Info autore
Adam Davidoff,
Ryan Power, and
William Hancock own New Family Farm in Sebastopol, California. Davidoff and Power were among the first growers to cultivate cannabis in a standard agricultural production system, inventing novel production techniques, tractor equipment, labor processes, and post-harvest technology. Recognizing the need for cannabis seed with the right genetics for field growing, they started Atlas Seed. They can be found online at thenewfamilyfarm.com and atlasseed.com.
Riassunto
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.
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. 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.
Now is the perfect time to start growing cannabis for profit!
