In the sixth episode of Bluntly Us, Deena and Ian talk with the Founder and CEO of Clade 9, Dave Holmes, about his journey from a community college professor to a large-scale indoor cannabis cultivator, complete with raids, fleeing the state and big lifestyle changes. 

David Holmes has 20 years of breeding and cannabis cultivation experience. He has managed large scale regulated cultivation facilities in California, Nevada, and Arizona. Clade9 recently launched their flagship 17,000sqft cultivation facility in Los Angeles and will be expanding to Massachusetts in 2022.
