Frequently Asked Questions
-
Rainwater irrigation, outdoor sun-grown cultivation, reused living soil, and a production process — hang-drying, slow curing — chosen for quality over speed rather than for a sustainability label on its own.
-
Entirely rainwater, collected off the farm's roofs on Salt Spring Island and used to irrigate the outdoor crop. → Rainwater at GOOD BUDS
-
Once a year, typically late September into early October — outdoor cannabis follows a single natural season rather than the multiple harvests an indoor grow can run. → One Harvest a Year
-
Hang-drying and a slower cure change how moisture leaves the plant, which affects flavour, burn quality, and how the flower holds up over time — a deliberate trade-off of time for quality over speed.
-
It runs on sunlight and rainwater instead of grow lights and climate control, and follows the land's own growing season rather than running year-round. → Indoor Cannabis Runs on Lights and Air Conditioning. Ours Runs on the Sun.
-
Organic soil amendments, cycled through soil beds that stay in continuous use rather than a synthetic nutrient programme reset each grow. → Synthetic Nutrients
Sustainable Agriculture
Sustainable Agriculture covers how GOOD BUDS actually farms: Rainwater irrigation, outdoor sun-grown cultivation, and a production process built around fewer, better-considered inputs rather than speed. Irrigation is drawn entirely from rainwater collected off the farm's roofs.
Gluerangutan and Timewarp are grown outdoors in full sun and harvested once a year, typically late September into early October, then hang-dried and slow-cured rather than machine-dried—a slower process that shapes flavour and burn quality.
Cultivation favours organic soil amendments over synthetic fertilisers, and growers reuse and rebuild soil beds rather than replace them each season.
