Welcome back to Grow Guides! In Episode 5 of our 50-part series, we're getting into one of the most important parts of growing cannabis: plant nutrition.
What nutrients do cannabis plants actually need? What's the difference between mineral and organic nutrients? And with so many brands, bottles and additives available, how do you know what you should be using?
This week, we break down the world of cannabis nutrients, looking at some of the most popular commercial nutrient brands, including Advanced Nutrients, CANNA and BioBizz. We discuss base nutrients, additives, supplements and the differences between the various feeding systems available to growers.
But we're not stopping at shop-bought nutrients!
We also explore organic growing and the fascinating world of Korean Natural Farming (KNF), looking at traditional methods growers can use to make their own plant feeds and beneficial preparations.
Topics include:
What nutrients do cannabis plants need?
Mineral nutrients versus organic nutrients
Popular nutrient brands: Advanced Nutrients, CANNA and BioBizz
Base nutrients, additives and supplements
Organic growing and making your own nutrients
An introduction to Korean Natural Farming (KNF)
Indigenous Microorganisms (IMO)
Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ)
Fermented Fruit Juice (FFJ)
Fish Amino Acid (FAA)
Choosing the right nutrient system for your grow
Whether you're planning to follow a commercial feeding schedule, keep things completely organic, or experiment with making your own nutrients using natural ingredients, we'll help you understand the different options available.
The aim is to give new growers a solid understanding of plant nutrition so they can make an informed decision about how they want to feed their plants, without getting overwhelmed by the hundreds of products and feeding bottles on the market.
You don't need an entire cupboard full of bottles to grow great cannabis! Sometimes understanding what your plants actually need is far more important than how many products you buy.
This is Episode 5 of our Grow Guides series, taking you step-by-step from planning your first grow all the way through to harvest and beyond.

In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we dive into the latest cannabis headlines from around the world, from an unusual UK cannabis farm to incredible archaeological discoveries and developments in the American cannabis industry.
Macky has a story from Norfolk, where a couple in their seventies were found to have been running a cannabis farm from their home. It's certainly not what you'd expect to find when visiting your elderly neighbours!
Smee takes us back around 2,800 years to ancient Siberia, where archaeologists have discovered cannabis seeds and chemical traces in human hair inside an ancient tomb. The findings provide some of the oldest directly dated evidence of people using cannabis for its intoxicating effects, giving us a fascinating glimpse into the role cannabis played in ancient rituals. Read more
Billy brings us a story about an armed robbery involving medical cannabis worth tens of thousands of pounds. We look at the incident and the security concerns surrounding valuable medical cannabis products. Read the full story
John heads over to Massachusetts, where voters have rejected a proposal that would have brought an end to recreational cannabis sales in the state. The result keeps the state's legal recreational cannabis market in place, following a campaign that put the future of legalisation firmly in the spotlight. Read the Forbes report
From cannabis history stretching back thousands of years to the future of legal cannabis markets, we've got plenty to get stuck into this week.
Join Macky, Smee, Billy and John as we discuss the stories, question the headlines and share our thoughts on what's happening in the world of cannabis.

Growing Mediums Explained: Living Soil, Coco, DWC, NFT & More | Which Is Best for Beginners? | Grow Guides S3 Ep. 4

Welcome back to Grow Guides! In Episode 4 of our 50-part series, we're looking at the different growing mediums available and helping you decide which one is right for your first cannabis grow.
There are plenty of ways to grow cannabis, and each growing medium comes with its own advantages, disadvantages and demands. Some are relatively hands-off, while others require regular attention and a much closer eye on what your plants are doing.
This week, we break down the most popular growing methods, including:
Living Soil: Growing with a living ecosystem that does much of the work for you.
Super Soil: Nutrient-rich soil mixes designed to provide much of what your plants need throughout their life cycle.
Coco Coir: A popular growing medium that offers excellent control but requires more regular feeding and watering.
DWC (Deep Water Culture): Growing with the plant's roots suspended in an oxygenated nutrient solution.
NFT (Nutrient Film Technique): A hydroponic system that continuously delivers a thin stream of nutrient solution to the roots.
And we'll look at other growing methods along the way!
But we don't just explain what each medium is. We also discuss one of the most important considerations when choosing how to grow: how much time and attention does it actually take?
We compare the daily maintenance involved, how easy each method is to manage, how quickly problems can be spotted and corrected, and which methods are likely to suit someone growing cannabis for the very first time.
Should a beginner start with living soil? Is coco worth the extra work? Are hydroponic systems too complicated for a first grow? Or is there another option that makes more sense?
By the end of this episode, you'll have a much better understanding of the different growing mediums available and, hopefully, a good idea of which one suits your time, experience and growing ambitions.
The aim of Grow Guides is to give you the knowledge to make informed decisions, rather than simply telling you there's only one way to grow cannabis.
Choose your medium wisely. You'll be living with that decision for the rest of your grow!

