About Us
ILLICIT works with local and national advocacy groups to support the release of cannabis POWs, while bringing responsible medical cannabis into the mainstream. The data doesn't lie, and marijuana prohibition is a wrong we're working to right.
We believe Missouri and the United States as a whole have reached an important tipping point in our collective consciousness, and what was once illicit will be a new beginning.

Why do we hand trim?
Hand trimming gives you better looking buds, but most importantly: higher potency. Machine trimming may be faster, but it damages trichomes and does a number on the buds. We take our time with every nugget, so you always get the highest
quality product.
Each strain is treated with our proprietary drying and curing techniques to maximize the cannabinoid and
terpene content of the flower. Everything is hand done...always.
We reclaim all moisture pulled from the air inside grow rooms through condenser pumps on the HVAC system. Treated with dissolved oxygen to sterilize and reintroduced into our feed tanks for even more enhanced water efficiency.
