Frequently Asked Questions

How the Virtual Investment Works

What is EGC Crop Investments?

EGC Crop Investments is a digital cultivation platform managed by EGC Holdings. EGC grows and sells cannabis products directly to licensed dispensaries. Members participate virtually through plant sponsorships and share in cultivation-based returns.

How does the virtual investment process work?

Once you join, EGC assigns your virtual plants to an active cultivation batch. You can follow growth stages and sales progress through your dashboard. Once the crop completes, EGC sells to licensed cannabis stores and distributes earnings based on your contribution.

How long does one growth cycle last?

Each cycle typically lasts 7–8 months from seed to sale. This includes planting, flowering, curing, testing, and final distribution to dispensaries.

Membership Minimums & Deposits

Why is there a seven (7) plant minimum?

EGC’s seven-plant minimum ensures operational efficiency and balanced yield distribution. Each plant represents a unit of production that aligns with EGC’s lighting, nutrient, and staffing systems — allowing cultivation to remain cost-effective and sustainable while providing measurable results to each member.

*Minimums are subject to change at EGC’s discretion without prior notice. Adjustments are based on market factors and production capacity.*
Why is there a minimum deposit requirement?

The minimum deposit is required to initiate your batch position and covers essential startup costs — including germination, soil preparation, climate control, and early-phase labor. This deposit ensures each member’s sponsored plants begin with full resource coverage and production readiness.

*Deposit requirements may vary by batch and operational season. Deposits are non-refundable once a cycle begins and female plants are confirmed.*
Can I carry over my deposit to the next cycle?

No. Deposits do not automatically carry over between cultivation cycles. Each new batch requires a reprocessed deposit to confirm participation and allocate your plants under current operating and compliance standards. This ensures proper accounting, resource tracking, and compliance with cannabis cultivation regulations.

*All deposits must be renewed per cycle to maintain compliance with cultivation reporting and financial oversight.*

Payouts, Refunds, and Cancellations

When do I receive payouts?

Payouts are processed 2–3 weeks after each batch is harvested, tested, and sold. Notifications are sent via dashboard and email once your payout is ready.

Can I cancel or request a refund?

Once a cycle begins and your sponsored plants are confirmed female, cancellations and refunds are not available. This is because resources and cultivation materials have already been allocated to production.

Can I reinvest my earnings?

Yes. You can choose to reinvest directly into future cultivation cycles through your EGC dashboard after each payout.

Legal Disclaimers & Compliance

Is EGC a financial investment platform?

No. EGC operates as a cultivation participation program, not a securities or investment product. Members fund operational batches and receive cultivation-based returns, not equity or shares.
