Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) stand as the backbone of consistency and efficiency. However, let's pause to reflect on their limitations and the untapped potential lying beyond these structured guidelines. SOPs provide a roadmap, but they cannot fully capture the nuanced dance between a cultivator and their plants. The cannabis journey is an art, not just a science. It's about sensing the subtle shifts in the environment, understanding the unique language of each strain, and adapting in real-time. Consider SOPs as your foundation, not your ceiling. They offer structure, but the magic happens when you infuse your expertise, passion, and intuition into the cultivation process. Nature is dynamic, and cannabis is a living canvas that responds to the personalized touch of a skilled cultivator. Embrace the limitations of SOPs as invitations to explore, experiment, and innovate. There's a world beyond the checkboxes and protocols—a realm where your intuition becomes a guide, and each plant becomes a testament to your craftsmanship. In the vibrant tapestry of cannabis cultivation, SOPs are threads, but you are the weaver. Let your expertise transcend the boundaries, and let your connection with the plants breathe life into every leaf. Remember, it's not just about growing cannabis; it's about cultivating an experience, a story, and a legacy. So, fellow cultivators, as you navigate the world of SOPs, let them be your stepping stones to something greater. Cultivate with wisdom, passion, and an understanding that transcends the confines of protocols. In this dance with nature, let your artistry shine, and may your cannabis journey be as extraordinary as the plants you nurture. #cannabis #cannabisindustry #cannabiscommunity

This is I’ve always written SOP‘s to be the ranges and the basic skeleton and what I do, however, I will always say something to the effect of the final decision or call would be up to the role of the grower or the manager of the greenhouse because there are times where are off outside of the norm, and we have to do something different

5moAll the newbs think it's competition, taxation that is killing profits, the fact is its their s.o.p. I've grown award winning cannabis for 3 cents a gram the last 12 years. Profits are made in the process, not the object
