That headline may sound like I'm trying to sell the book, but it really is a comprehensive, exhaustive and highly detailed reference manual that covers every aspect of marijuana horticulture from A to Z.Over 500 pages (all in full color) and arranged in color-coded sections to help you navigate the abundance of information. I may be wrong, but there does not seem to be a particular order for these sections, but this book isn't meant to be a guide for novices that holds your hand in explaining how the plant grows all the way through to the harvest and cure. Don't get me wrong, all of that information and more is in the book, but it's not put together in a natural flow from equipment to seed to harvest. It's more of an encyclopedia that includes everything - you just have to find it.Tons of color photographs and lots of great illustrations sometimes do a better job of explaining things than the text itself, but if you're a visual person like me, you're greatly appreciate that approach.I dock it one star for two reasons. It has more than a few ads interspersed throughout the guide selling certain products. I've never seen that done and it seems like a biased approach. It's a $30 book, so the ads seem unnecessary. More importantly, I sometimes found it difficult to sift through 500 pages to find the information I was looking for. The info is in there, but given the sheer amount of information, you can spend a lot of time trying to find what you want.I'm constantly referring to this book, so if you're serious about growing, you must buy this book. You don't need to read it cover to cover, but you'll need it far more than you think you will.As I mentioned, this isn't a 1-2-3 "learn how to grow book" and that's a good thing. If you're just starting out or just considering building your own grow op, I highly recommend Grow Great Marijuana: An Uncomplicated Guide to Growing the World's Finest Cannabis, which is a no-nonsense guide to learning how the plant grows, what equipment you need and how to work through your first grow. You really need both books, especially if you're just starting out.
There is no greater written resource for someone interested in growing their own marijuana. From seeds to clones, indoors and out, hydro and soil mix, Jorge has the all the goods to get you through to harvest. The photos are excellent and the print quality of this book is the best I've seen. Of special note, check out the nutrient deficiency section; It's been a life-saver for many people. The detailed photos will help identify specific deficiencies, underfeeding and overfeeding as well as pH problems and pest diagnosis and control.Jorge is a mentor to all those interested in cannabis cultivation (including myself). His writing is clear and succinct. His photos are amazing. There isn't a grow book on the market that comes close and that's why everyone in the business calls Indoor Marijuana Horticulture, "The Grower's Bible." The new edition is absolutely comprehensive.Don't forget to check out his new grow DVD as well. It makes a great companion to this excellent book.
Jorge's new book is easily the best grow book ever. I have a large collection of cannabis books and am also the author of The Cannabible series. There is no other grow book ever made that even compares to this masterpiece. A must have in every growers collection! Every question you could possibly have will be answered clearly in this book, whether you are an indoor or outdoor grower. The book is laid out beautifully with TONS of photos. This is the ONLY grow book I recommend to people!
Jorge Cervantes has gone all out on his latest rendition of the Indoor/Outdoor Grower's Bible. It is a well organized book with color coded chapters and easily understood explanations. The color photos alone make the book worth the cost. This is a book that both the professional horticulturalist and the average person can learn from.
I know this book is truly considered the Bible of growing, so I feel like it's herecy to give it a so-so review, but getting through it seems like such a chore. Yes, everything is in there. But it seems like some high tech things are thrown at you like you're supposed to already know what he's talking about, and then something so simple any little kid knows it is explained in exasperating detail. He fires away ideas in random order in one paragraph so the writing lacks a smooth flow of idea and I just can't follow it. While I do think it is worth having, it is a lot easier for me to learn the basics from websites and just keep the book around to use as a quick reference.
Cervantes' latest print of the 'Marijuana Horticulture' is a very complete source of information for the novice and expert grower alike. Not only has the text been completely revised and updated, but the book is now also totally illustrated with beautiful clear pictures and drawings.Jorge's approach to show everything he explains in the book in coloured pictures as well is a very useful one. For people who do not like reading very much it is now also clear to them what he means by just checking the pictures.A truly SERIOUS grow Bible that I recommend to all of our customers.
Im a medical Mj user, and have owned over 30 Mj books, this book is filled with everything you would ever need out over all the other books. The only two other books i would recomend are the "the big book of budd 1 and 2" these are catalog type books with a dream list of different types of Mj. But for the best book on growing Jorge's book is it!
This book had so much information on seeds, nutrients, different lighting, grow rooms. But there was no step by step instruction on actually going about growing. For someone who is interested in private growing and has not grown before, this book was completely useless. If your an expirieneced grower, than this book has lots of info to help improve your growing.
