At Carmel Cannabis, craft is the standard. Rooted in Canada’s legacy market, this Ontario-based producer blends small-batch care with modern precision to deliver award-winning genetics and consistent, premium quality.

As Carmel’s reputation for premium craft flower grew, so did demand. Scaling up meant finding a substrate that could protect cultivar integrity, hit target specs every time, and still keep the small-batch standards they built their name on. Growing in Grodan stone wool gives them the control to fine-tune irrigation, optimize plant health, and deliver consistent results across multiple strains.

From phenohunting and mothers to veg and flower, Carmel uses this precision to steer crops, bring out peak terpene expression, and keep delivering the quality their name is known for in every harvest.

Download the full case study to see how Carmel Cannabis scales premium production with stone wool while staying true to their craft.

We were pulling 40 to 50 kilos per room when we started — now we’re hitting 80 to 100 kilos per room while improving quality. That wouldn’t have happened without crop steering, GroSens data, and Grodan’s technical support.
