This episode we are joined by RARExtracts, Colorado homegrower and Licensed Oklahoma Extractor.

RARE got his start on the western slopes, eventually establishing himself in BHO and live sauces before setting up a licensed facility in Oklahoma to produce extracts for the medical market, including RSO.

He and I first met at Secret Sesh at City Hall in Denver and reconnected after I moved out to Longmont over growing and hash.

In this episode, we talk about:

* His journey as a hobby grower

* The Evolution of extracts

* Electricity in The Grow (And When to Hire an Electrician)

* And advice to other growers out there.

And more…

This episode we are joined by Nick Sclafani, home grower out of Northern Colorado.

Nick started growing way back in 2002, legally since 2008, but took a break for a while, and kicked things back off this year with an outdoor effort.

He and I first met through LinkedIn, realizing we lived a few miles apart, and started meeting up for seshes and brews around town.

I’ve been keeping an eye on Nick’s plants since he first posted about his return, and I’m excited to see what harvest brings him.

In this episode, we talk about:

* His journey as a hobby grower

* The decision to dust off the grow and come out of retirement

* Normalizing the plant through cultivation

* Growing Cannabis With His Son

* And advice to other growers out there.
