Las Vegas, NV, Jan. 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- MJ Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: MJNE) (the “Company”), a leader in the Nevada cannabis market, announces the preliminary results of its first harvest at its three-acre hybrid outdoor-mesh cultivation facility in Amargosa, Nevada.
On November 30, 2018, the Company began harvesting more than 7,700 marijuana plants representing thirteen different strains, including the very popular Blue Dream, Chem Dog and Sour Diesel. Having completed the harvest on December 24, 2018, the drying of trim, curing of flower and testing of product is continuing. Initial test results on over 4,000 lbs. of marijuana plant trim have returned a 95% passing rate, among the highest of any grower in Nevada.
“We could not be happier with the results of this initial grow,” Paris Balaouras, the Company’s CEO said. He further stated, “Our hybrid-mesh growing system performed as we expected and firmly established our ability to grow marijuana in the Nevada desert.”
In the first two weeks of January the Company sold about 1,000 lbs. of trim to a number of leading local Las Vegas brands and dispensaries. Mr. Balaouras stated, “We are most encouraged by our returning customers who have been impressed by the overall quality of our products.”
The Company will utilize some of the remaining trim to produce high potency THC distillate for use in its Highland Brothers Titan Q-Cup quartz based vaping system and will also manufacture Highland Brothers Premium Pre-rolls, which are very popular with visitors to Las Vegas. We will also market our high-end flower products to Las Vegas dispensaries under the Highland Brothers brand.
Overall, we expect to sell more than 6,000 pounds of marijuana products with gross revenues exceeding $6,000,000 during over the next 90 to 120 days.
