They can earn between $75,000 and $125,000 a year. Peterson said many of the people he hires for this job have PhD’s. These “extract artists” have a unique set of skills. Most people only think of marijuana in the plant form, however marijuana extracts are a growing side of the business, amounting to 40% of sales at some stores. Managers can also climb the green ladder and end up overseeing several locations. Many get vacation pay and health insurance just like a traditional job. When you consider that some stores in California have sales of $3 million to $6 million a year, while some San Francsico Bay area stores do $7 million to $10 million a year, that bonus can be pretty good. At minimum, they can earn $75,000 a year and many get a bonus on top of that based on the store's sales. These employees can do very well, especially in profitable stores. Like any retail operation, a medical dispensary or recreational outlet needs a manager. He also thinks that as more states legalize marijuana, California won't be the only place to find a master grower. “It's a pretty specific skill set and over time I expect the recreational marijuana will shape up with celebrity cultivators like celebrity chefs,” said Peterson.
They are used to working on their own and making great wages. They've had more time to develop their skills and reputation. Peterson said that for the time being all the good cultivators come from California. At minimum they can command a salary of $100,000 a year and a percentage of the profit. Grow masters are in high demand and it's a seller's market. Peterson likens it to being a master chef. The grow master is the person responsible for cultivating various strains of marijuana plants.
