CINCINNATI, Ohio — Prospiant, the agtech business unit of Gibraltar Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROCK), today announced a series of webinars designed to help cannabis growers learn strategies that will help them to build a thriving cannabis growing business.
The webinar series kicked off in July with the webinar, “How to Grow Cannabis 101,” which presented a general overview of the cannabis lifecycle and explained to attendees how to find the perfect balance among air, water and light to ensure a successful crop. Four new webinars will follow, beginning this month.
Aiming to provide attendees with an in-depth understanding of the steps growers need to take to drive success of their small or large cannabis business, the webinar series will cover key factors that affect the growth cycle of a cannabis crop, as well as how to determine the best growing environment for a specific geographic region.
”Prospiant is offering this webinar series to provide growers with pertinent information and resources that will help them both to respond to industry-wide challenges and position their individual businesses for opportunities to succeed and expand,” said John Burgoon, solutions architect at Prospiant, who is facilitating the webinars.
