Marijuana Grower's Handbook: Ask Ed Edition

Product Information

The chapter concludes with ' Dahlia Staircase', which is a description of a project (with excellent images, see above) and acts as a rough 'how to' guide, with plenty of scope for the reader to make it their own design. The Seed section describes techniques for production from seed and factors to consider, before we move on to the Tend section of the chapter, which describes moving young plants to their growing beds, preparing Dahlia tubers, bulbs and corms and setting up your planted space for winter.

In this book, I share the knowledge and techniques you need for success in all aspects of vegetable gardening, based on my decades of experience. There are hundreds of grow books out there, both good and bad; some are aimed at beginners, some at more advanced growers. Not as much as I am for living plants, which I prefer to gift, but 100% more than for imports with a high environmental tariff. I am new and looking for loads of experience, I am from south Africa and I want to head to Holland or somewhere where I could live and learn from the best? Widely accepted as the greatest of these books is Marijuana Horticulture: The Indoor/Outdoor Grower’s Bible by Jorge Cervantes.Twelve years later, and this landmark book was the first notable publication to thoroughly describe another revolutionary technique, the now-ubiquitous Screen of Green (SCROG) — in which plants are pruned and trained to produce an even canopy, so that light penetration and yield are maximized.

The carbon footprint is high, the water consumption, often in areas of low rainfall is vast and the market is driven by events like Valentine's Day where flowering roses really have no place in the UK in the second week of February.

It is vibrantly illustrated with images of the crops he grows at his market garden Homeacres, which are refreshingly unromantic and so genuinely complementary to the written guidance, making this a feast for both the brain and eyes. Indeed, the first step, he tells us, is to set a ‘mission statement’; decide what it is you want from your garden space and use it to help keep you on track. In fact, The Rev even gives invaluable information about making your own organic fertilizers, pesticides and more. For the dedicated organic farmer, [this book] is a gold mine of astonishing methods and new possibilities for growing and maintaining a sustainable and truly organic garden.
