"The Cannabis Breeder's Bible" offers real-world, professional techniques for breeding primo pot and gives precise growing information for 60 popular marijuana varieties. The book covers new hybridization techniques, international seed law issues, protecting new breeds or strains from knockoff artists, shipping seeds and clones, breeding lab designs, product testing, primordial cannabis, landrace and lost strains, common mutations, and more. This useful guide also features a wealth of photographs, instructive illustrations, and in-depth interviews with breeders and seed bank professionals.
This book might be helpful for Cannabis growers who don't have any background in plant breeding and genetics but still want to start their breeding projects. Experienced plant breeders can also benefit from this book by learning about some of the Cannabis-specific breeding goals and issues.
On the other hand, oversimplification of scientific explanations, incorrect uses of botanical terms, and the whole section in which the author expresses his skepticism about the theory of evolution make this book cringy.
