Clone Transplant · Weeks 1–6

Springseason.

March light returns through the glazing — seedlings and rooted clones transferred to raised beds as DLI climbs past 20 mol/m²/day. Root zones stay at 68°F while ambient tracks the sun.

Vegetative Explosion · Weeks 7–14

Summerseason.

June through August: 16+ hours of usable light, DLI peaks at 55–65 mol/m²/day. Ridgeline vents open at 6am, horizontal airflow fans maintain the VPD curve as canopy fills wall to wall.

Harvest Peak · Weeks 15–22

Autumnseason.

September shortens the photoperiod naturally. Flower sites swell as amber pistils overtake white. Trichome density rivals the best indoor runs — at a fraction of the energy bill.

Moved two of our Colorado facilities to Canopy glass in 2023. Energy bills dropped 74% in the first full cycle. Trichome density on our OG Kush held — lab results were within 3% of our indoor numbers.

Craft grows live or die on terpene expression. I was skeptical — everyone says greenhouse is a compromise. It's not. The full-spectrum sun actually improved our limonene numbers. We're not going back.

As an MSO running six states, energy cost is an existential question. Canopy's VPD control package gave us the same dialed environment we had indoors. The ridgeline vent automation is genuinely impressive.