In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we dive into five very different cannabis stories from around the world, covering medical research, regulation, the future of the industry and some long-held beliefs about cannabis.
Macky looks at one of the biggest questions surrounding cannabis and medicine: can cannabis or CBD oil actually cure cancer? We look at what the scientific evidence says, what cannabis may be useful for, and why claims that cannabis can cure cancer need to be treated very carefully.
Smee looks at the ongoing debate around cannabis rescheduling in the United States and whether changes to federal cannabis policy could leave smaller and social-equity operators struggling to compete with larger companies. Could the legal cannabis industry become increasingly dominated by big businesses?
Billy takes us over to Europe, where the whole hemp plant could soon receive recognition as an agricultural crop under EU rules. However, individual member states would still retain powers that could allow them to criminalise aspects of hemp production. We look at what this could mean for European hemp growers and the wider industry.
John has a story from the US involving the DEA and cannabis businesses operating in states with both medical and recreational licensing. The DEA has reportedly refused to approve some marijuana businesses in states where the two licensing systems operate alongside each other, creating another complication between state-level cannabis laws and federal regulation.
Margaret looks at a fascinating 35-year study examining cannabis and sleep. Cannabis has long been associated with helping people sleep, but the research challenges the idea that marijuana is necessarily beneficial for long-term sleep quality. We dig into what the study actually found and whether the popular belief about cannabis and sleep holds up.
As always, we get beyond the headlines and look at what the research, regulations and industry developments could actually mean for cannabis users, patients, growers and businesses.

It's Halloween on High on Home Grown! This week we're putting the cannabis news and growing talk to one side for a special Halloween episode, where each of us brings along a scary story to share.
Expect ghost stories, strange encounters, creepy experiences and a few tales that might make you think twice about what goes bump in the night.
We also get stuck into one of our favourite subjects: horror movies. We chat about some of the films that have genuinely scared us, the horror classics we love, the movies that probably shouldn't have been made... and one particularly terrible film that somehow made its way onto our watch list: The Burning.
Was it a hidden horror gem? Absolutely not.
Was it a terrible 1980s slasher that gave us plenty to talk about? Definitely!
So grab yourself a drink, turn the lights down, and join us for a special Halloween night with the High on Home Grown crew.
Scary stories, horror movies, terrible films and plenty of Halloween nonsense. What could possibly go wrong? 🎃

Grow Guides Episode 3 is all about cannabis seeds!
If you're new to growing, choosing your seeds can be surprisingly confusing. Regular, feminized, autoflowering, photoperiod, CBD and all the different names and descriptions used by seed banks can leave you wondering what you're actually supposed to buy.
In this episode, we break down the different types of cannabis seeds and explain what each type is, how they grow, and why you might choose one over another.
We cover:
Regular seeds and what makes them different
Feminized seeds and why they are so popular
Autoflowering seeds and how they differ from photoperiod plants
Photoperiod cannabis and how the light cycle controls flowering
Indica, Sativa and hybrid genetics
CBD and other types of cannabis seeds
The advantages and disadvantages of each type
What to look for when choosing seeds
Buying from seed banks and understanding what you're actually gettingRather than telling you that one type of seed is the "best", we explain the differences so you can work out which type is best suited to your own grow, your space and what you want to achieve.
This is Episode 3 of our 50-episode Grow Guides journey, taking you step-by-step from planning your first grow all the way through to harvest.
If you're about to buy your first cannabis seeds, watch this one before you spend your money!

In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we dive into the latest cannabis stories from around the world, including new research challenging claims about cannabis and violence, a controversial UK sentencing, and some interesting developments in the European medical cannabis industry.
Macky looks at new research examining the claim that cannabis makes people more violent. The study challenges some of the recent headlines suggesting a direct link between cannabis use and violent behaviour, and we take a closer look at what the evidence actually tells us.
Smee brings us a story from Cumbria, where a cannabis grower was sentenced after police discovered a commercial-scale operation worth around £500,000. The case also attracted attention after the judge apologised to the defendant for the timing of his sentence, which was handed down on his birthday.
Billy has two short stories from the European cannabis industry. We look at the rapidly increasing movement of medical cannabis from Portugal into Spain, before turning to Cronos and its acquisition of a cannabis producer in the Netherlands connected to the country's ongoing cannabis trial. Two stories, but both highlighting how quickly the European medical cannabis market continues to develop.
John is taking the week off, so unfortunately we're John-free this time around!
Margaret looks at new research into prenatal cannabis exposure and its potential effects on children's brain development and behaviour. The study reports subtle differences in brain structure and behavioural measures among children exposed to cannabis during pregnancy, giving us plenty to discuss around what the research does and doesn't actually prove.
As always, we take a look beyond the headlines and get stuck into what these stories really mean for cannabis users, growers, patients and the wider industry.

