- Michael and Andres discussed Retrofitting, transitioning from single-tier cultivation to multi-tiered cultivation.
- Retrofitting is prominent in maturing markets, driven by factors like energy codes (e.g., Title 24 in California) and rebate programs.
- Incentives such as rebates facilitate the transition to more efficient technologies like LED lighting.
- Most retrofit projects involve moving from single-tier HPS to multi-tier LED setups.
- Considerations during retrofitting include adjusting airflow, humidity, and cooling capacity to accommodate the increased canopy levels.
- How it's crucial to rethink mechanical system layout and size appropriately when retrofitting.
- The importance of environmental control outside of the cultivation rooms, such as in fertigation rooms, must be considered.
- Planning and investment are necessary for successful retrofitting, but the long-term benefits include increased production and efficiency.
- The process requires careful planning, investment, and adaptation to address structural, environmental, workflow, and efficiency challenges.
- Engaging with experts and leveraging innovative solutions can optimize facilities for vertical cultivation and maximize production potential.
- Anders and Michael per usual offer themselves as resources for those considering or undergoing retrofitting projects and encourage sharing experiences for mutual learning.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
