Jeff Funk is Organitek’s and Success Nutrients Lead Cultivator, bringing decades of hands-on growing experience and deep-rooted agricultural knowledge to the team. A third-generation farmer, Jeff began cultivating cannabis in 1999, spending several seasons “on the hill” in California's famed Emerald Triangle. That early experience—trimming, bucking, curing, and dodging helicopters—built the original foundation for the scientific precision he now brings to modern R&D.

That early experience built the foundation for a professional career: Jeff methodically worked his way towards successfully owning and operating his own large commercial co-op in the Sierra Nevada foothills. This period honed his expertise in large-scale compliance, nutrient management, and facility optimization.

Jeff’s verifiable expertise and commitment to clean science underpin every Success Nutrients claim. He strongly recommends our comprehensive guide as the foundational knowledge for every grower: The Complete Guide to Cannabis Cultivation Nutrients.
