#42 THC W/ GoodeKind Hemp Kayla & Flip
Derek Cross Interviews The GoodeKind Hemp Company Founders Kayla & Flip:Kayla and Flip have been best friends since 2006 and became family when Flip married Kayla’s sister in 2010. They have created lasting memories throughout the years, from yo-yoing in parades in Ireland to jumping off of cliffs into the ocean in Hawaii. The two have grown together in their friendship and in that amount of time, Kayla and Flip realized that they not only share a passion for cannabis products, but they also share a passion for serving the marginalized members of our society. Goodekind organically grew out of these shared passions. Kayla and Flip began scouring hemp farms across the country with the mission of finding high-quality and organic hemp products. They were eager to make the type of products that they would use themselves and proudly give to their families.https://goodekind.com/www.thehempchat.com

#40 THC W/ ALICE MOON Understanding CHS
Derek Cross chats with Alice Moon about her bout with CHS;Alice Moon is a cannabis entrepreneur living in Los Angeles, California. Her career in cannabis started in 2011 as a trimmer and budtender. While working at a dispensary, Moon wrote edible reviews to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions. Her blog led to edible sales at the dispensary tripling. Moon quickly discovered that consumers with dietary restrictions had trouble finding edibles that suited their needs, so she spent 2 years working on a solution to this problem. In 2017 she launched Swallow, The World’s Largest Edible Directory, which was coined “The Yelp of Edibles”. The web app helped consumers find the right edible for them based on dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free, sugar free, etc), location, and reviews. Swallow was nominated Best Tech at the Dope Magazine 2017 SoCal Awards. Moon self funded the company and lacked the resources to scale and perfect the tech, so she ultimately shut down the company at the end of 2017. In 2018, Moon was diagnosed with Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome and had to cease cannabis use completely. This led to her shifting her career towards Public Relations and Event Production. In May 2018, she co-produced and co-hosted the California Cannabis Awards, which was the first cannabis event to be held at LA Live. From October 2018 to April 2019, Moon worked as Director of Public Relations for ParagonSpace, a coworking space for the cannabis industry. Moon was named by Green Entrepreneur as a top 100 Most Important Women in Cannabis in 2019. www.alicemoon.lawww.cannabinoid-hyperemesis.comhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/what-is-chs-cannabinoid-hyperemesis-syndrome-marijuana-vomiting-hot-showers-110007595.htmlwww.thehempchat.com#CHS #Hemp #Cannabis #Education

#37 THC W/ SAM BURNEY Starting With Clones
Starting with Hemp ClonesDerek Cross Chats with Sam Burney to Discuss Clones vs. SeedPlanting clones into your field offers several huge advantages in terms of quality and quantity. Growing hemp for CBD production requires 100% of the plants to be female varieties. The female hemp plant produces far more CBD content than the male variety. When starting a crop from seed there will be approximately 50% female and 50% male plants, and the farmer will not be able to identify which are female until 6-8 weeks after germination. Point 3 clones are guaranteed to be genetically superior females, thereby eliminating the time-consuming and costly task of separating (sexing) your plants.Seed stock has many genetic variations which means that there will be a wide range of CBD content, terpenes, and other qualities in hemp that is grown from seed. Point 3 clones will be an exact genetic replica of one of our mother plants, with Certificates of Analysis (COA) available showing how the genetic variety performed the previous season. Point 3 clones have matured over three weeks; robust and field-ready when they leave our farm.Point 3 delivered clones arrive with an established root system allowing you to be well ahead of the curve, kickstarting the growth of your hemp crop. With large acreage a row planter can be used to expedite the planting. Overall, utilizing clones reduces labor while increasing yield. Exceptional Quality, Lower Tangible Costs, Higher Yields = Smart Farming!!! Join the revolution… Contact Point 3 today.
