VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 18, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Next Green Wave Holdings Inc. (CSE: NGW) (OTCQB: NXGWF) ("Next Green Wave", “NGW” or the "Company"), is excited to announce that it has obtained an Occupancy Permit for its first advanced indoor production facility from the City of Coalinga. The Company is now authorized as a licensed producer and is immediately advancing with its cannabis production by moving in over 10,000 plantlets to activate its growth cycle.
Effective today, NGW will commence its cultivation program and receive its first plantlets to accommodate a perpetual harvest cycle comprised of approx. 50 yields per year. Each growth to point-of-sale cycle is expected to last four months. The building has been equipped with 14 climate-controlled flowering rooms which are expected to produce an average of 9,150 pounds of cannabis flower annually.
The raw material and biomass grown from NGW’s facility will be used for extraction for downstream consumer products such as oils, waxes, tinctures and extracts for custom vaporizer products associated with the company’s WEARESDC partner brands and other licensed cultivators in the wholesale supply-chain.
Leigh Hughes, CEO of Next Green Wave commented: “Beginning the production cycle is a critical milestone for us and a clear testament of our efforts. We completed all our due-diligence to ensure our supply-chain and facility protect the quality and integrity of our product and safety of our staff. We are poised for growth and ready to show our stakeholders and consumers that we are ready to amass a considerable stake of California’s premium cannabis market.”
