 Cannabis cultivation career

I did this once but I wanted to see if there were any new insights. I work in ornamental nursery and for the most part I enjoy my job downside is I don’t get health insurance. I’m tempted to switch to cannabis cultivation because I’ve seen cannabis cultivation jobs with better benefits, should I make the switch?

There's no question that you should start your own operation and be your own boss.

I’d at least consider it if they have better benefits, but keep in mind it really depends on who you’d be growing for. I’ve heard horror stories of mold and pesticide exposure, slave wages, etc.
As solid said, being your own boss is nice, but also means you’re responsible for everything that could go wrong. Hemp licenses make it pretty easy to get into though.

I used to be concerned about molds managing a cure room but not anymore.
I've shifted paradigms when it comes to disease.
This isn't the appropriate place to discuss.
Cannabis cultivation can be great but as others have said, it's who you work for.
Some grow ops are more focused on quantity than of quality.

"Until an infectious disease crisis is very real, present, and at an emergency threshold, it is often largely ignored. To sustain the funding base beyond the crisis, he said, we need to increase public understanding of the need for MCMs [medical countermeasures] such as a pan-influenza or pan-coronavirus vaccine. A key driver is the media, and the economics follow the hype. We need to use that hype to our advantage to get to the real issues. Investors will respond if they see profit at the end of process." - Peter Daszak

If you are down to inhale the molds, then you should work for the Man.
I'd go for the benefits, especially dental and Covid Shots.

Unless you live in the woods like me and only grow outdoors exclusively....then you build up natural tolerance to all sorts of shit by accidentally smoking a bug carcass or whatever the fuck else
