Good to know
- The conference, Growers Month and buyer contracts reset each game year.
- Attending the conference also counts its sessions as masterclasses.
- Your Soil to Bloom and Propagation masterclasses improve trial bud and spike scores, and Laboratory Testing raises lab quality.
- The game notes that it is an educational simulation and does not represent any real association's certification.