Grow Guides are back with Episode 2, and this week we’re talking about one of the most important parts of planning your first grow: what equipment do you actually need?
There are thousands of different products, gadgets and pieces of grow equipment available, but how much of it do you really need? And more importantly, what equipment is right for the size of grow you are planning?
We break it down by grow tent size, looking at 2ft x 2ft, 2ft x 4ft, 4ft x 4ft and 4ft x 8ft grow tents, and discuss what you need to build a suitable setup for each one.
We cover the important stuff including:
Grow tents and choosing the right size
What sort of grow light you need for each tent
Extraction and ventilation
Circulation fans and air movement
Temperature and humidity monitoring
Timers and controlling your equipment
pH meters and why they matter
EC Meters and when you might need one
The smaller pieces of equipment that are easy to overlookThe aim of this episode is to take some of the confusion out of buying grow equipment. Rather than simply telling you to buy the biggest, most expensive setup available, we look at what makes sense for different grow spaces and different growers.
Whether you're planning a tiny 2ft x 2ft tent or you're dreaming of filling an 8ft grow tent, this episode should help you understand what you actually need before you start spending your money.
This is Episode 2 of our new 50-episode Grow Guides series, where we're taking you step-by-step from planning your first grow all the way through to harvest and beyond.

This week on High on Home Grown, we’re joined by Aaron “Professor Potgrower” Zeeman, a Hawaii-based cannabis breeder, author and cannabis culture advocate. Aaron has spent more than 30 years in Hawaii and founded Big Island Genetics, where he works to preserve and breed Hawaiian heirloom cannabis genetics.
Aaron joins us to talk about his book, The Hemp Ritual Handbook, a fascinating look at the culture, history and traditions that have surrounded cannabis for generations. It’s much more than a book about growing cannabis, exploring the rituals, experiences and culture that grew up around the plant long before legalisation and the modern cannabis industry.
We also get deep into Hawaiian cannabis genetics, the legendary strains associated with the islands and the importance of preserving the genetics that have been passed down through generations. Aaron explains what he is doing through his breeding work in Hawaii and why keeping these old lines alive matters.
From Hawaiian heirloom genetics and breeding to cannabis culture, his book and the history behind some of Hawaii’s most famous cannabis, this is a fascinating conversation with someone who has spent decades living and working with the plant.
If you’re interested in cannabis history, genetics, breeding or simply the stories behind the plants we grow today, you won’t want to miss this one.

n this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we dive into some of the biggest cannabis stories making headlines around the world:
Macky looks at new research into cannabis use among older adults in the US. The study found that cannabis use is becoming increasingly common among people aged 65 and over, with 11.4% of older cannabis users meeting the criteria for cannabis use disorder.
Smee brings us a story from Bedfordshire, where three men have been jailed after turning a former pub into a large-scale cannabis growing operation. Police discovered 13 cultivation rooms containing more than 1,200 mature cannabis plants, with the crop estimated to be worth up to £1.1 million. The three men received a combined sentence of more than 18 years.
Billy is unfortunately not well this week, so we're flying one man down!
John takes us over to the US, where the $28 billion hemp-derived THC industry is fighting to avoid a looming federal ban. With new federal restrictions threatening to seriously impact the industry, businesses are pushing for regulation rather than an outright ban.
Margaret looks at a major review from researchers at King's College London examining the relationship between cannabis use and violence. The review analysed 63 studies involving more than 265,000 people and found an association between cannabis use and an increased likelihood of both committing and experiencing violence. The researchers also stress that an association does not by itself prove that cannabis is the cause.
Another week, another pile of cannabis stories for us to get stuck into. As always, we take a look at what the research actually says, what is happening in the cannabis industry, and what these stories could mean for growers and consumers.

