[{"type":"text","content":"\nCARSON CITY, NV, July 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pharmagreen Biotech, Inc. (f/k/a Air Transport Group Holdings, Inc.), (OTC PINKS: AITGD), is pleased to announce that its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, WFS Pharmagreen Inc., will be deploying the use of proprietary scientific innovations in its biotech complex and its tissue cultured plantlets, to produce just over ten million annually for licensed producers (growers/cultivators).  \n The growers will benefit because Pharmagreen will be the largest producer in Canada of disease- and bug-free starter plantlets that are genetically the same (no genetic drift) produced in a clean room medical grade lab without stress, as opposed to cloning of plants.  The tissue cultured starter plantlets are considered much superior starting plant material and therefore produce much higher yields as opposed to plantlets produced from cloning. Traditional cloning is taking repetitive cuttings of tips from the same mother plants, which are grown in regular greenhouse conditions where different stress factors can occur including over cutting of tips (clones) from mother plants, which cause the mother plant not to transfer best genetics with every tip taken. Additionally the clones can be infected with bugs and diseases as they are taken from a mother plant resulting in sick, infested and/or not genetically identical starter plantlets of very poor quality and therefore very low yields of very low quality bud.     The supply of Pharmagreen tissue culture plantlets on a regular and consistent basis would eliminate the need for a grower to maintain their own cloning and mother stock room of plants, which usually occupies 20% of the total grow facility space. Elimination of that space would give them additional 20% for flower “bud” production and result in more product produced. Additionally the cultivator can switch to a “sea of green” growing schedule, more plants in the same space, with shorter flower production cycles and higher yields.  This method provides higher quality flower “bud” material and more flower cycles, which also benefits the market supply chain with a consistent high grade cannabis supply in shorter time.  As market demand responds to certain strains of the day, the cultivator can adjust more quickly.
