Has anyone taken and Oaksterdam University Courses?

I learned for free through independent research; I could probably grow something as good or better than any graduate from Oaksterdam University, I would wager. Don’t pay someone for something like this. It’s just more buzzards that smell a killing. People need to stop overcharging people for weed. ESPECIALLY at the legal level. Black Market prices are already inflated, no reason to make them even higher for people whose health insurance won’t cover it. This shit grows out of the ground.

Sounds just like here. Same analyses. Microbial, pesticides etc. I guess terpenes add a lot because mos legal offerings here so far lack them. There are exceptions . One grower retail has a large notebook with all the information on the strains they grow including terpenes . Very helpful in choosing strains. As much so for me as THC.

I would assume you're living in the states? I'm actually surprised none of your labs offer terpene testing yet. Thats cool, I wonder if there is something similar up here? I would love to know exactly what terpenes the plant has to offer before growing the strain.

They offer it. It must just cost a lot more. Like I said some growers go for the whole enchilada with terpenes . Most limited grows do not.

Cool, thanks for the info man.

This is one of those life moments...Where as a kid I used to dream if Amsterdam! I even had a girlfriend who went in her own...But now...I live in a place with even friendlier rules twords cannabis. And the rest if the world wish's they where here....God bless the West Coast!!! Its a shame just about the rest of the country is in a shit storm and beholden to the mob, big pharma, and the cops they use as inforcers...On the flip side there is no getting 400 an ounce for anything better than mexi..Like when I was a teenager in the early 90s...I could have been Rich...Lol..Oh well no risk now. And we'll one last thank you to the city of Santa Barbara..For being one of the only nice places to live that allows outdoor cultivation...Caregiver or not most cities in CA say NO ..

Who wants to work for a large comercomme grow anyways...They just hire the same guys who grow plants for home Depot... Especially in Canada..The product is sub par...As we all know each plant needs it's own special care and love... Everything from large commercial grows belongs in a closed loop system drenched in butane...Just like the BCs from years gone past.. "BC at least it's not mexi" Sorry..My love if Canada knows no bounds

If I were looking to go into this line of work I'd much rather work with those people than the vague quasi-criminal guys that seem to work in grow ops you see online.

There are always places openly searching for people to run gardens that require a minimum of a bachelor's degree in a related field and directly related experience. Neither alone is likely to get you there without a good amount of luck in networking and "catching a break" department but together you're pretty much golden.