Grow Guides are back! After a break from the series, we're returning with Grow Guides Season 3, and this time we're going right back to basics.
Over the next 50 episodes, we're going to take you through the process of growing cannabis step by step, covering everything from planning your first grow and choosing your equipment right through to harvesting, drying, curing and beyond.
And where better to start than with the question every new grower should ask before buying a single seed or piece of equipment: what exactly do you want from your grow?
In Episode 1: Planning Your First Cannabis Grow, we look at all the things you need to think about before getting started.
How much cannabis do you actually need to grow? How do you work backwards from your desired amount to work out how many plants you might need? How much space do you have available, and how does that affect the size and number of plants you can grow?
We also get into the budget. What sort of money do you realistically need to get started, where should you spend your money, and where can you save? There's no point designing the grow of your dreams if the equipment costs more than the car!
Then there's time. Growing cannabis isn't just about putting a seed in some soil and waiting for the harvest. How much time do you actually have available to look after your plants, and how should that influence the type of grow you plan?
And before we get too carried away, we talk about legality and privacy. Understanding the laws where you live should be one of the first things you consider before starting any grow, along with thinking about who knows about it and how you're going to keep your setup secure and private.
We'll also discuss expectations, planning around your available space and resources, and why taking a little time to plan your first grow can save you a lot of money, stress and disappointment later on.
This is the beginning of a brand-new 50-episode Grow Guides journey, designed to take a new grower from having absolutely no idea where to start through the entire process, one step at a time.
So before you buy the seeds, switch on the lights or start filling pots, let's make a plan.
🌱 Grow Guides Season 2 starts here!

This week on High on Home Grown, we take a look at another collection of cannabis stories from around the UK and beyond, covering everything from neighbours complaining about cannabis smoke to a major cannabis importation case, the continued expansion of the UK medical cannabis market and potential changes to insurance for cannabis businesses.
Macky looks at a story from Wales Online about a neighbour smoking cannabis and what someone can actually do if cannabis smoke is affecting their home. We look at the legal position surrounding nuisance, what options residents may have and where the line sits between someone's cannabis use and it becoming a problem for their neighbours.

We discuss what the move could mean for the growing medical cannabis sector and the companies looking to establish themselves in the UK.

John brings us a story from the United States looking at proposed legislation that could make it easier for cannabis businesses to obtain insurance coverage. We discuss why insurance remains such a complicated issue for the cannabis industry and what changes to the rules could mean for businesses operating legally within the sector.

And Dr. Margaret looks at a new study examining the potential health effects of cannabis edibles compared with smoking cannabis. The study has generated headlines around whether edibles should automatically be considered a safer alternative, so we take a closer look at what the research actually found and what it does, and doesn't, tell us.

It’s a big one on High on Home Grown this week as we reach the final Listener Mail episode of the series! From next week, we’re heading back into the full Grow Guides, but not before answering one last batch of questions from the community.
Billy Bong is trying to keep his grow going through the winter in an unmodified shed, and asks how to deal with low temperatures, humidity and condensation without having to heat the entire building. We discuss winter growing, keeping the environment stable and the challenges of running tents in an outdoor structure.
He also has a suggestion for the strain name that came out of last week's show: Terpish Delight. We may have accidentally created a monster.
Lobby Lobster returns with another question about the growing world becoming increasingly automated. With AI-powered grow equipment, automatic watering, environmental controllers and smart systems becoming more common, are we making growing easier and reducing burnout, or are we slowly removing some of the hands-on enjoyment that makes the hobby so rewarding? We discuss where automation helps and where we might still want to get our hands dirty.
FreeNugz has the classic outdoor-grower's dilemma: when you're getting close to harvest and the trichomes are still developing, is the extra potency worth risking bud rot? We talk about the difficult decisions growers sometimes have to make when the weather turns against them and whether waiting for the "perfect" harvest is always the right move.
SKD asks a question that pretty much every grower eventually asks themselves: when do you finally feel like you've got this figured out? After experimenting with soil, coco, different plant sizes, SCROGs, training, nutrients and drying methods, how many grows does it take before you find your preferred style and settle into a repeatable routine?
We also get into the daunting world of choosing cannabis strains. With thousands of varieties, ridiculous names, endless seed banks and increasingly questionable AI-generated pictures, where does a newer grower even begin?
And finally, Phil Me Bowls gives us another one of those questions that could only have been invented while high, before we finish the Listener Mail series with some truly terrible dad jokes.
After all the questions, laughs, arguments and bizarre scenarios we've covered throughout this Listener Mail run, it's time to close the book on the series for now.
Next week, Grow Guides are back! 🌱
Thanks to everyone who has sent questions in, listened, watched, commented and been part of the community. The Listener Mail episodes have been a brilliant way of hearing directly from the people who make High on Home Grown what it is.
Now let's get back to growing.

