Hello man, well for eveything that concerns cannabis growing, you can start by our books section on the forum you will find a lot of links to growing books like the grow bible and many others, they will teach you the basis to know about growing cannabis, will make you confortable with the vocabulary also. you will find also in the Grow guru section lots of threads about various technics of growth, supercropping, scrog, etcetera.. once you will handle the basis you will be able to read those :)

Basically the most known book about growing is "The grow bible" written by Jorge cervantes, it is a good starter to see what you are talking about and later on you can go deeper in more advanced books.

If you are going to go in botanic in general, then i can not really help you, i've read a few books that were not related to cannabis when it comes to nutrient etc.. but would not be able to tell you the name lol, and i don't know what tools are really usefull when it comes to batonic in general i guess there are many subjects that we do'nt even mention most of the time.

But the best way to learn once you have the basis is to grow it and learn with personal experience, it is the best for me :) And if you stay around the forum and share with us all your grow the members will for sure give you tips and advices during your grow if we see something is not right :)

Good luck and welcome in the growing world, once you get in it you never go out ;)

horticulture course is a good place to start, but i seriously doubt you'll learn anything to do with ganja.

horticulture courses really only teach you about plants that are edible or farmed. You will probably touch on such subjects as, hydroponics, agronomy and agriculture as well, if it has something to do with food crops. You'll also learn about composts, fertilizers and probably how to drive a tractor as well. If it has something to do with farming food or animals you'll probably learn it here

this will be more than enough to set you on a good path for growing some decent weed and really understanding it.

If you want to press it further you can go into studying Botany. This will be more in depth and will deal with all types of plants, ofc this requires college/university and a few years of intense study.

Theres a book called, Marijuana Botany, and i think its R C Clarks college Thesis, which i suppose won him his degree in Botany. If you havent read it, then its a great book to have in the library. Probably still the best book on Ganja around.

Purpose of Strain Hunters

Our planet is home to millions of species of animal and plants with their own habitat, and each plays a unique role in the perfect design of nature. Unfortunately many species of plants and animals are victim of uncontrolled human development. The sole intent of Strain Hunters is to identify, locate and retrieve cannabis landraces that have not yet been studied, in order to give scientists and doctors the possibility to further enhance knowledge of the cannabis plant in the medicinal field.


Preservation of Landraces

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.

Cannabis should not be illegal


One of the goals of the United Nations, published years ago in official reports, was to wipe out the cannabis plant from the face of the earth by the year 2010. In reality this is far from being achieved, because man keeps using the cannabis plant for religious, medicinal and recreational purposes no matter what the law says. Most cultures cannot comprehend how a plant can be made illegal. In most people’s perception, plants and animals stand above a status of legality or illegality, they just exist in a higher design of nature that goes beyond human laws and regulations.

Nevertheless most governments of cannabis- producing countries are implementing drastic measures to destroy crops. Dangerous chemicals are sprayed over fields and over the farmers themselves in most of the third world countries, and the poorest people of the planet are the ones paying the highest price for cultivating a plant that does not kill. But in the economy of scale, where demand dictates supply, the poorest people of the planet have no choice but to cultivate cannabis as a cash crop to feed their children and send them to school. Communities that are isolated in remote areas in the poorest regions of the planet are often the keepers of very special landraces.
