With more than 30 years of experience as a cultivator, awarded 13 High Times Cannabis Cups, Kushman has a deep understanding of individual strains, seeking to increase flavor and potency through all-natural techniques, harvesting at the peak of ripeness and expertly curing his buds for the smoothest smoke possible.
