This is another "Professor Grow Guide," part of a series of books dedicated to helping people grow successfully. Growing Sativa is a step-by-step guide aimed at Medical Marijuana patients and caregivers. It covers all the basics so a beginning grower can set up and grow their medicine safely and cost effectively. The authors go into detail on how to set up a good clean growing area, practice preventative maintenance, and detect nutrient deficiencies. They give you instructions to help keep your indoor grow safe, inexpensive and under the radar. There are defined schedules for lighting, watering and fertilizing the plants, to help people who don't want to go through trial-and-error. And Professor Grow tells you how to save money by building your own dehumidifier, odor neutralizer, and more. They even tell you how to time your harvest if you don't know the flowering period of your Sativa strain.

The glossary of terms is very extensive and provides the new grower with definitions of the many terms that are bandied about when talking about growing.
