RE:RE:RE:Edmonton facilityFrom what i know, we would always hear George and other people saying this was going to take off and be the next big thing in the cannabis world. When i started looking into things, i always wondered how someone with a security background became a cannabis "guru". When i realized all this it was too late and i had already invested a lot. However, i couldnt start saying things to hurt the company even more.
The things i noticed...
- I believe George mismanaged all the money. They would continuously fly to Edmonton and Victoria (or BC) almost weekly and just show up, plane tickets, and hotels and other travelling.. it all adds up. Im also sure gerorge had some of his family members on payroll. I would always see his son going and coming around the bullding, although i forgot his "title" with the company. I also heard a rumor his wife was somehow on payroll..
- He had incompetent people working for him. When the orbital gardens were being built, he had some guy (which i wont mention his name, as i believe george put him in that position) in charge of the procurement of getting parts for the orbital garden, this guy didnt really know how manufacturing worked and relied on others to tell him what parts were and how things worked. They had put us in a bay with a bunch of welding machines and were told to started building orbital gardens. The shop wasent really set up to great and we were always borrowing things from the shop next door.
- There was a rumor that george lent RQB alot of money at one point and in return he got alot more on his investment (Not sure if thats important, but just stating things i heard incase you guys wanna know lol)
- George is really good at talking and making people feel important and making things seem like its going to be the next big thing. My opinion, he tried to build and expand way too fast (and mismaneged money, although he made sure his security company got paid) and failed due to inexperience. Sure he may of had some educated people on his team, but none with a really solid cannabis background.
- As for the orbital gardens. They worked because i put some together and saw them rotating. We were to make between 300 to 330 orbital gardens. The building they built is actually very nice (i'll give RQB that). From what i remember, there was maybe 3 rooms ready and approx 32 orbital gardens per room. They had cannabis in some other gardens but not all. As for the roto-gro gardens, i think as per law you need to change a certain amount of things on a product to be able to get around a patent???? i could be wrong but i thought i read that somewhere, they did change a lot of things on the gardens, but looking at roto-gro gardens, they do look similar. However, so do alot of vehicles out there, i didnt know you can patent a wheel in a rectangle, but who knows whats right and whats wrong. Also, RQB got rid of some employees when manufacturing of the gardens were completed. So i dont know what happened and how much they produced. But George did screw over alot of people and kept telling them they would get paid and didnt (hence the lawsuit of E.B horseman that was made public).
Damn i started writing and didnt realize i wrote a lot. Anyways, its my fault for listening to the people around there and blindly investing. I hope legal action is taken against george because he is a fraud. I truely hope someone picks this company up somehow and revives it, maybe if the roto-gro lawsuit goes away.. (i doubt it, but people can dream)
If i can remember anything else i'll post it.
