First I downloaded his book for free but it is such a good book , that I said for myself:
buy the book. the author deserves to be paid. so I bought the e book version on Amazon and I would never regret it. this man is a doctor when we talk about Cannabis.
When someone in Germany would ask me how I learned how to grow, I literally share the link of this video and tell them these are the Droids you are looking for 😀
sounds like nod to jet set 1:55 who remembers high life magazine?
Stephen Colbert is a charlatan you are a man of integrity
Ed handled this pushy super cringey interview with class.
Now that I grow…..I use less. Must be the aromatherapy. 😊
Built my house in 2018, in 2019 I grew my first time in my own yard which I’ve been SUPER EXCITED. Truly a dream of mine.
Outdoor cultivation has been a love of mine and nowadays I feel like I’ve dialled in some aspects of creating my own version of super soil. Making compost teas are another thing I’ve learned, growing organically and learning is always in my mind season to season.
It never gets old
I thought about buying his book I probably should get it
2:12 you could do ipm this far into flower? I thought you weren’t supposed to spray the bug..
Weed is for everyone. Not everyone can smoke it but there are other ways to consume it. The medicine is for everyone. I notice the landrace strains are better for everyone as opposed to the present day strains. 🇧🇴👊🏿
Why is kyle so pushy with the usage? Seems weird and made the convo uncomfortable.
I've meet him before he's legit
I love to grow do you give out beans if so I would love to try you genetics
I love the Grow Handbook, so much information.
Ed's humor is hilarious 😂
"Im over 3 years in this"🤣
Omg is that ever true !
Should be treated as both a fruit and vegetable
High Times is what got the full bedroom grow started. Get seeds out of Amsterdam was the ticket.
My dad had surgery which left him crippled, that caused depression and insomnia, so my brother and I introduced our Dad to pot he was finally able to sleep and able to leave the house. He got his life back praise the plant,🙏 RIP Pop
Thank you, thank you, thank you Ed. I smoked for 38 yrs I quit after not being able to cop any bud without driving 200 home to Miami FL. So now I've got two tents so I'll be my own medicine growner.
I speak your language I can cook 😊
I love Ed. Former student of Ed’s. Class of 1984. lol. Still growing and smoking.
Actually weed is addictive depending on whose using it. About 10% of us will develop an addiction to Cannabis.
I'm psychologically addicted, does it bother me? No, but we need to be transparent with ourselves here if we want people who stigmatize it to accept Cannabis.
Legend!
1.5 lbs of blue cheese and white widow this year! I enjoy a portion and then make edibles for family and friends. You can make about 50 to 60 gummies/ per quarter ounce! It’s amazing how much $$$$ you save by growing your own.
Respects to the pioneers and ogs like Ed and Jack (rip). Big ups mate from the land downunda mate. One love.
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Your the worst interviewer
I bought an Ed Rosenthal book over 30 years ago. He was the master.
Can't trust the government, and yes it was murder…. over grow the government
9;33 timestamp —- Hygene..haaa as appose to high genes.. omg that made me laugh..
It’s not addictive… why do I get super withdrawals when I stop smoking then…
Weed definitely is addictive. Try smoking for years and stopping cold turkey. Don’t come at me if you’ve never tried to stop smoking.
I just like growing plants.
