Meet the Cultivator
Work Directly with an Experienced Cultivation Leader
I'm Mike McAnlis, and I've spent more than 15 years leading commercial cultivation operations across multiple states. I work directly with cannabis operators to improve production, build scalable systems, and solve complex cultivation challenges.
I pride myself on a track record of driving significant ROI for my partners. My methodologies consistently deliver industry-leading success rates in yield maximization, operational efficiency, pest management, and regulatory compliance. I don't just solve problems; I implement durable systems that prevent them from recurring.
Whether you are a boutique craft producer or a multi-state operator, my approach remains the same: I partner with your team to implement customized solutions that respect the unique character of your facility, your garden, and your company culture. Every grow is a living ecosystem that requires a highly customized, tailored plan to reach its full potential.

What People Are Saying
Insights from operators, colleagues, and industry partners.
"Mike was practical and focused on results. He worked with what we had, found creative solutions, and made it work, even when conditions weren't perfect. He's a critical thinker and one of the best problem solvers I've ever had the opportunity to work with. If we'd had Mike with us from the beginning, he would have saved us millions of dollars and years of unnecessary stress."
John Taylor
Owner, Six-Labs
"Under Mike's leadership, our facility has improved in quality, consistency, and workflow. 100% He's amazing! An absolute pro!"
Ryan Medina
Owner, Stellar Cannabis
"Mike works well under pressure, especially in challenging environments. He can completely turn around a failing set of rooms, eradicate pests, and lead a team to a successful harvest consistently. Working with Mike has always been a pleasure."
Jon Jirikovec
Crop Advisor, Grodan
"Mike took our building yields from 460 lbs. per month to 900 lbs. per month. He fundamentally transformed our business. Anyone would be lucky to have Mike involved in their cultivation business. He is an industry veteran and an operator with extensive experience, miles apart from the grow consultants I've seen who lack true lived multistate experience navigating startups."
Brandon Blake
Chief Operating Officer, Six-Labs
"Our garden was dealing with an aphid infestation. Mike approached the situation calmly and systematically, identifying the source and scope of the problem while developing a pest management strategy that addressed both the immediate infestation and the conditions that allowed it to spread. He helps build systems that can be sustained long after consultation ends."

Associate Director of Flower Processing, Native Roots
