## Resource

In this episode, we sit down with Connor Ockfen, a seasoned cultivator and propagation lead at Collective Elevation in Montana. Connor manages a large-scale cloning and vegetative program that produces over 15,000 clones a year. He shares actionable insights into mother plant care, clone uniformity, rooting protocols, environmental management, and how to maintain genetic integrity across a commercial cultivar library — all while staying in compliance with Montana’s state tracking systems. This is a must-listen for anyone involved in propagation, veg, or commercial-scale plant production.
