We at the Cannabis College have a unique opportunity to read and discuss most of the cultivation books available around the world today. The following are some of our favourites as well as a brief description of their relevance.
I LOVE IT
By Michael D. Meredith
Although basic, this book describes how Cannabis grows in a way that is easily understood by both beginners and those who have already tried a few gardens. The information presented was collected from an 18-year old case study. In full-colour and available in six languages, this is a great book for the first time grower.