This week on High on Home Grown, we welcome back a very good friend of the show, Jordan River, host of GrowCast!
Jordan has been on the show before, so this isn't your typical interview where we sit down and run through a list of cannabis questions. Instead, we catch up with an old friend and end up talking about just about everything!
We do, of course, discuss the upcoming US seed ban and what Jordan thinks it could mean for the American cannabis community, breeders and the wider industry. But from there the conversation heads in all sorts of directions.
We get into Texas Hold'em poker, chess, coffee, the trauma inflicted on us by 80s movies, and plenty of other random topics that somehow seemed perfectly sensible at the time.
Jordan also tells us about his new coffee brand, including his THC-infused coffee, and we talk about the idea of combining two of life's greatest pleasures: caffeine and cannabis!
This is less of a formal interview and more of a proper catch-up between friends. There’s cannabis, but there’s also poker, chess, coffee, movies, business, nostalgia, the changing US legal landscape and plenty of completely unexpected tangents.
If you've listened to Jordan's previous appearances on High on Home Grown, you'll know exactly what you're in for. If you haven't, this is a great introduction to one of our favourite conversations to have when the microphones are switched on.
A relaxed, funny and wide-ranging conversation with a good friend of the show. Grab a coffee, settle in and enjoy the ride!

Billy: UK Medical Cannabis Under Review: Where is the ACMD Report?
John: The New Federal Hemp & Cannabis Seed Law — Full Text (Effective Nov 12, 2026) | Grow Weed Easy
Margaret: Adolescent cannabis use disorder diagnoses rise after legalization
Macky looks at Peter Hitchens' latest piece asking why, despite cannabis remaining illegal in the UK, police seemingly aren't taking much notice of the increasingly obvious smell of cannabis across the country. We discuss the wider question of how Britain's cannabis laws are actually being enforced and the growing gap between legislation and what people see happening on the streets.
Smee looks at an interesting side effect of the UK's struggling high streets. Empty shops are increasingly being targeted for illegal cannabis farms, and insurers are reportedly being left to pick up the bill when these properties are damaged. We discuss the growing problem of commercial properties being converted into cannabis farms and who ultimately ends up paying for the damage.
Billy asks a question that has been hanging over the UK's medical cannabis industry for some time: where is the ACMD report? With the UK's medical cannabis system continuing to develop, we look at the ongoing review and what a long-awaited report could mean for patients, doctors and the wider industry.
John brings us the full text and implications of the new US federal hemp and cannabis seed law, which is due to take effect on 12 November 2026. With the legislation potentially having major consequences for cannabis seeds, breeders and the wider American cannabis industry, we discuss what the new rules actually say and what they could mean for growers and businesses.
Dr. Margaret brings us the latest research looking at adolescent cannabis use disorder diagnoses following legalization. The study reports an increase in diagnoses among adolescents, giving us another opportunity to look at what the research actually measured, what it can tell us about cannabis use and young people, and where the limitations of the findings lie.
From Britain's increasingly awkward relationship with cannabis law to empty high-street properties becoming grow sites, the future of medical cannabis regulation and a major change to US federal seed legislation, there's plenty for the panel to get stuck into this week.
Another week of cannabis news, research, law, regulation and plenty of discussion from the High on Home Grown panel.

This week on High on Home Grown, we're back with another Listener Mail episode, answering questions from the community covering everything from making your grow more comfortable on your back to dealing with heavy rain outdoors, genetic variation between plants and the growing advice we've completely changed our minds about over the years.
SKD, the grower with the SCROG and the dodgy back, is back looking for more ways to make growing more ergonomic. We discuss ways of making the grow room easier on your body, whether raising plants can help, and whether automatic watering systems are actually worth the investment or just another gadget taking up space in the grow room.
Free Nugz has a much more immediate problem, with tall outdoor plants being hit by unexpected heavy rain and already showing the first signs of bud rot. We discuss what growers can realistically do when the weather turns against them, how to reduce the chances of losing an outdoor harvest, and what to look out for when you're trying to get big plants through the final stretch of the season.
Toploader has perhaps the most important question of the episode: Does anyone have Milky Amber's phone number? We're still waiting for the appropriate authorities to respond.
ChronicG asks why two plants from the exact same packet of seeds can sometimes finish looking, smelling and even behaving completely differently. We get into genetics vs environment, phenotype variation and how much influence the growing conditions can actually have on the final expression of a cannabis plant.
Finally, BudsAndBeans asks the panel to look back at their own growing journeys and reveal one thing they used to believe about growing cannabis that experience completely changed their mind about. Sometimes the best lessons aren't the things you learn from a book, but the things you learn after doing something wrong for five years!
Another episode of community questions, grow-room experience, practical advice, genetics, outdoor growing and the occasional question that absolutely should not have made it onto the podcast.

This week on High on Home Grown, we’re joined by Ben Owens, a cannabis content creator, ghostwriter and business advisor who has worked behind the scenes across the cannabis media and business world.
We start by talking about one of the biggest changes happening in online media right now: AI. As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly capable of creating articles, content and even entire websites, what does that mean for writers, publishers and the future of cannabis media? We get Ben’s perspective from someone who has experience working on both the content and business sides of the industry.
We also get back to what we really like talking about on High on Home Grown: growing cannabis. Ben talks us through his own growing methods, including how he approaches cloning and the techniques he uses to keep plants going from one generation to the next.
And, of course, we couldn't let Ben on the show without discussing the elephant in the room for the US cannabis seed industry: the upcoming seed ban. We talk about the potential impact on seed sellers, breeders and growers, how businesses are dealing with the uncertainty, and what the future could look like for the US seed market if the proposed changes come into effect.
It's another relaxed conversation covering growing, cloning, cannabis media, AI, business and the rapidly changing legal landscape in the USA.

