Listen "Jill Ellsworth founder of Willow Industries"
Episode Synopsis
Jill Ellsworth founder of Willow Industries today on Hempire only on Cannabis Radio. It begins in early 2015, with an unexpected phone call. It was Jill's old friend, a first-time grower, and he had a problem: Colorado had new cannabis testing laws, and his first harvest was now subject to testing. By the time the call ended, two things were obvious: cannabis contamination—by mold or other means—was an industry-wide problem, and there were no solutions on the market. But a solution did seem possible, so I agreed to help. Over the next few months, our garage became an R&D lab. And They've tried everything. Willow started with high-pressure pasteurization, but that destroyed the flower. Then they moved to UV light, but it wasn’t powerful enough and—worse—they saw terpene loss. Finally, after multiple rounds of testing, they arrived at the ozone. This time, Willow saw great results. Ozone killed the microbial without altering the flower—our perfect solution! Four months later, they delivered the first operational WillowPure system to their first customer, and it was off to the races.
