Cultivate your personal cannabis crop with expert techniques and know-how.
 
As marijuana laws in the United States become less restrictive, more and more people are searching for basic marijuana gardening instructions. But cultivating pot isn’t like growing houseplants or vegetables, especially if you desire maximum potency and yield. It takes precision, and among other things you need female plants, very specific temperature, nutrients, humidity, and lighting at different times during the plant’s lifespan to maximize the quality and quantity of your yield. Idiot’s Guides®: Growing Marijuana covers it all—in a simple, concise way to help you increase both the yield and quality of your personal harvest.
 
Here’s what you’ll find in this clear, visual guide:

• Instructions on how to grow and maintain a small marijuana garden for your own noncommercial use, with more than 500 full-color photos and illustrations
• The full spectrum of options available for growing marijuana, from indoor, climate-controlled systems to open-air, outdoor growing
• Time-tested and modern methods for strain selection, disease and pest prevention, and proper plant nutrition
• Expert advice to yield a consistent and dependable supply of buds
Kevin Oliver is the owner and a managing member of Washington's Finest Cannabis (FineWeed.us), a legal marijuana farm licensed by the Washington State Liquor Control Board.

He has been interviewed frequently as a marijuana industry expert by a variety of media outlets, including NBC's Today show, NPR, Bloomberg, MSNBC, Forbes, Al Jazeera America, and the Daily Caller. Kevin is well-known in the marijuana reform movement as a community organizer, law reform advocate, leader, marijuana farmer, and public speaker. He sits on the board of directors of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and is the executive director of the Washington State Affiliate of NORML.
