In case you missed it, the episode is available on our YouTube channel, and Cannabis Science and Technology published a summary of the episode here: https://lnkd.in/gGfCsS3b "Next, Oldham discussed mistakes seen the curing process and how to avoid them. He described the results seen between several different types of containers for storage or curing, burping containers during curing, and steps to ensure quality control. Cass noted the role of packaging. To provide a real-life example of what do when things go wrong, Oldham described the steps taken during a recent power outage at their facility to ensure the quality of the plants and products."
