Student Testimonials
Learned So Much
"I loved everything about this course! I have learned so much and now when I look at a plant, It's more than just a plant...it's science!
Its so nice to finally be able to have the tools needed to find the answers to my questions. On the internet there are so many forums and websites and you don't know which are accurate. The websites and material you have shown me are actual proof to questions I have had. You've answered every question I've had and your course has allowed me to understand the plant more. Can't wait to discover more! Thank you again, you guys are awesome!!"
Blown Away
“...I have read a lot of books on Cannabis botany and science and the text and materials in this class blows them away!”
Can't Wait for Level II
“I can’t wait to take the level II course when it is offered.”
