About the Project

At Vulcan Construction Group, we work with some of the industry’s most exciting companies, growers, and cultivation experts to create high-end custom cultivation facilities. 710 Labs is one of those companies. 710 Labs is an award-winning multi-state cannabis brand. They are known throughout the industry for growing the richest flavored, organic, small-batch cannabis on the planet. They work hard at finding and refining the best genetics, so we wanted to provide them with the most up-to-date and future-proof cultivation facility in Colorado.

How It Started

How It's Going

Project Details

Full Service Construction

Vulcan Construction prides itself on being a full-service construction group that coordinates a wide range of general contracting services, including electrical, plumbing, metal framing, drywall, FRP, and flooring. Vulcan Construction Group houses a team of professional experts who specialize in construction, lighting, plumbing, irrigation, and more. The 710 Labs project allowed us to put to work all of our services. We have highlighted some of the details in this Case Study.

Vertical Cultivation

The 710 Labs grow includes a Mother Room and Veg Room, allowing 710 Labs to grow out “Mothers” of strains they want to produce in this specific grow. The grow also has a Veg Room. This room allows 710 labs to grow plants out to a specific size before they are moved to the flower room, ensuring effective space use in the Flower Room. The Mother Room and Veg Room take advantage of Vertical Cultivation. By using the vertical growing model, growers can take advantage of vertical space to maximize their yield, sometimes by as much as three times. Growing plants vertically makes use of racking systems and wall-mounted systems, allowing plants to receive adequate lighting and excellent airflow. Vertical systems maximize space, saving room, money, and resources.

Irrigation

At Vulcan Construction Group, we know the benefits of a state-of-the-art irrigation system. Large cultivations facilities, like the 710 Labs project, require a dialed-in irrigation system to cut costs and ensure an abundant successful crop. The batch and drip systems provide the needed flow to both the vertical cultivation rooms and the large flower rooms.

Fertigation

The 710 Labs grow utilizes Fertigation in all the various grow rooms to provide the plants’ optimized nutrients depending on their state of growth. Fertigation is the process of delivering fertilizer to plants using an automated delivery system. Fertilization is beneficial in two ways. Firstly, fertigation reduces the time your team needs to spend measuring, mixing, and distributing fertilizer. Secondly, fertigation systems allow fertilizer to be distributed with the greatest accuracy, reducing the possibility of human error.

Lighting

We worked with 710 Labs to create a lighting plan that would make their grow efficient and abundant. By combining systems like vertical growing with custom LED setups and large rooms with advanced HID lighting, 710 Labs now has optimized light output throughout their facility.

HVAC

Keeping cannabis crops happy and healthy involves keeping plants at the perfect temperature, balancing humidity, and controlling airborne contaminants with air filtration systems. Conventional HVAC systems aren’t designed to monitor or control humidity, so they often make cannabis cultivation facilities too dry. The 710 Labs facility has many rooms that required various HVAC needs. Vulcan has ensured each room can operate at capacity with highly controlled HVAC systems.

Metal Framing

Metal Framing was used as much as possible throughout the 710 Labs project. Metal framing, opposed to wood framing, is far more resistant to factors like moisture, weight, fire, and pests. In cannabis cultivation, these qualities are highly desirable and help to create a more efficient growing environment.

Flooring

Vulcan used both epoxy and urethane flooring to provide 710 Labs with the optimal grow facility floors. The ideal cultivation facility or dispensary flooring will be level, seamless, durable, and will require little effort to clean. Not only do epoxy and urethane provide these things, but these finishes also protect floors from wear and tear as well as the extra benefit of making drainage easy to manage. Epoxy and urethane coating also provides for chemical resistance. Last, the epoxy and urethane floors sparkle. This luster will not fade or discolor over time. With regular cleaning, the floor will always look brand new.

Drywall

Vulcan Construction Group has specialized in Drywall Installation for more than 17 years. All the various rooms in the 710 Labs project, from bathrooms to offices to hallways and more, required both wall and ceiling drywall.

Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic

Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) is a stylish, innovative, long-lasting material that withstands most climates, contains durable materials, and produces long-term savings. This makes it perfect for walls around grow rooms like those at 710 Labs. The waterproof and corrosion resistance along with little maintenance needed in the future made this material an easy choice.
