Your statement below hit the mail on the head

There is plenty there for shareholder confidence if shareholders are not consumed with his mistakes and embrace his accomplishments but as human nature rears its ugly head and says it is far too easy to critique others faults ...then to compliment and encourage their successes...

It is in most people's nature to always stress the negatives and not the positives. You can see it here everyday.

Now Calkin as the CEO has the opportunity as well as the responsibility to be transparent and if he did or will do in the future what is said here almost goes away. I don't want to be too specific for fear of having this post tossed (I am sure you can read between the lines)

There is however plenty of news to report since the last company update and statements that Calkin can make to "man up" and instill confidence of those that are hedging versus the longs whom have patience. Investment is not about making a quick buck but letting your investment grow and mature. For that to happen the CEO needs to instill confidence in the investor who wants to hold long term profits.

I apologize for dancing around here as certain rules apply if you catch my drift

Actually I am waiting until the 1st qtr results of 2015

I agree damm if he does and damm if he doesn't however consider this

When a new CEO comes on board he must gain the confidence of the investors. I personally don't care what he has done in the past but I care about what are you doing for me now with my investment. An investment in the company is an investment in the CEO and everyone else working there.

Yes his vision is there and made plenty of progress

Yes when he released news the stock has gone down for two reasons:
1-The general investing public doesn't know him and he hasn't
gained their confidence
2-People looking for a quick buck have sold on news

So what does he do? Continue to be honest and upfront with what is going on? Or decides that if I stay quiet the PPS will stabilize?

Release news when and if it is relevant and what happens? Flippers will continue to flip however confidence is built among those that want to invest long term. Less shares become available to flip because the longs continue to accumulate (law of supply and demand). Long's gain confidence that we have a CEO who is transparent. It is all up front in the open, no speculation.

If there is no speculation then what happens? PPS stability

When the stock is stable and the longs keep accumulating there are less shares for the flippers and new investors come on board because they see a long term stable transparent company with a CEO is in charge and steering the ship.

Do we want a company that we need to always speculate what is going on or a company that is totally transparent to it's shareholders? Which would you prefer?

For me it is transparency which I believe was one of the objectives that Calkin has committed to....wasn't it?

I totally agree with you mistakes will and do happen and we all learn from them

You don't succeed if you don't make mistakes and anyone that doesn't agree are just plain foolish. I do learn from my mistakes and do my best to make sure they don't happen again or ask for help

Problem here is that Calkin appears to me to be regressing almost to hermit status and hasn't learned from his prior mistakes

What I have expected from him is to be transparent and say "Hey shareholders I made some promises and didn't deliver here is what I am going to do"

He promised FINS by end of July and couldn't deliver until the due date however did deliver them by the due date

He had plans on having the CB Oil back in stock by August 15th however unfort. due to supply issues whatever he could not deliver

We planned on having our website up and operating by August 15th but due to XXX issues he did not and in test mode and expect to have the site up and running by XXXX

Calkin needs to step up and inform his shareholders not go into hermit status. It has been over one month since he updated the shareholders on the status of the company.

I fully understand if there is nothing to report why put out a fluff PR however the FINS have been released, products availability has been further delayed as well as new website status has been delayed will show a CEO in control, at the helm, being upfront and truthful.

I fully understand that it sucks to deliver bad news or news that I did not meet my goals. Had to do it several times myself however when I did and my clients were pissed off to hell yet they all respected me for keeping them informed, sincere in my apologies and made our relationship stronger and more open

That is what I am awaiting from Calkin. Be a leader and give us the good with the bad.

Hint-If you do this the PPS would not have tanked over 500% in the past several months in shareholder value

All the above is my personal opinion

That has been my pet peeve with Calkin as we do not have a full time CEO but a part timer.

As I have posted in the past as GRCU grows and what Calkin is putting in place bears fruit you will see Calkin step aside for a seasoned CEO with experience running a public corporation with experience in sales, production, operations, franchising, worldwide distribution etc and Calkin steps back to a consultant role working on future programs

There is no doubt that Calkin's baby is CCI and that the majority of his time and efforts goes there

This is a long term play and short time investors will continue to manipulate the stock until the programs being out in place start to bear fruit

The launch of the website is a joke being still in test mode and should never has been launched if it doesn't work which is why there was no "official" announcement. I thought they brought on "an experience" individual to take over for Cox which flubbed the initial website launches. This is 2014 where one can go on a web building site for $40 and have a working website up and running in less than 24 hours

Calkin does need to learn that launching something that is "test" and having customer service inform customers that product will be in stock by a certain date and doesn't deliver doesn't instill confidence in the shareholders which has resulted in another 25% drop in the PPS in recent days

Right now the PPS has found a home in the .01 range and could by the end of the week stabilize below .01 which will not be good.