In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we dive into the biggest cannabis stories from around the world, with two very different UK cannabis factory stories, a look at the future of medical cannabis research, concerns over a proposed US hemp ban, and some promising research into medical cannabis and endometriosis.
Macky starts things off with a rather unusual discovery in Slough, where Thames Valley Police uncovered a huge cannabis growing operation inside an abandoned former BHS store. Around 1,700 plants were found, with the crop estimated to have a potential yield of around 150kg and a street value of approximately £1.3 million. Two men involved in the operation have been jailed.
Smee brings us another UK cannabis factory story, this time involving the director of an estate agency who used rental properties to set up cannabis grows. Several properties were used as part of the operation before police eventually caught up with him, resulting in a prison sentence.
Billy looks towards the future of medical cannabis as Professor David Nutt prepares to explore the future of medical cannabis research at a symposium in London. We discuss where the science is heading and what questions researchers still need to answer as medical cannabis continues to gain attention.
John takes us across the Atlantic for a look at the potential impact of the proposed US hemp ban. A new report suggests that as much as 68% of the US hemp industry could be affected, raising serious questions about what the legislation could mean for businesses, consumers and the wider hemp market.
Finally, Margaret brings us some more encouraging medical cannabis research, with a study linking medical cannabis use to sustained improvements in endometriosis symptoms. We take a look at what the research found and what it could mean for people living with endometriosis.
So we've got abandoned department stores, estate agents running grow houses, the future of medical cannabis research, a potentially huge shake-up of the US hemp industry and some promising medical research.
Another busy week in the world of cannabis!

It’s another Listener Mail episode of High on Home Grown, and this week we’ve got questions covering everything from drying cannabis in extreme desert conditions to running a perpetual grow in two narrow tents, with plenty of completely unrelated nonsense thrown in for good measure!
Desert MK brings us not one but two questions this week. First up, we tackle the nightmare of trying to dry cannabis when you're dealing with temperatures around 105°F (40°C) and single-digit humidity. With even air-conditioned rooms struggling to get below 75°F, Desert MK asks about the Lotus method, using a refrigerator and paper bags to dry the harvest, and whether there are other alternative drying and curing methods worth considering. Could this be the perfect excuse for another Grow Guide?
Then Desert MK has another question, this time about VPD. If all the charts say a VPD of 6.5 KPa should be disastrous, how are outdoor plants surviving and thriving in 105-110°F desert conditions? We get into the difference between what the calculators tell us and what plants actually experience, and why simply looking at one number doesn't always tell the whole story.
Phil Me Bowls gets us thinking about the munchies. Is there actually a connection between the type of cannabis high you're experiencing and the snacks you choose? Does a more cerebral high send you towards completely different food choices than a heavy body stone? Or are we just looking for an excuse to eat everything in the cupboard?
Lobby Lobster brings the chaos with a Shag, Marry, Avoid involving Putin, Trump and Kim Jong Un, before getting back to the important questions. Will we be bringing back another legendary strain list when the Grow Guides return, and if each panel member could breed their own strain and give it a name, what would they call it?
SMG is planning a perpetual grow using two narrow tents in a garage, with one tent for veg and one for flower. The question is whether it's possible to connect the two tents using ducting while running both environments from a single extractor fan, and what problems might arise when trying to maintain the right conditions in two separate growing spaces.
And finally, Free Nugz gives us another classic panel question: if we were intentionally stranded on a desert island with the other panel members and could bring just two items from home, what would we choose? Because apparently being stranded on an island with this lot wasn't already punishment enough.
As always, plenty of growing advice, questionable decisions, strange hypotheticals and panel debates in this week's Listener Mail!

Chad Westport is back on High on Home Grown! Chad has become a great friend of the show over the years, and whenever he comes on we know we're in for a proper session. This time around, there’s plenty to talk about as Chad gives us an update on what’s been happening with his websites, the difficulties he’s having selling his seeds, and the growing uncertainty surrounding the coming US seed ban and what that could mean for breeders, seed sellers and growers across America.
But, as usual with Chad, we don't spend the entire conversation talking about cannabis! We get sidetracked into 80s movies, TV shows, nostalgia and all sorts of other random stuff, before inevitably finding our way back to cannabis, breeding and the current state of the industry.
We also chat about what Chad has been working on, the challenges of trying to run a seed business in an increasingly complicated environment, and what the future might look like for his genetics and online projects.
If you've listened to Chad's previous appearances on the show, you'll already know what you're getting here. A relaxed conversation with a good mate of the show, plenty of laughs, plenty of cannabis chat, and probably a few tangents along the way!
Chad has previously joined us for everything from podcasting and YouTube to breeding projects and Westport University, so it was great to get him back on the show and catch up with him again.

