• Operating and maintaining lighting, irrigation, and climate-control systems while stocking supplies and keeping all cultivation areas and tools clean and sanitized

• Pitching in during high-demand periods to help prepare and package products, including premium extraction items

• Following state regulations and security procedures by accurately labeling plants and entering inventory information