The stock is going to languish in this pit until real things start to happen, websites works, sales and products added

We are close to September and Calkin stated 30 new products by the end of the year. Quite honestly I do not see this happening.
(Please don't give us a flavor range of products then claim that each one is a different product)

We are in for a longer ride than expected and I do not expect to see real stability and PPS making "steady" rises (not a roller coaster) until midyear next year

We are going to need at least the next two FINS if not three with real true growth and profit for GRCU to get attention

It will happen if Calkin puts more effort and time into the company and he stops making false deadline promises such as the recent FINS, website launch and CB Oil back in stock.

If he continues this path the investor community will not believe a word that he says which will only hurt us investors with our investment and we are in for lower lows

Hang tight, keep the faith and let's see what Calkin can do. If he continues down this path he will need to be go however sorry to say that but in the end it is not about Calkin but the company and it's shareholders not one individual no matter what he is the godfather of MMJ or master of hemp or pot guru.

Reputation and contacts does not a successful CEO of a company make but hard work, dedication and results.

Per the etrade website we are already down 5% this morning in pre-opening trading...not a good sign for the day

Right on...my last bit got filled at the EOD dump by the
non-believers

Most likely the last time they will have the opportunity to do a share dump and make a few pennies to buy themselves a "happy meal"

The website at this point is marginal at best-not really impressed myself looks rather bland so a great deal of work needs to be done there

There is NO POP to it-I feel like I am ordering "car parts" however that is just my opinion

I am expecting hopefully early next week a huge update from Calkin as we have not had one for a month

Who wants a PR on a Friday afternoon-usually means bad news not good so let's wait till Monday or Tuesday

The building blocks are there so it is now time to furnish the building and invite all to see

Have been only getting partial fills on my order all day

Placed a 500000 share order @.0122 last night and only getting chunks of 100000 to 150000 shares still have 50000 of my order to get filled hope it gets filled before the news is released

BTW the FINS haven't been posted on my ETrade account yet nor do I see them posted on IHub yet

Maybe it is the broker whom you use

I use etrade and have made buys and sells

Not all went through but many have premarket

I usually see them go through 30 minutes prior to market open

I have placed orders the night before several times and my trades were executed before the market opened they have always been at the ask

I don't think posting the FINS will make must difference on the upside however should not go down

What Calkin need to follow up with is a PR at the open with some updates such as the website going live and the CB Oil back in stock in good quanities

Also some other updates such as marketing and some new products on the new site I believe that we can see gains in the 15-25% for the day but more importantly stability

Yep me too all us longs should be pleased and confident in our positions with the presentation

One of the best if not the best first FINS released by any startup

I especially like the profit margins and next FINS should show a 300-500% increase in gross and profits

I am in 1000% agreement with everything you said

I will admit that I was rather surprised with the detail, simplicity and well presented easy to read statement

It is easy to tell that a lot of thought went into the presentation of GRCU

There is no one that can find any fault with it, claim that they hid anything in their statement

I am extremely surprised and pleased

Calkin came threw which is why I have released my funds to add more to my BRCU holdings

I am even thinking of selling out of a few positions and taking those funds and even adding more.

Calkin has produced the FINS in style!!!!

Kudos to him as I had my doubts and I admit that I was fool for doubting him

If the new CEO is whom the DD posted he appears to be a go getter and willing to do what it takes

It also sounds like he is a no BS person who has rescued another company then went on to sell it

Let's give the guy a chance and hopefully people won't harasses him just yet

Of course will 5 Hr High be shown by Kush this weekend in Seattle

If it is and ANAS is there with Kush well that will add even more credibility

Maybe the timing has worked out

Excellent profit margin

What is interesting is that Mekki is gone however still at CCI

Also that they could save money by outsourcing marketing

What we do know is that commercials are on the horizon so using an outside marketing company do they whole thing makes sense

On the other hand that marketing company will most likely be one of Calkins other companies

Was and wasn't surprised by sales....however GRCU does have a number of products out there and with marketing they will take off

It will be exciting to hear when the national marketing takes place and will they be infomercials or on the one of the shopping channels

Don't know the shopping channels especially if it is a continuous spot

One guy making a killing on the shopping channels is Andrew Lessman who sells all different type of natural vitamins

OK now that Calkin has produced the FINS let's hope for a PR announcing the activation of the website which CB Oil back in "plentiful" stock and some new product announcements

Nice to be on the board today talking about real news and everyone's take on the FINS

