\t\t<\/p>\n

Notoriously unapologetic lifelong marijuana aficionado B-Real of Cypress Hill, runs vertically-integrated cannabis company Dr. Greenthumb\u2019s.<\/p>\n

The hip-hop pioneer continues to expand his canna-business empire with the launch of THC Controls, an industrial automation system that is perfecting indoor cultivation operations. <\/p>\n

THC Controls fuses together the prized trade secrets and methodology from legendary cultivation sensei Kenji Fujishima, with top-tier technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Recently launched, the budding operation provides an all-in-one cultivation set-up with a completely automated environment, and a 24\/7 support system, for indoor grows to thrive. <\/p>\n

This turnkey solution is designed to develop the optimal environment for any indoor cultivation operation to scale, by eliminating human error.\u00a0<\/p>\n

THC Controls\u2019 \u2018cultivation made easy\u2019 model focuses on four pillars needed to execute optimal crop yields by providing automated heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, fertigation, and data systems, and even floor plans, which are customizable to each clients\u2019 needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Indoor cultivators can now come out of the shadows and set up grows that reflect the multi-million-dollar operations that are indicative of a rapidly expanding industry. \u00a0<\/p>\n

THC Controls founding members, B-Real and Kenji Fujishima combine their knowledge of the cannabis plant with techies George Balasanyan and Mitch Wayte\u2019s experience in setting up commercial, FDA-approved buildings from hospitals, to schools, to military-grade facilities.<\/p>\n

Fujishima, a master cultivator with over two decades of experience, leads operations at THC Controls.<\/p>\n

\u201cReplicating nature in a controlled environment requires a fusion of trade secrets and the top minds in environmental control to produce the crop yields needed to run a successful cannabis brand,\u201d Fujishima said. <\/p>\n

\u201cUntil now, expert cultivators have had to makeshift their own technology out of what was commercially available for other types of businesses and are forced to deal with unreliable vendors. The instruments needed to control everything from making sure the build-out is correct, lights stay on, plants are fed, the temperature and humidity stay at a set point, reminders for routine maintenance, to rapid alerts of any malfunction detected need to work together to be the most effective. By merging these services under one roof, we are ensuring that the equipment and maintenance work in harmony so growers can turn their attention to the plants and ensure a consistent high-grade product.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, the data systems installed by THC Controls are meant to be kept local, away from third-party operators such as app stores and cloud databases that can leave your trade secrets vulnerable to hackers or eyes outside your organization.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With no outside investors, THC Controls has complete autonomy to ensure the passion and quality of their work are aligned with Dr. Greenthumb\u2019s brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been in this game for quite some time,\u201d said B-Real. \u201cThe expertise we have gained in the industry came with so many risks and sacrifices. As the climate is changing, we are finally finding ourselves on the other side and plan to grow Dr. Greenthumb\u2019s as we always envisioned. We are now in a position to benefit others with equal passion for the plant as we continue to grow Dr. Greenthumb\u2019s empire.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

THC Controls offers full custom setups. <\/p>\n

There is no controller out there that is built one standard way for people in cannabis. <\/p>\n

If you talk tech with 10 different cultivators, they probably have 10 different ways to describe how they cultivate. \u201cYou can\u2019t just sell a boxed controller and say, \u2018Here\u2019s your stuff and here is what you gonna do with it,\u2019\u201d said Balasanyan, \u201cbecause there are sequences and variables.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the clothing industry, for example, there are off the rack options versus tailor-made,\u201d Balasanyan said. \u201cTHC Controls are the bespoke regulation system. We offer customizable options and program it accordingly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

In this exclusive interview, the team behind THC Controls shares how they developed the idea for the brand and what\u2019s next for the rapidly expanding automation company.<\/p>\n

Cannabis & Tech Today<\/em>: B, as a serial entrepreneur, I\u2019m sure you get pitched all day and you\u2019ve launched several successful brands including B-Real TV, Dr. Greenthumb\u2019s, Insane merch, Phunkytips, and now THC Controls. What is it about an idea that gives you that \u201caha\u201d moment, where you decide the pitch is worth investing in?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n
