on our latest Trade To Black Podcast, “Big” Mike Straumietis from Advanced Nutrients hops on with us again to discuss the challenges the cannabis industry will face in 2025 from a cultivation standpoint. He emphasizes the need for companies to focus on quality over quantity.
With Amendment 3 failing to pass in Florida for Adult Use Cannabis, many Florida operators, especially big MSOs, are showing more concerns for pricing versus quality. However, he believes there is a market for quality based on the science that Advanced Nutrients provides.
Advanced Nutrients has been elevating cannabis cultivation through education and best-in-class products for over 40 years. They have examples of raising THC levels by 42% for some companies in the cannabis industry. Genetics and environment are crucial when developing a cannabis plant.
Big Mike explains that most cultivators are very controlling, but those who are self-aware and know how to work with company executives will succeed. Advanced Nutrients aims to elevate grow operations for both public and private cannabis companies.
He also discusses how companies like Bayer, Cargill, and Monsanto are entering the industry from an innovation and genetics perspective.
Plus, we talk about cannabis PACs and their lobbying efforts for cannabis reform, including the importance of aligning with other PACs like Big Agriculture, Crypto, and the NRA to pass SAFE Banking and provide much-needed banking for the cannabis industry. This is especially important when engaging with the Trump administration.