I find them to be easy read

We all know with only a few months in operation there wouldn't be much the fact is that they are posted and no extention was asked

They made it by their "chinny chin chin"

Yeah

Where is it I can't find it

Well good to hear that they are out

My confidence in Calkin has been revived and the money that I have
been holding in my account to add more shares get unleashed right now

My buy order is in first thing in the morning at the ask

Who cares that the revenue is now it's time for a HUGE Calkin update in the am

Longs we are on the move and I can assure my fellow longs that it will be nothing but green ahead

Wait to see what happens by the end of tomorrow and that should answer your questions however never go by what is posted on a message board

Do you own DD and make your own decision

there is tons of info on GRCU and it's management available

I believe that they go east coast time (home of the stock market)

Calkin's reputation as a business man is on the clock

The last update was just shy of one month ago

Come on Bobby make some magic happen, there are a lot of shareholders that have faith in your abilities

In my opinion Calkin has until midnight tomorrow to produce

If he stays silent and provides nothing get ready for a bloodbath tomorrow. I see major dumping by many even longs

It will prove to me that he is more focused on CCI then GRCU.

Isn't he already at some event in Seattle where he is giving some talk?

I am patient and have faith however after tomorrow I do not know.

He does have until midnight tonight to file the FINS to be on time so there is still some hope and maybe they get filed on time and tomorrow morning at opening we get the full monty

I agree

fresh blood at the helm who can work with Kush to bring the product to market is what was needed

Let's see what he brings to the table....if he brings transparency
and if professional ANAS will move forward to what it can be or if he is no better than Chris and Manny then the company is doomed

I will give him three months to make his mark and let's see what his first PR will be

I expect him to put out his first PR by the end of next week to lay out his business plan

Very well could be he is buying Manny out of his shares thus the T-Trade

Well Dookie I believe the FINS are important and makes them reporting

In reality how difficult should it be to do the FINS

Calkin was given a clean balance sheet

In reality how much product have they sold in the past few months we aren't expecting much and I wouldn't surprised if they sold less than 10g's of product...it's a startup

Any high school student can do the first FINS for GRCU

We all want great news and forward movement however Calkin stated from day one that they will be a fully reporting company and to me his credibility is on the line

If he fails to produced FINS now then we can expect it to happen on a regular basis

Of course if he has something to hide that is another story

It is better to come clean now and fight the battle sooner than later. If the FINS aren't produced and they report great progress I believe the PPS at best will stay where it is however I would expect a drop of 50% or more

Produce the FINS and no other update and the PPS becomes stable to slight advance

Produce the FINS and great news and we double to triple where are currently at it stabilizes at the higher point

The above is just my opinion not to be taken as any fact

Well don't forget we don't have 100% of Calkin's efforts with his other ventures

As the CEO he needs to approve all documents etc.

Who knows how much time he is even in the office?

As time goes on I see him taking a backseat to a CEO that will devote 100% of his efforts and Calkin becomes a consultant

All is fine as Calkin is laying the groundwork however the time will come when GRCU will need a full time CEO

Calkin has indicated that he may sell CCI however I doubt it as it is his baby and no one will pay for "sentimental" value of a company

I agree 100% Calkin put out the bait about end of month and he didn't deliver

His reputation is now on the line to post them on time

They can't be difficult and can easily be certified by any accountant

Their financials are not that tough with only 90 days to report as he started with a ZERO balance sheet

He is on the clock.....He hasn't posted fluff at all and is putting the pieces in place

With a financial guru on his staff the FINS are easy unless they have something to hide?

LET"S GET READY TO RUMBLE[/b

The hell with Washington's I prefer the Benjamin's

Why sail on a dingy when you can have a custom ship

I feel like I submitted a bid on a huge contract and awaiting word if I won the bid....the air is getting so thick that you can cut it with a knife

I agree and have stated it many times

He has too much on his plate and we are getting 100% of his full time efforts

There is a conflict of interest with his other venues which he owns but it is what it is

A post several days ago I gave my opinion that I would not be surprsied as the company grows and the product hits the streets that Calkin becomes the company consultant working on future projects and a CEO with public company operating experience takes the helm

Either way first you need to lay the ground work and move from there

I beleive that we are on the ground floor of a company that will be around for years

Once the FINS are published as well as company update we will lose the non investors of the company and we investors can have intelligent conversation about the company

On the other side of the spectrum what is your excuse going to be when they do post their FINS by the 15th of August in the year 2014?

What about if they post today, tomorrow or Thursday? Does that not count on your offer?

The question is who will be left standing here?