This week on High on Home Grown, we’ve got another packed Cannabis News episode, but before we get into the usual stories, we start with some sad news as we remember Peezy from the 2 Be Blunt Podcast, who has sadly passed away. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and everyone who knew him. We’ve included the fundraiser below for anyone who would like to show their support.
Macky takes a look at the cannabis stocks that are currently benefiting from the ongoing rescheduling conversation in the US. Is rescheduling really going to be the boost investors are hoping for, or is the cannabis stock market still a bit of a gamble?
Smee brings us a proper UK crime story this week, as a Royal Mail worker has been jailed after exploiting his position to steal cannabis-filled parcels and make more than £1.2 million from the operation. He’s now been handed a six-year-nine-month prison sentence.
Billy is back with not one, but two strain reviews, this time looking at strains from Tilray Portugal. We’ll find out what he thinks of them and whether they manage to impress the panel.
Then John brings us one of the stranger sporting stories of the week. World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka actually stopped play during her US Open match against Kamilla Rakhimova after complaining about the smell of cannabis drifting onto the court. Apparently even the US Open isn't safe from the unmistakable smell of a cheeky one!
Finally, Margaret looks at new research linking more frequent cannabis use with fewer days of good mental health, particularly among men. As always, we’ll have a proper discussion about what the research actually tells us, and what it doesn't.
Plus, the usual High on Home Grown chat, opinions, laughs and plenty of debate along the way.

It's another Listener Mail episode on High on Home Grown, and this week the community has come up with some brilliant questions about the real cost of growing, harvesting, watering difficult plants, recycling soil and whether we've somehow managed to make growing cannabis far more complicated than it needs to be!
We start by looking at the true cost of growing cannabis, with the panel comparing what their current setups cost and how much they've spent throughout their growing careers. We also introduce a new feature: Grow Gripe of the Week, where everyone gets the chance to have a proper moan about something that gets under their skin, from equipment and seeds to the cannabis community, laws and anything else deserving of a rant!
We then get into harvest time, discussing different ways of preparing plants before drying and whether it's better to remove the larger leaves, hang the whole plant, or use drying racks. We also tackle the eternal problem of watering a thick SCROG, because apparently growing enormous horizontal plants wasn't difficult enough without having to crawl underneath them with a watering can.
Another listener asks about reusing outdoor soil indoors without bringing pests along for the ride, leading to a discussion about recycling growing media and the potential pitfalls of moving soil from outside into a controlled indoor environment.
Finally, we tackle a question that fits perfectly with our recent Grow Guides: when did growing cannabis become so bloody complicated? With VPD, DLI, PPFD, EC, automated irrigation and enough sensors to launch a small space programme, are all these tools genuinely making us better growers, or are we simply overthinking a plant that has been growing quite happily without a spreadsheet?
And to finish things off, we discuss one of the hardest lessons for any grower to learn: when should you actually fix a problem, and when should you just leave the bloody plant alone?
Plus, there's the all-important question of how far each panel member would travel for a truly decent burger. Priorities.

This week we take a closer look at the increasingly heated battle over America's hemp-derived THC market and what could happen if Congress moves forward with a broad ban. We also discuss Katie Boulter's comments from the US Open and the slightly surreal situation of cannabis smell becoming a talking point in professional tennis.
Closer to home, Billy brings us a potentially important development for UK medical cannabis, with calls for an NHS pilot and a Parliamentary investigation into why so few patients currently receive cannabis-based medicines through the NHS. We also examine fresh research into the experiences of older medical cannabis patients and the reported improvements in pain, sleep and mood.
Another packed episode of cannabis news, science, medicine, politics and plenty for the panel to get stuck into.

