LAS VEGAS, June 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The cannabis industry is currently undergoing an operational revolution to modernize systems and processes to meet the ongoing business challenges of high costs and increasing competition. Leading companies have recognized that no other aspect of a cannabis operation makes as much of a difference in quality or has a greater impact on success as cultivation.
In her comprehensive new book “>100 g/square foot: The new cultivation standard”, Veteran growers Chris O’Ferrell and Luca Boldrini explore the intricacies of commercial cannabis cultivation, focusing on best practices aimed at achieving yields of more than 100 grams per square foot. The days when wholesale prices were $3,000 per pound are a distant memory. As legalization continues to spread across the United States, competition has increased sharply and costs have skyrocketed. Industry margins are razor thin—and ongoing regulatory costs, taxes, and other factors continue to eat into profits. The book is available now from Larger than 100g.com.
“As large-scale growers, Luca and I have seen a lot of changes over the past 10 years,” said Chris O’Ferrell, who is currently managing cultivation in Nevada’s Harvesting deep roots. “The rapid pace of technology has created amazing opportunities to develop innovative cultivation processes that significantly improve quality, yield and overall cost. We wanted to update the conventional wisdom with a book that provides the latest insights into how to achieve these results, which have never been more critical to success.”
With hand-drawn illustrations and beautiful, high-resolution photographs, “>100 g/square foot: The new cultivation standard” makes complex concepts accessible while providing insight into maintaining profitability, prioritizing quality and genetics, and adapting to market fluctuations – crucial elements for anyone working in the field. Established breeders or aspiring breeders looking to refine their techniques will find that “>100g/sqft:The new cultivation standard” provides the knowledge and tools needed to compete in the competitive field of commercial cannabis. In addition, the book’s stunning imagery and attention to detail will provide inspiration for both experienced growers and home gardeners. Highlights of the book include:

- Invaluable insight into the science of successful cultivation, with a focus on quality, genetics and profitability in a fluctuating market.
“If a cultivation site is not currently profitable at $1,000 per pound of indoor flowers and does not produce a gram of cannabis for less than $1 per gram, it will most likely have major profitability problems within the next five years,” said Luca Boldrini, who runs the cultivation site at Curablatt, Standard Wellness and other companies. “The need to produce higher yields of high-quality cannabis at lower costs has never been more important. With the cultivation strategies we describe in this book, these goals are achievable.”
