Keep smoking and growing and watching prohibitions fall down.

So welcome with the 230 presentation on autoflowering cannabis.

Please silence your cell phones.

We've been having a lot of problems with that today.

I am Shangolos, host of the Shaping Fire podcast.

If you like listening to Smart Interviews with the Top Minds in Canvas, I invite you to

check out the show at shapingfire.com. We also have an extraordinary YouTube channel with over

150 speaker videos I recorded at events just like this one. This video presentation will be posted

there next week. There are

postcards in the back near the door to help you remember the name shaving fire.
