The Science and Technology of Medical Cannabis Cultivation
Instructed by Bruce Bugbee, Mitchell Westmoreland, Royal Heins, Brian Corr
This unique university-level course is open to the general public and provides an in depth understanding of how to optimize cannabinoid yield in Cannabis. We are continuously reviewing the emerging scientific literature to determine best practices for:
- Nutrition, fertilizers, and media
- HID and LED lighting
- Temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide enrichment
- Flowering and photoperiod
- Propagation
- Harvesting and curing
- Pest and disease management
