“OUR MISSION IS TO DO
THE BEST WE CAN TO
ENSURE THE SUCCESS
OF OUR USER BASE AND
ADAPT TO INDUSTRY
CONDITIONS AS NEEDED.”
What is your company culture and what
makes you different?
We consider ourselves advocates for the cannabis industry.
Our sales reps are experienced growers who help other
growers achieve success in the garden (send us photos, tell
us what’s up, and we will help diagnose problems or talk
grow talk). Try this level of personal engagement with the
leading brands and see what help they are! Our guys rock!
Is Dakine 420 launching any products
in the near future?
Yes! We have a bloom boost we call “Shock and Awe,” as
well as powdered pH up-and-down, a new foliar product,
and a cal/mag supplement we introduced in 2018.
“Shock and Awe” sounds impressive.
That’s what the Mad Scientist told me to get ready for, and
I thought it was a great name. When he developed our
microbial root powder, he told me it would grow roots on
a bowling ball, which I thought was a bold statement. It
lived up to its name (just ask Harry, my bowling ball).
What words of wisdom can you share about
the industry as you see it?
As a business owner, it’s about honesty, integrity, and hard
work. We want our retailers and growers to succeed with
our products. People misjudge how difficult the cannabis
industry can be. From banking and compliance issues, to
oversupplying the market, a lot of people can and do get
hurt financially. We see firsthand the struggles people in the
industry face as it evolves. Our mission is to do the best we
can to ensure the success of our user base and adapt to
industry conditions as needed. As I stated earlier, we are
advocates for the industry.
