Book Description

Publication Date: October 28, 2007

This handy, simple guide walks the novice — or budget-minded — gardener through the entire process of cultivating marijuana. Unlike most such books that feature costly high-tech equipment, this one emphasizes household fluorescent bulbs and other inexpensive, easily available supplies. Marijuana Buds for Less is organized around a boldly photographed day-to-day planner, with each page a day in the life of the garden. Growers have a visual reference of their plant's progress with instructions on watering, feeding, lighting, and caretaking.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unrealistic approach, June 14, 2009

This review is from: Marijuana Buds for Less: Grow 8 oz. of Bud for Less Than $100 (Paperback)

I'm not sure what compelled me to buy this book, but I bought quite a few all at one time. Out of the bunch, this book was the least useful. I got the sense that the author wanted to draw people in with a catchy title, but for most growers, this isn't an appropriate strategy.

Most growers I know are more than willing to spend the extra dollars it takes to set up a more comprehensive and reliable grow op. If you have all the free time in the world and you want to spent your afternoons at home depot and still not really produce mind-blowing buds with a decent yield, sure this might be your book.

If you're going to take risks with your freedom and safety, avoid this book and going down this path. There are plenty of quality books from Marijuana Horticulture to Grow Great Marijuana and they pretty much agree on the same techniques whether you're growing one plant or hundreds.

Not recommended.

It's a nice enough book for what it is. It is a grow journal, not a real how to book. Lighting, the most important aspect of the grow, is glossed over. He doesn't really tell the reader how to set up the grow. You could get better how to info for free with a simple internet search. As a grow journal, it is an entertaining read.

2.0 out of 5 stars Direct to the circular file, April 20, 2010

This review is from: Marijuana Buds for Less: Grow 8 oz. of Bud for Less Than $100 (Paperback)

The book starts with some simple supplies for a soil based grow, preparation of soil and watering technique, PH basics followed by some basic electrical/lighting information. The remainder of the book is a daily grow journal. A hodge-podge of quotes and 'factoids' litter pages of photos of the day-to-day process with sparse descriptions. There is a small sprinkling of information throughout which is sometimes inconsistent with first hand accounts/grow-logs posted on internet resources. The results are a decent if unremarkable looking finished product. On the other hand, it would be an insanely good return on investment for the beginner (ostensibly the motivation for purchasing this book). It should be thought of as an extended grow-log (like one might find on an internet forum) in book form. Some things that were left out are fans, ventilation and air filtering, light reflectors, plant training & topping, and plant nutrients (miracle-grow pre-fertilized mix is used in this book). It serves as a good grow-log of the mango variety in a single-cola setup under smallish spiral CFL lights, so it satisfied my curiosity.
