, accredited for improving and forwarding the modern cannabis movement. On top if it all, he’s spoken at a slew of universities, judged the Emerald Cup multiple times, and appeared on National Geographic and A&E to speak on cannabis education.

You’ll hear Blackleaf ask countless questions on every smoker’s mind, and Kevin candidly weighs in on topics such as the THCa wave, nicotine addictions fueling the candy wave currently sweeping the industry, how the average grower can preserve their genetics, why tissue culture isn’t always done right, and the fact that real Sour may be gone forever.

Kevin was literally at the epicenter of the “Green Rush” with seemingly uneding stories he riffs on from Humboldt back in the day throughout this incredibly special episode of the pod. Today, he’s at the forefront of the “Clean Rush” aka the sustainable movement of regenerating land naturally through cannabis cultivation…among countless other projects that span the globe.

It’s hard to concisely put into words all of the crazy insight, free game, jaw-dropping stories of hunting genetics and fighting law enforement, as well as genuine life and relationship advice that you can absorb from this episode. So, simply put—light one up, kick back, and lock in.

  6. As a Pakistani i can remember I used play in Marijuana as a 7 year old child lol but we used to make a drink called bhang drink I obviously never drank it then being so young but I did recently and it put me on ass lol

  13. This interview is Epic as Kevin Jodrey can and will Always take it there, especially when not interrupted and just Flow!!! Outstanding job Black Leaf & Kev!!! Thank you guys!!! 🔥🔥🔥

  20. I had a theory that cannabis land race strains grow to suit the specific needs of the people inhabiting the area. I'm glad to hear him mention epigenetics.

  25. It was never legal to grow weed in the Netherlands as far as I know, i live in Texas now but grew up and lived in Amsterdam for 32 years growing weed for over 15 years there. It was illegal and very dangerous even though I was a connected soldier.

  28. I think another aspect or something that plays into which flavors are chosen by who, is the maturation of ones pallette. Which is affected by whats available and what works where he is. But how experienced with cannabis flavors is a variable for sure.

  40. Tell ya something.i saw iron acumulations in root nodules in clay where plant previously was growing and used the clay in a coloidal rootdrench but it was phenomenal to see how much iron was in the spaces where root nodules once were. So biological was concentrating it in tge root nodules for whatever processes you can only tgeorise on. But it woukd mostly disolve even tho you could see it oxidised alittle it broke right down into a fine fine component and boosted leaf thicknes celluar thicknesses and flattened out the leaf deep dark colouration .how amazing to see iron do what it did and how it wad part of root nodules.im guesding dandelion rizome or some othr wild weed roots or rizome.take a pick. Amazing. Boring i know but wen you consider whats actually biological possible it opens otger doors of perception without psylosybin lol
