Growing marijuana is as old as the silk road.  Dating its history is like trying to trace the advent of rope, paper, or ritual herbs. The modern commercial cannabis industry however is a recent and distinct phenomenon, replete with publicly traded companies, ever increasing product categories, flashy brands, and social media influencers that include rap and country superstars.  

Though the industry seemingly emerged overnight, many long time cannabis activists and growers still remember different times when growing or carrying a joint of this alluring plant could lead to jail time; and though the industry evolutions continue at a rodeo level pace, we are at this moment poised at a time when the recent historical roots of cannabis stigmatization and illegality still have a huge influence on the most fundamental element of cannabis culture: cultivation. 

As the marijuana plant journeys forth into the light of societal acceptance, so too do clandestine and guerilla grow operations make the next steps forward into mainstream agricultural practices.  Cannabis Farming is a book written with this premise in mind.

Authors Adam Davidoff and Ryan Power leverage their voices as seasoned outdoor organic vegetable farmers and early adopters of legalization in the California cannabis market to document their journey as cannabis seed breeders and cannabis flower farmers, spending the better part of a decade mastering the many facets of cultivation systems, equipment, and innovative methods of genetic development, including founding the F1 hybrid, performance agricultural cannabis seed company Atlas Seed.

Adam and Ryan created Cannabis Farming as a timely offering to the growing cannabis growing community, and the book is best understood as an agricultural journal replete with experiential reflections, as well as a manual that standardizes and normalizes cannabis as a truly unique plant, albeit grown just like any other flower or vegetable. 

Cannabis Farming is written with a down to earth voice in farmers language, and documents tips, tricks, and practical perspectives that will allow growers to succeed at any scale outdoors. This comprehensive text has something to offer both beginner growers and veteran cultivators alike, and is a must have to add to the connoisseurs collection!