It's another Listener Mail episode on High on Home Grown, and this week the community has sent us some fantastic questions covering cannabis genetics, growing myths, extracts, outdoor growing and the eternal battle against the breeder's timeline!
We kick things off with a fascinating question about the explosion of new cannabis crosses and whether we're eventually going to reach a point where every strain starts becoming some generic hybrid, with less of the individuality that made classic cultivars so memorable. We also investigate an old piece of growing advice about leaving water out for 24 hours to "de-gas" it. Is there actually anything to it, or is this simply another bit of grow-room folklore?
We then get into cannabis extracts, including RSO and MCT oil, and discuss whether less traditionally sedating cultivars such as Jack Herer or CBD-rich varieties are worth using for extracts. There's also a big outdoor-growing question about finishing plants late in the season without losing everything to botrytis, covering what growers can realistically do when autumn brings rain, dew, cold temperatures and high humidity.
Finally, we tackle the frustration of a plant that refuses to follow the breeder's schedule! What does it actually mean when an auto advertised as 63 days is still going strong at day 80? We discuss why breeder timelines aren't guarantees, what can influence flowering time, and whether there's anything growers can realistically do when a plant simply needs longer to finish.
And naturally, Lobby Lobster has returned with another vital contribution to science: is shortbread a biscuit or a bread, and why isn't sourdough actually sour?
Another great episode of community questions, growing knowledge, myths, science and the usual High on Home Grown nonsense. 🌱

It's another Listener Mail episode on High on Home Grown, and this week we've got a brilliant mix of practical growing questions, cannabis experiences, controversial opinions and, of course, some important biscuit-related business.
We start with a follow-up on amending living soil, asking whether it's actually better to wait until a new seedling has established itself before adding amendments, rather than potentially making freshly amended soil too "hot" for young plants. We also tackle a common concern for coco growers using organic inputs: why does mould sometimes appear in the growing medium before the seedling has even broken the surface? We discuss what might be happening and when growers should, and shouldn't, be worried.
The panel also takes on the question of outdated cannabis growing advice, looking at some of the common tips that have been repeated online for years and asking whether they still hold up with what we know today. We also share some of the biggest mistakes we've made during our own growing journeys and, more importantly, what those mistakes taught us.
Away from the grow room, we discuss dry mouth after taking edibles, whether dose and timing could play a role, and answer Lobby's question about our favourite cannabis extracts. And naturally, following last week's Jaffa Cake controversy, we return to the subject of biscuits, this time discussing everyone's favourite dunkable treats.
FreeNugz also returns with another wonderfully random question: if you could become a master of any musical instrument, which one would you choose and why?
Another relaxed episode full of useful information, personal experiences, community questions and the usual High on Home Grown chaos.

Billy brings us news from the Netherlands, where the developing regulated cannabis experiment continues to provide an interesting real-world test of what happens when production and supply are brought into a controlled system. Meanwhile, John looks across the Atlantic at the ongoing fight over hemp-derived THC products in the United States, while Dr. Margaret brings us some much more positive news from Canada with a major new investment into cannabis research.

It's another Listener Mail episode, and this week we've got a great mix of practical growing questions, organic growing, plant biology and, naturally, some completely unnecessary but extremely important debates!
We discuss the best ways to deal with a calcium issue in an organic grow, including which amendments can help and how to avoid throwing unnecessary nutrients at your soil. We also look at why some cannabis strains begin forming and stacking buds much earlier than others, and what genetics, flowering behaviour and plant structure have to do with it.
There's also a great discussion about outdoor defoliation, with growers debating whether removing leaves throughout flower is beneficial for airflow or whether the plant should simply be left alone to make and use its own energy. We also tackle the question of how to reuse and re-amend super soil after a grow without constantly paying to have it professionally tested, and what growers can look for themselves when deciding what their soil needs.
And because this is Listener Mail, we couldn't possibly finish without answering the really important questions. Is a Jaffa Cake actually a cake or a biscuit? Which fictional universe would the panel live in for a week? And, perhaps most importantly, who taught the first teacher?

In this week's interview, I sit down with Jackson Farmer, who runs a specialist DNA and sex-testing company for cannabis plants. We take a deep dive into the science behind cannabis sex testing, looking at how plant DNA can be analysed to determine sex at a much earlier stage than growers would normally be able to tell by looking at the plant.
Jackson explains how the testing process works, what growers can learn from their plant's genetics, and how DNA technology could potentially save growers time, space and resources when planning a crop. We also get into the increasingly discussed issue of HLVd (Hop Latent Viroid), what it is, why growers are concerned about it, and how testing can play a role in identifying problems.
But this isn't all cannabis science! We also take a few interesting detours into dog fostering, Jackson's experiences outside the cannabis industry, and plenty of other subjects along the way.
It's a fascinating conversation that brings together cannabis cultivation, genetics, modern DNA technology and a few unexpected tangents. Whether you're a home grower interested in the science behind your plants or simply curious about where cannabis testing technology is heading, there's plenty to get stuck into.

We also look at some more positive developments, including promising research into cannabis compounds and PTSD, and New York's decision to allow licensed cannabis businesses to sell at farmers' markets and pop-up events.
Finally, we examine another warning about cannabis edibles and driving, discussing why edible cannabis can be particularly unpredictable and why understanding delayed effects is so important.
