Start your own organic cannabis farm with this complete how-to manual written by two farmers with a decade of experience growing cannabis in the field. Now is the perfect time to start growing cannabis for profit. Cannabis is rapidly being decriminalized across the country, causing a surge in consumer demand and enabling growers to cultivate cannabis in the open, rather than secretly in greenhouses. Field-grown cannabis is easier to grow organically and requires fewer inputs, and the newer varieties used in field cultivation mature more quickly than traditional cultivars, meaning less cultivation time is needed in the field.
Whether you're a small-scale vegetable farmer who wants to add a high-value crop or a home cannabis grower who wants to expand their operation, authors Adam Davidoff and Ryan Power can help you get growing. They were some of the first vegetable farmers in California to start growing cannabis as a field crop, and have even developed their own cannabis strains that are adapted to field growing rather than indoor cultivation--specifically, those that don't need a set amount of sunlight in order to flower. Called "autoflowering" or "day-neutral" varieties, they are capable of reaching a harvestable stage in as little as 60 days. Over the last ten years, Davidoff and Power have developed expertise that few others have. In
Cannabis Farming, they pass on their knowledge to allow you to grow, harvest, and process cannabis in the field using all organic methods.
