Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: • [00:00] Introduction • [2:30] Autumn Karcey debunks the myth that growing high-quality cannabis at home is easy • [4:20] How Autumn began cultivating cannabis under California’s Proposition 215 • [6:31] Autumn’s early lessons from growing cannabis • [12:00] Key environmental and sustainability considerations in facility design • [16:03] The origin story behind Artemis CoPack and insights into its large-scale drying and processing facilities • [20:48] Marketing strategies and over-emphasized trends in cannabis cultivation • [27:48] Innovation, growth, and regulations: the future of the cannabis industry • [30:54] How Autumn markets and differentiates her cannabis brands In this episode… With public perception, inconsistent regulations, and a lack of consumer education impacting the cannabis industry, building a cultivation brand seems risky. How can you produce high-quality cannabis at scale, stand out in an oversaturated market, and maintain sustainable practices? As a cannabis cultivation and facility design expert, Autumn Karcey emphasizes experience, innovation, and practicality. To produce high-quality cannabis at scale, brands must maintain environmental precision — from proper HVAC planning to climate-controlled drying facilities — and adopt automation to increase efficiency without sacrificing quality. Autumn also recommends leveraging authentic storytelling, maintaining hands-on control of your brand presence, and building strong industry relationships. Additionally, brands should educate consumers on dosing and terpenes, shifting the focus away from THC percentages and toward more personalized, effective experiences.
