Moving into the Future

Urban Goes Vertical

At Urban Wellness, we believe in utilizing technologies, research and development, and patient input to drive our company into the future. That’s why we’ve collaborated with PIPP Horticulture and Mammoth LED to create a state-of-the-art grow facility.

PIPP Horticulture is the industry leading provider of mobile, vertical grow rack systems, helping growers maximize production capability. With over 80,000 cardholders enrolled in the New Mexico Medical Cannabis Program, increasing our production helps us better serve our patients.

Managing a grow facility while maximizing yields---particularly in an urban area--- can be difficult, and finding a large enough space can come at a hefty price. By transitioning to vertical farming, we maximize canopy space and more than double production per square foot. Racks are easily moved and adjusted, increasing efficiency and creating a more streamlined workflow in our facility.

In addition to transitioning to a vertical farming system, Urban is converting to Mammoth LED lights and a vertical air system. This change allows for hyper-uniformity--- our harvests are consistently testing high in THC and terpenes. LEDs allow use of different spectrums of light, enabling us to provide the perfect environment unique to each plant. With less heat emitting from the lights, less oxidation occurs and more terpenes stay bound to the plant, allowing trichomes to shine brighter than ever. 

With these changes, Urban has complete environmental control in our grow facility, assuring the safest, cleanest product, free of contaminants and exceeding the standards of all state-mandated quality assurance tests.

This is just one of many examples showcasing Urban’s commitment to producing the highest quality product.
