I never thought I'd end up as a cannabis grower, but life has a funny way of leading us down interesting paths. It all began in my early twenties when I made the move from Montana to California. I was always fascinated with marijuana and I figured what better place to learn about it than in the heart of the cannabis industry.

I was lucky enough to work with some amazing growers who taught me all about the ins and outs of cultivating cannabis. From picking the right strains to lighting and soil, I quickly became obsessed with every aspect of growing.

After a couple of years, I decided to head back to Montana and try my hand at growing in a legal setting. It wasn't easy at first, as the regulations were strict and the competition was fierce, but I was determined to make it work.

The last five years have been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. There's something incredibly rewarding about watching a tiny seedling grow into a thriving plant that can then be used to help others. And, of course, there's the satisfaction of knowing that I'm doing something I love for a living.

Looking back on my journey, I realize that getting into cannabis growing was one of the best decisions I've ever made. It's not just a job, it's a way of life. And while there have been challenges along the way, I wouldn't have it any other way. If you're thinking about getting into cannabis growing yourself, my advice would be to go for it. Follow your passion and see where it takes you. You might just end up surprising yourself.
