New Co-Chief Grower – Las Vegas Project
Further to the Company’s November 29th press release, the management is very pleased to welcome Mr. Matt Bubba Berger, a long time partner with Mr. Paul Holbert to join us as Co- Chief Grower for the Company’s Las Vegas project. He has been cultivating cannabis for over 25 years, developing genetics, gathering awards, and starting cannabusinesses along the way. He co-founded, with Paul Holbert, one of the first dispensaries in Denver, Colorado, the original Cannaseur Dispensary, and has built, managed and operated several cannabis cultivation facilities. He is one of the five “godfathers of the Kush” when they discovered and named the original Kush in 1992, which Matt took to LA and made the strain what it is today, which has become known as OG Kush and also the 92 OG. The OG Kush is the strain that High Times Magazine named the “#1 Cannabis Strain of All Time”. Bubba also created Bubba Kush in 1997. Between the OG Kush and the Bubba Kush, those two lineages account for as much as 70% of the genetics available in North America today.
