Without exception, all phases of the cultivation process is to document the application – from initial germination through to the packaging of Cannabis and the shipping. Technologically, the developers rely on a Mix of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Blockchain. This Information should not be traceable at any time, but also immutable.
