Josh D Farms Ranks No. 2 in 15th Annual Emerald Cup's Licensed Mixed Light Category

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., December 18, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Josh D Farms, often credited with the origination of Los Angeles’ OG Kush movement, received industry-wide recognition at The Emerald Cup 2018, the most respected cannabis competition in the world, this past weekend. The company’s well-known OG Kush varietal was named No. 2 in the Licensed Mixed Light Flower Category.

Founded by Josh Del Rosso, Josh D Farms made an early mark on the cannabis scene, being credited as one of the originators of Los Angeles’ OG Kush movement. Del Rosso was among the city’s first cultivators to couple hydroponic indoor growing with what would become one of the most famous cannabis varietals in history. As a result, the majority of the California cannabis market is now a derivative of the exact cultivar that was made famous by Josh D Farms. For more than two decades, Josh D Farms has focused exclusively in cultivating products using OG Kush genetics and hydroponic horticulture techniques. Today, Del Rosso brings his rich history and expert knowledge of the strain to his connoisseur-caliber line of products. Josh D Farms is based in Southern California and operates a 180,000-square-foot cultivation facility in Santa Barbara County. The company is funded and operated by Calyx Peak Companies, a multi-state operator based in Canton, Massachusetts.
