Cannabis Cultivation Technician Staffing
Hemp Temps places cultivation technicians, growers, and IPM specialists for indoor, outdoor, and greenhouse cannabis operations. From entry-level cultivation assistants to experienced lead growers.
Cultivation Staffing — What We Provide
Cannabis cultivation requires workers who understand plant biology, growing environments, pest and disease management, and state-specific METRC tracking for seed-to-sale compliance. Hemp Temps staffs cultivation operations ranging from small dispensary-attached grow rooms to large commercial indoor and outdoor facilities.
Our cultivation workers range from entry-level plant care assistants to experienced cultivation technicians with IPM and fertigation knowledge. We pre-screen for cultivation-specific experience and compliance eligibility before placement.

How Cultivation Staffing Works
Tell us your facility type — indoor rooms, greenhouse, or outdoor — and the mix of roles you need, from plant-care assistants to IPM specialists and fertigation techs. Hemp Temps pre-screens for cultivation-specific experience and state compliance eligibility, so workers arrive familiar with plant handling and METRC seed-to-sale tracking basics. Standing requests typically fill within 24 hours; specialized leads may take a little longer.
Hemp Temps carries the employment relationship — payroll, employment taxes, and workers' comp — and you approve hours in the app. Billing is the worker's rate plus a 43% all-in fee (30% admin, 10% placement, 3% processing), with background checks and HTU training included and no buyout fee for temp-to-perm conversion. That flexibility matters most in cultivation, where headcount needs swing with the grow cycle. Full pricing breakdown.
