"What is not to like here ?

Agree How much higher you think she goes ?

Hmmmmm.....What's not to like here ?....

Looks like quite a bit of a Killer Chart .
One in which I'm sensing an upwards (albeit "fanning") trend.

Up 10% pre. Looking good

There was a bit of a correction yesterday. I heard something fairly funny recently. Tyler Robson is a multi millionaire experienced grower who is loving the legislation which is about to make his activities completely legal. With Tyler's experience and the management team he put together, the sky is the limit.

I agree and read about it on another board. Saw them get some publicity on the Aphria board.

Since you made that call, it is amazing what has happened. Valens is really attracting the attention of smart money from the United States.

Grrrr.. let this one slip away. Nice move.

Great post and I agree. The Valens story and the business plan will allow the company to be successful after the cannabis craze is over. My guess is that there will be 5-8 players left standing in the end. Valens should be one.

This a great article. The Canadian cannabis industry is here to stay.

https://investingnews.com/innspired/canada-modern-cannabis-indoor-facilities-construction-demand/

The export market for CBD and cannabis will be a bigger opportunity for Canadian cannabis companies than the domestic opportunity. Since some companies like Valens are really focusing on the production and extraction of high quality cannabinoids, I believe the export opportunity will be very large.

I was up in Canada recently and the municipalities are expecting a shortfall of supply as there is a rush for medical and recreational cannabis going forward. October will be an interesting month for Valens as well as many Canadian cannabis companies. However, companies with low market caps will be the most attractive.

That is all true but they will attract even bigger money. Cannabis is a buzz word in North America but there will be a shifting of real vs. promotion and this is one of the real ones. That is my opinion.

Valens Groworks has bottomed here. Not saying that they don't need more money. However, no aggressive money raises will be done at the current price level.

There is a pullback in the stock price. Remains one of the lowest market cap plays in the Canadian cannabis stratosphere.

Growing cannabis without having processing capabilities misses half the profit pie. Valens has both which I love.

I would like to visit the plant in Kelowna. Cannabis stocks will run the first half of 2019 in my opinion.

He is a great grower who is going to be the next generation of cannabis billionaires. Look at management team. Undervalued compared to most Canadian cannabis plays.

Interview with Tyler Robson is a good interview.

https://investingnews.com/daily/resource-investing/agriculture-investing/cannabis-investing/valens-groworks-ceo-interviewed-on-midas-letter-live/

There a few Canadian cannabis companies that are priced fairly. There a few that are steals. This may be the latter.

That is Maricann and that is after the deal was cancelled earlier in the year. I agree. Much strength in sector.

Just saw another Canadian marijuana company announce a raise of $40 million through Cannacord. Money continues to pour into Canadian-based marijuana plays. Love it and only a matter of time before these stocks make a move.

People forget about this relationship.

I recently heard that Valens may be shooting to have more extraction capacity than any other company in North America. If they meet that goal, it should be interesting because I expect to see the MH's and Nutiva's of the world get into the extract business and that spells well for Valens. They'll probably use Valens.

To all, I am working on valuation table compared to other companies in the space in Canada.

I think the Canadian market will get interesting. What is profoundly interesting is the amount of money that has flowed into the Canadian cannabis companies. These companies are being funded institutionally.

That is a great article and I agree 100%. It will be interesting to see if the same moves are made as here in the states in 2013 and 2014.

I just read a fantastic article:

https://money.usnews.com/investing/stock-market-news/articles/2018-07-09/canadian-cannabis-stocks-set-to-surge-in-fall

Real management team being put together here. That is half the battle. The corporate structure is in place to build a real company with a lasting culture and legacy as opposed to just selling some product.

As discussed, I am putting together a list of Canadian cannabis companies that are publicly traded. This will be one of the better values across the board.

I love the fact that this company is getting involved on the extraction side. Although I firmly believe that science has a long way to go to understand what cannabinoid does what, the fact is that there is a huge market for isolates such as CBD. Valens is approaching this very intelligently.

I just read about Valens on another board. This stock looks cheap. Are they involved in CBD?

I am interested in seeing how this compares to each and every Canadian cannabis play. My guess is that it is one of the cheapest. I see you also follow Aphria. This is less than 5 percent the valuation of the big companies. I looked at the website and it looks like a real management team and not just a promotion. I'll take a shot. Could do real well if they execute on the greenhouse plans.

I am looking forward to seeing that. Canada cannabis will be the winner for 2018. As we head into the third quarter which is now, people are going to accumulate in anticipation of a cannabis boom in Canada.

