Cannabis Underground Library:
Seven Rare Classics

Seven underground books (from the 60s and 70s) bound into a single volume offer information about cannabis cultivation and preparation. This is by no means an up to date book (there are a lot of better grow guides than this) but the book does contain some good info about growing and using cannabis.

The grow info covers things like growing indoors under fluorescent light (not recommended) as well as methods that have been used successfully outdoors for thousands of years, but there is no info on more modern methods of growing marijuana like hydroponics. The book includes:

  1. The Pot Book
  2. Super Grass Grower's Guide
  3. Consumer's and Dealer's Guide
  4. Supermother's Cooking with Grass
  5. Growing Cannabis Under Fluorescents
  6. Ancient and Modern Methods of Growing
  7. Dr. Atomic's Marijuana Multiplier

Closet Cultivator

Information about growing marijuana in a small area indoors. Discusses hydroponics, controlling odor, lighting, nutrients, water systems, potency, problems, and more. Shows how to establish a high yield garden in a limited space and on a limited budget.

Illustrated with black and white pictures to make things easy to understand. Also includes a small color picture section. A small book (a little over 100 pages) for the intermediate grower. Not for someone only getting one book or the first time grower. This is more of a supplement for the more experienced grower that would like to downsize and grow in a closet or other small space.

Closet Cultivator



Commercial Hydroponics

Mostly about using hydroponics on a large scale, this contains no information about growing marijuana. Because of this, security needed when growing marijuana is not discussed. Might be complicated to someone who doesn't understand hydroponics.

If you are familiar with using hydroponics to grow marijuana and would like to grow outdoors or in a greenhouse on a commercial scale, this is a book that will give you some ideas about how to plan and operate your setup. Has a section about growing vegetables and other crops.
