Perfect Blends know everybody’s idea of perfect is different. They believe those differences are perfect. In fact, it’s the differences in cannabis strains and their compounds that - when blended together - deliver a new kind of perfection they're excited about. At Perfect, they simplify the cannabis “buying and trying” experience by intentionally designing unique, premium products that are named to clearly communicate what’s inside. Each blend has been formulated from multiple strains of 100% cannabis and cannabis oil and informed by over a decade of research on how terpenes and monoterpenes work together to create distinct effects. The end result is a new type of infused flower product that has a consistently fresh from harvest taste and full entourage effect. Perfect hopes you’ll love and come to rely on their blends to help you create your perfect moments when you feel the way you want to feel.
Eco Growtech With CEO Shawn Piernitzki today on Hempresent with Vivian McPeak only on Cannabis Radio. Shawn has a broad spectrum of experience from residential and commercial construction to his technical training and his experience as an instrumentation technician. Growing up in the Slocan Valley nestled in the heart of the Kootenays, Shawn grew up immersed in the legacy cannabis world. The valley was a hotspot for black market craft BC bud and as Shawn grew up he began gaining more exposure to friends and friends parents who grew. This is when Shawn started to become more aware of the processes and how things worked within the industry including growing methodology, growing systems, and growing equipment. Looking back now that Shawn has years of industry experience, and has witnessed the equipment & technology evolve, it has been very clear to see the inefficiencies and “cave man-nature” of growing processes and the different types of equipment used.