What I do know is that the longs are standing long and strong and not getting involved in the hissy fits

Maybe we are better getting the news after the close on Friday as it may have driven away those that are looking to make a quick flip and do their part in manipulating the truth

I thought today was a rollercoaster....started out real good and promising then started to yo-yo all day.

However a green day is a green day. With the way the day started I really thought that we would get a "set-up" PR to the FINS. When late morning came and no news the roller coaster started.

For sure HALT will be one

HOT
AND
LUCRATIVE
TIMES

for all Longs of GRCU

Yes it is and I agree

We will know if Calkin is "IN THE HOUSE" or if Calkin "HAS LEFT THE HOUSE"

I beleive he is in the house but has been in hiding due to sticking his foot in his mouth with his statement about the FINS

This week there will be no excuse

They are due the 15th of August or he is late. I for one believe that he will pull it out with seconds to spare, he may surprise and put them out a little earlier however if he doesn't or puts in for an extention shareholders will be paying us longs to take their shares away from them. Not that I mind however if the PPS sinks any lower it will be a greater hole to dig out than it is now

Where we are now we will be fortunate to hit .03 to .05 by years end. I thought we would be more in the .25 at the end of the year but with instability of the PPS we can hope to be where we were months ago flirting with .05 PPS

Let's go Calkin "LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!"

Anyone that bases their investment decisions on promises is a fool and anyone that doesn't sell when going down when they can't afford to lose is also a fool

I stayed for one reason and that was the association with Kush Creams on the 5 Hr High

If they didn't make that agreement I would have sold and that was not because of a promise but a fact that Kush Creams verified on their website

Will they be successful or even put the product out? Why knows however that is what I am banking on

Then someone must have hacked onto their website and posted this in their news section

http://kushcreams.com/alternaturals-taps-kush-creams-to-produce-and-distribute-5-hour-high-its-newest-product/

Several points to consider

#1-Nobody put a gun to anyone's head to invest in the stock

#2-Nothing prevented anyone from selling the stock at any time
at a profit or to minimize their loses or is preventing anyone from selling out of their position

#3-It is the resposibility for all investors to do their own DD and to invest only what they can afford to lose in any stock

#4-For those that are currently down on the stock and have not sold have lost nothing to date as a lost only happens when you sell the stock

Am I an investor in the company? Yes

Have I added to my share total during the downturn to average down? Yes

Do I blame anyone other than my myself for investing in the company? No

Do I believe that 5 Hour Shot will come to market? Yes

Am I disappointed with the lack of information from the company? Yes

Did I invest in the company to make a quick buck? No

Did I invest in the company as a long term investment of one year of more? Yes

Did I invest what I can lose if the my entire investment is lost? Yes

Did I do my own DD on the company? Yes

You'll be just fine at your entry point

You'll have a HUGE smile on your face and your pockets will be stuffed with cash

Just hold on for a year and you will be rewarded

I have a Ferrari 458 and a Lambo Aventator with my name on it when I sell just a quarter of my shares aftre holding for a year (don;t want to share alarge chunk of my profits with Uncle Sam who takes no risk on my investment).

I have a bunch also stuffed away in my Roth IRA account for safekeeping for the future

This company is being built for the long term and I beleive it will be the first Canabis compnay that will be uplisted

I see growing operations, worldwide product distribution, franchising in the future

I know this will tick off a few of the Calkin admirers out there I can also see Calkin stepping aside in the day to day operation of the company within one year and the BOD puts in high level CEO expereinced with operations, production, distribution, sales, marketing etc with international experience within the next 24-36 months once Calkin has laid down the foundation

This will free up Calkin to continue on the legal, education and long term plans of the company

The above is just my opinion and not to be taken on as fact. Do your own DD and make your decisions accordingly.

What about a military clock? It can only be wrong once a day then!!!

Have a great weekend and get ready for the major excitement or major disappointment next week

No doubt next week is going to be the first major milestone with Calkin as CEO

What he does next week will either stabilize and move the stock up in a green climb or it will be a huge bloodbath and could drive the PPS into the .000X range

I am thinking maybe two PR's next week. An early week setting the stage for the FINS on the 15th. I do not beleive that we will see the FINS before the deadline. I see a very late Thursday evening release

Will the boat leave the dock with El Capitan' Calkin or will the boat stay moored at the dock?

Tick Tock Calkin is on the clock!!!!

I would be happy just to some type of company update first

Once that happens the PPS will react accordingly

The last two PR although gave a great updates was not kind to the PPS

This time around the PPS needs to strengthen and stabilize

This has been the first week in a long time that we actually ended the week overall in the green

GRCU building for long term growth, industry leadership and financial freedom for the longs
