Why did you write this book?\n\n\n\nTo create a primer for potential pot growers to get started simply and easily. My book is an entry-level introduction to the many different concepts and techniques that ensure successful harvests, right from the beginning. I've broken down every stage of growth to it's basics to try to give anyone, including those without a green thumb, a healthy start down to path of growing their own\ncannabis. It's a step-by-step guide that's easy to read and understand.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. What gives you the authority to write this book?\n\n\nSimply put, I know good weed. I've been growing and working with pot for almost 30 years. I've judged more High Times\nCannabisCups than anyone on earth. It's safe to say I've also visited more marijuana grows than anyone on earth, from the tiniest closets and tents to massive outdoor, greenhouse and warehouse facilities. I've moderated and been on countless cultivation panels at events around the world with all of the top experts in marijuana growing. Due to my travels, I've been able to absorb multiple different ways to produce pot and discern which are the easiest and most effective.\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Why should people learn to grow their own pot?\n\n\nThere's no better feeling than creating your own medicine and no better hobby than home cultivation. Plus, it's much cheaper and you know exactly what went into it. You know the strain and whether pesticides were used on it. Also, most commercially grown\ncannabisisn't flushed, dried or cured properly. When you grow your own, you get a superior and affordable product for pennies to the dollar. Plus it's fun!\n\n\n\n\n4. Will intermediate and expert growers benefit from this book?\n\n\nAbsolutely! The book includes many important tips and tricks to increasing yields and producing bigger harvests. Concepts such as creating your own mother-plants will greatly benefit growers of all levels of expertise.\n\n\n\n\n5. Why did you choose illustrations over photographs?\n\n\nI think many of the concepts are easier to understand from simple illustrations. Techniques such as cloning or pruning can be tough to digest when presented in a complicated textbook-style manner. I seek to simplify the process down to its essential elements and drawings convey that better than photos.\n\n\n\n\n6. How much does it cost to get started growing your own pot?\n\n\nProspective growers can get started for under $1000 dollars, depending on how and where they choose to grow. In this book, I illustrate how someone on a limited budget can purchase a simple grow tent and some lighting, then supplement with some air circulation and purification equipment and be well on their way to self-sufficiency.\n\n\n\n\n7. What are the two biggest mistakes new growers make?\n\n\nOverfeeding and overwatering. Sometimes the best thing to do is just to get out of the plant's way. That's not to say to ignore it - you must stay vigilant about potential pests and problems - but let it grow without interference if everything is looking healthy.\n\n\n\n\n8. What's the best advice you can give to a new grower?\n\n\n\"Never put minor before major.\" I received this advice early on in my growing career and have put it to good use ever since.
