Michigan is one of the toughest cannabis markets in the country, and Steve Kado has been through nearly every version of it.
From the legacy market to commercial cultivation, white labeling, and building LegaSea Farms into a brand carried in 150+ stores, Steve has learned that growing great flower is only part of the equation.
In Episode 46, we talk about surviving market compression, building relationships that move product, and finding the balance between culture and business.
Inside the grow, Steve breaks down under-canopy lighting, HPS vs LED, Rockwool, crop steering, substrate monitoring, and why yield has become one of the biggest levers for staying competitive.
We also get into THC and terpene testing, blind smoke tests, rosin, consumer education, and a question the industry keeps coming back to: are we measuring quality the right way?
This one is about adapting without losing what got you into the game in the first place.

Nephs was amongst some of the best rosin brands smoking in southeastern Michigan for a pretty good period of time. That Bahama Mama, Mamas Cookies, Hawaiian Fanta, and Papaya Cake were some of my favorites. Still got a couple Nephs dab tools 😭 cheers to big neph, always wondered what happened to the OG gocrazyhalooba 👏
Shutting down the thca market is going to hurt growers that are serious but don't have capital to be a big grower like y'all. I don't think it's gonna be good imo
Lots of Christians that are real in life love cannabis and realize it's much better for them than pharmaceuticals. Overconsumption can come with anything.
Would you recommend Athena for someone with a 4×8 and a couple quality LED lights? If so,what would you recommend? I'm looking for something new as Nectar For The Gods is no more. Thanks in advance.
I admit that, loud and proud, I copied everything from Jungle Boys and they were huge inspiration and life changing for me, forever grateful for standards Ivan have had set up!

I’ve developed a canopy spacing technique that reduces your cost of labor BY FAR. Completely skip gutting and defoliation with this technique while averaging 120g/sqft accross 5 rooms, 40 strains, 3k plants.