I am putting together a post for valuations of Canadian cannabis companies as compared to Valens and the disparity in valuations is shocking. Investors will discover Valens!!!.

This is dirt cheap compared to most of the Canadian cannabis plays. I will buy it on the TSX Venture. Thanks. Good call.

Valens Groworks and Cronos are my favorite Canadian cannabis plays. Valens is trading at a fraction of the price of Cronos.

Valens Groworks Attracting Big Money

There is an interesting pattern developing in the cannabis market. I have noticed about 5 stock market plays in the United States where highly successful real estate developers have created a hybrid partnership with cannabis companies. The end result is a world class commercial real estate play dedicated to cannabis cultivation.

Any commercial real estate developer knows that long-term tenants are a key part of the formula of a successful real estate venture in the commercial real estate market. Some market experts say which I believe that cannabis is the next great American market which will become the next great world market. It may in time dwarf the tobacco market. Large commercial real estate money is now flowing into the cannabis market. In other words, smart money with deep pockets is flowing into the cannabis market. I would suggest to look at these public companies that are forming these partnerships.

Take a look at Kosha in the press release below and as you can see, this is exactly what is happening with Valens. In one particular opportunity, I was part of a discussion with a multi-billion dollar Los-Angeles-based commercial real estate developer building a facility for the express purpose of partnering with a cannabis play.

Valens Groworks seems to be doing the same thing. Here is the press release.

Valens Groworks Finalizes Greenhouse Production Plans

Kelowna, B.C. -- June 20, 2018 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Valens GroWorks Corp. (CSE: VGW) (the “Company” or “Valens”), a multi-licensed, vertically integrated provider of cannabis products and services utilizing proprietary extraction processes, is pleased to provide an update on subsidiary Valens Farms’ state-of-the-art, purpose-built 400,000 sq ft, expandable (to 800,000 sq ft) cannabis cultivation and production facility, currently under development.

“I am extremely excited to confirm the following highlights and key participants brought together to complete the Valens Farms facility.” said Tyler Robson, Valens CEO. “The intent is to build a facility nothing short of world-class as Valens continues to evolve into a vertically-integrated provider of Valens-branded cannabis consumer products with the ability to quality control every batch of input.”

About Valens Farms - $75,000,000 joint venture development of prime acreage with a purpose-built, state-of-the-art, European GMP-certified cultivation center within the municipality of the City of Armstrong.

• Phase 1 buildout to 400,000 sq ft (permitted for up to 800,000 sq ft);
• Zero cash outlay for Valens, with Kosha contributing 100% of land, building and equipment costs;
• All hard assets will be split 50/50 between Kosha and Valens, thereby providing $37.5 million of net assets to Valens’ balance sheet with no cash outlay or liability incurred;
• Valens’ current Dealers License and GMP-certified facility in Kelowna is leveraged through Valens Farms’ production, enhancing opportunities to export cannabis products internationally;
• Initial crop planting at joint venture facility is expected in Q4 2018, with Valens and Kosha to split profits on a 50/50 basis following cost recovery by Kosha;
• Valens Farms is expecting Phase 1 production of up to 56,000 kg per year of premium monocrop cannabis, primarily for extraction purposes. Monocropping minimizes grow time, allows greater crop turnover, and is expected to enhance profit margins;
• Subsidiary Valens Agritech will extract cannabis all produced at Valens Farms for further processing into higher-margin Valens-branded products for medical, as well as the expected recreational cannabis markets in Canada and internationally.
Valens Farms has contracted a proven, professional team to help reach its objective of capitalizing on a systematic and efficient growing approach that enhances productivity and efficiency and reduces waste and maintenance costs in comparison to a retrofitting of existing buildings approach.

In addition to the specific contributions and skillsets of each of the partners, the following are some of the key contributors to the Valens Farms buildout:

