This is a must-have book for all commercial and hobby growers - it serves as a production guide to cannabis producers, researchers, industry supporters and students!! Contains comprehensive information on all aspects of cannabis production. There are a few hundred large and many small cannabis production operations in North America - contact them. Contact suppliers including fertilizer companies, insect control companies, pathogen control companies, water treatment companies, greenhouse and environmental control companies, and lighting companies. Many countries are legalizing the medical use of cannabis the medical use and recreational use of cannabis - this teaches users optimal drug harvesting techniques for key quality through controlled environments. Although there are many books published on cannabis, they do not focus on cultivation - this book is the first of its kind (the proposal reviewers say it is desperately needed) and is written by scientists at different universities or research institutions who have been conducting cannabis research; some chapters are written in collaboration with university trained practitioners who are currently involved in commercial cannabis production. University of Guelph has developed and currently teaching a fourth-year undergraduate course titled "Cannabis Production." More institutions, both in Canada and in other countries, are currently planning to offer this course to more and more students.

"This book provides an informative global perspective on soilless culture systems (SCS) around the world...the book promises to bring together the current best practice in SCS horticulture to create an important industry reference for all participants." ISHS - Chronica Horticulturae Soilless cultivation techniques (including hydroponic systems) have attracted growing attention as a way of growing horticultural crops more efficiently without taking up more land. These controlled environment systems are also less vulnerable to climate change and are particularly suited to urban farming as part of the shift to more localised, circular food systems. Advances in horticultural soilless culture provides a comprehensive assessment of recent research in this important area, paying close attention to the advances in optimising substrates for soilless cultivation, as well as the developments in solid and liquid-medium container systems, fertigation systems, modelling and process control. The collection includes case studies on horticultural crops such as tomatoes, strawberries and ornamentals. With its distinguished editor and international range of expert authors, Advances in horticultural soilless culture will be a standard reference for university and other researchers involved in horticultural science, hydroponics and soilless cultivation. It will also be a valuable resource for government and other agencies supporting vertical and urban farming systems, as well as companies involved in this sector.
