A Look at BC Black's

Cultivators

Here's Why

Our Cannabis Is Different

This Cannabis is AAAA grade. You can expect it to be highly potent and have terpene profiles which soar above our competition. But that’s only half the story. BC Black products represent a degree of quality which was previously only available through the illicit market. There’s a reason why we’re able to secure these niche, legacy strains – it’s because we embrace the cultivators who grow them – by helping legacy cultivators transition to the legal market a craft legacy, built on tradition.
