[AUDIO only] Office Hours Ep. 154: How Clout Kings Runs Consistent Cannabis Cultivation Across 8 States
How do you grow consistent, top-shelf cannabis across eight state markets at once? Cian Sullivan and Jason Van Leuven sit down with Sequoia Anderson and Kenny Keith of Clout Kings, a multi-state cannabis cultivation brand running roughly one facility per state across eight states.
They get into the systems behind consistency at scale: why shared monitoring is non-negotiable for multi-state quality control, how to write SOPs general enough to deploy anywhere while still hitting target results, the cooling and dehumidification red flags they look for before taking on a facility, and the bud rot risk that shows up when you pack more plants into a retrofitted room. Plus managing a 60-plus cultivar library through the candy wave, the tradeoffs of tissue culture vs live mothers, and why putting a dollar figure on retention and downtime is the operator's best tool for getting buy-in.
A practical listen whether you run one room or many.
