  The Emerald Club

  Oct 2022 - Aug 2024

  Operations Manager

  Last fall I moved to Thailand, where weed was recently decriminalized. I received a work permit, then I lived locally and worked on site every day as a general manager of all things production related. I purchased supplies, inventoried, and taught new workers. I germinated seeds, maintained healthy moms, cloned, defoliated, trained, harvested, bucked, trimmed, dried and cured... everything. It was a true test of the skills I learned from my seniors in Cali and Massachusetts, and I am proud to say I started with nothing and ended with large fragrant flowers that maintained their appearance, smell, and potency 6 months to a year after harvest. There were hiccups as with any new operation, but overall things went satisfyingly well and Thai growers + consumers often noted the unusual stickiness and unique fragrance of a lot of my weed. I'm proud of the amount I've learned in a relatively short time, and I love sharing. Show less
