Glossary
Value recovery is the practice of capturing more of the value already grown — preventing flower from being miscategorized as trim, miscategorized to a lower grade, or lost to over-drying. Distinct from yield gains, which require growing more cannabis.
Cultivation gains require more cost: more nutrients, more lights, more canopy. Value recovery costs nothing new — the biomass is already sitting in the drying room. The only question is how much walks out the door at the right grade and price.
