This episode dives into the future of cannabis R&D through real-world, crowdsourced product testing.
Chris from Ghostbudsters joins us to talk about running Athena Pro Line at 3.0 EC, using Fade in the final 7–9 days, and testing new formulations through Athena’s grower-led research program.
Alongside Jay from R&D, Chris has been evaluating new PK formulas, Smokeability-focused products, and upcoming releases with controlled, repeatable runs.
The testing showed serious gains: more yield, higher THC, increased terpene content, and overall flower quality that checked every box. More importantly, this conversation highlights what the industry needs more of: transparency, honesty, real data, and growers willing to share both wins and losses.
Crowdsourced R&D is helping us learn faster, improve products, and build the future of cultivation with the people actually running the rooms.