• Nexus Greenhouse Systems is an industry leader in greenhouse construction, with 50 years of in-house engineering experience and the successful installation of many cannabis greenhouse projects all over North America. Their System 420TM hybrid greenhouses offer engineering excellence and high-quality design. Greenhouse growing allows Valens Farms to maximize the use of natural sunlight along with supplementary lighting to grow vigorous, lush crops while reducing production utility bills by up to 75%.
• DIRTT Environmental Solutions is designing and constructing the headhouse. They are known for constructing quality special-purpose interiors efficiently, which conforms to our aggressive build-out strategy and GMP certification process. The headhouse will be fully integrated with our automated intelligence systems, providing the ability to maintain perfect environmental control within dedicated drying/curing and product storage rooms.
• Argus Controls is providing an advanced environmental control system customized to our requirements, and adaptable to changing needs, enabling our team to set and maintain optimal conditions to efficiently and consistently grow cannabis of the highest quality.
• Dramm Corporation is providing fully automated irrigation systems with the ability to precisely fertigate our plants multiple times a day, substantially reducing the cost of labor. Utilizing Dramm's option for water reclamation, we will minimize costs as well as our environmental footprint.
• PIPP Horticulture has been contracted to provide solutions that maximize our grow space by taking advantage of generally unused vertical square footage, particularly in our mother and vegetative grow rooms.
• Hove’s Canna Gutter Bench is providing additional solutions to help maximize grow space and work efficiency through the aid of rolling benches, taking usable grow space from 60% to as much as 90% while significantly aiding workers’ flow and ergonomics.

Valens GroWorks Creates Valens Farms subsidiary

SOURCE: https://www.dailymarijuanaobserver.com/single-post/2018/04/11/VGW-Valens-GroWorks-Creates-Valens-Farms-subsidiary

VANCOUVER, April 11, 2018 /CNW/ - Valens GroWorks Corp. (CSE:VGW) (the "Company" or "Valens"), a multi-licensed, vertically integrated cannabis company specializing in extraction, processing and premium quality cultivation is pleased to announce the creation of a new subsidiary company, Valens Farms, to commercially produce premium quality specialty-strain cannabis using dedicated, sustainable monocropping technology, and to further expand our supercritical CO2-extracted cannabis oil capacity.



"This is a pivotal initiative for the Okanagan Valley, for British Columbia, the Canadian cannabis sector, and our goal of providing premium cannabis and derivatives to the world's natural health products industry," said Tyler Robson, CEO of Valens GroWorks. "We are very proud of what Valens Farms represents, as an important contributor to the local economy through investments and job creation, and as a partner in our previously announced Centre of Excellence in Plant Based Medicine Analytics initiative underway in nearby Kelowna."



Valens Farms enters into Joint Venture with Kosha Projects Inc.



Valens Farms is pleased to announce that it has broken ground and initiated construction on a purpose-built $75 million 400,000 square foot commercial cannabis production facility, being built in joint venture partnership with Kosha Projects Inc. ("Kosha"). The municipality of the City of Armstrong has approved the building of up to 851,200 square feet of greenhouse and indoor facilities, representing 40% site coverage on the 50-acre property currently owned by Kosha.



Ashley McGrath, President of Kosha states "I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with a company that is passionate about what they do, about the products they produce, and has a particular focus on innovation and value. Valens benefits from our real estate planning and development experience and as an off-balance sheet funding source, and we in turn participate in the exciting growth potential of this nascent industry."



The joint venture partnership will see Kosha contribute the land and all facility development and construction costs and related expertise. Valens will provide design and outfitting inputs, budgetary guidance, consulting and advisory services during construction and development of the facility.



Valens Farms will operate the facility to commercially produce premium quality cannabis and expand the Company's supercritical CO2-extracted cannabis oil capacity. Upon initial construction and development cost recoupment by Kosha, each of Valens Farms and Kosha are entitled to 50% of the revenues earned, and a 50% interest in all the assets connected therewith.



About Valens Farms

Valens Farms is a wholly-owned subsidiary established to develop purpose-built cannabis-specific facilities to enable sustainable closed-system premium hybrid cannabis production of our specialty strains, where Valens' Master Growers can control the fundamentals from day one, rather than converting a greenhouse built for other purposes.



The first initiative for Valens Farms is to complete a 400,000 square foot controlled-environment strain-segregated hybrid greenhouse as part of a large-scale indoor facility on the 50-acre property through its joint venture with Kosha. All-in development costs to Kosha are estimated at $75 million. This property also allows for additional expansion beyond the current 40% site coverage limitation should the City of Armstrong recognise cannabis greenhouse cultivation similarly to other crop greenhouse operations, currently allowed 75% site coverage. Also, once Health Canada approves outdoor cultivation as anticipated, significant additional cannabis under cultivation is enabled, unbounded by current site coverage restrictions, which provides the Company with increased control over cannabis supply dedicated to our extraction capacity. Valens Farms is positioning to be the first partnership to serve the international medical cannabis market as well as the upcoming adult use Canadian recreational market.

Kosha's principal is Ashley McGrath who has been involved in real estate development for 14 years as the president and owner of Glencoe Developments Inc.
