This will be a home for all things related to the cultivation of cannabis. The preferred focus here will be organic and sustainable growing methods, but any cannabis growers or growers-to-be are welcome!

The moderator and community creator here is in a legal cannabis state. It is therefore assumed that everyone sharing photos and info about their grows is also doing so legally. If you're not, then keep that to yourself. Any mention of actively conducting a cannabis grow illegally will be removed. This is to protect our instance admin, and will be a zero-tolerance policy.

Happy growing!

With sales of legal cannabis expected to more than double by 2030, producers of the nation's sixth-most valuable crop have a problem: Cannabis has a substantial environmental footprint.

Growing cannabis requires massive water and energy resources while contributing to air, land and water pollution and soil damage.

Indoor grow houses allow farmers to govern the lifecycle of cannabis using artificial lighting and climate control, which enables rapid turnaround for sometimes dozens of harvests each year.

For some growers, the cutting edge of sustainability in cannabis has moved toward energy generation.

To survive the second decade of recreational legalization, cannabis farmers will have to be as resilient as the plants they cultivate.
