" Marijuana Harvest , co-authored by San Francisco Chronicle Cannabis Editor and former Cannabis Now Senior Editor David Downs, is the latest offering in a long legacy of cultivation books released by Rosenthal. And although the 'guru of ganja' has been publicly pushing for homegrown backyard cannabis since the late '70s, Marijuana Harvest arrives at an optimal time when more Americans than ever before have the ability to grow and cultivate marijuana for medical and personal use. The book offers techniques designed to increase the quality and yield of homegrown flowers and pulls from years of research, controlled experiments and interviews with cannabis cultivators on what has worked so far. Marijuana Harvest is designed to teach marijuana growers of all scales how to avoid making costly mistakes, identify problems and solve them quickly and is full of options to jump in on the fun of developing the science around the world's favorite flower with further personal innovation." --Ellen Holland, Cannabis Now Magazine "The information given could well save an inexperienced gardener more than the purchase price of the book in a single harvest, and it makes some points of value for even a seasoned grower." --Grubbycup, Hydrolife Magazine "Anyone with any clout in the cannabis industry recognizes the name, Ed Rosenthal. Now, right in time for harvest season, Ed brings us a new book explaining exactly how the best farmers do it. In Marijuana Harvest , Rosenthal once again collaborates with David Downs, Cannabis Editor for the San Francisco Chronicle .
From the ins-and-outs of chopping down stalks to the extraction methods many growers use, the authors cover the entire spectrum of what happens to cannabis flowers once they are fully developed. Marijuana Harvest is a delightful read--equally informative as it is visually pleasing. We definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in cannabis cultivation. Getting the most out of our bud doesn't stop with the growth cycle. Flowers must be treated with care until the moment they are sold over the counter. Thankfully, Rosenthal and Downs have made this book available just in time to show us how important harvest can be." --Cara Wietstock, Terpenes and Testing Magazine.
