You can get a better value @ growinginmichigan.com. A bit more intensive but you will have a solid foundation to start growing.

If you are looking for purely grow advice this Ed Rosenthal lecture is a much better source of info imo. after looking at the growinginmichigan website it seems like they took oaksterdams university's curriculum and cut it down and scrunched it into a single weekend. Also at $299 ($50 rebate ONLY if your a patient or caregiver) its also more expensive. The Rosenthal lecture is $250 for both days or $150 for one, assuming you get your tickets in advance and not at the door. Also the facility at Auburn Hills has been closed indefinately due to a moratorium.

I have seen the curriculum for Oaksterdam, and its a joke. Only a fraction of what is needed is taught and patients have told me after taking their 6 week class they are at the same place as when they started. Who better to teach the intricacies of the Michigan law and procedure than Michigan patients themselves? I understand you might be biased since you are from Cali, but Michigan patients and caregivers should be exposed to a strong foundation not some fly by night class. Topics like what kinda of equipment to buy, where to get the best deals, a network to acquire patients or clones, and grow room installation are all basic info that a patient/caregiver needs to be exposed to so that they can put the money they spent on the class to good use. Looking at his syllabus there is a lot of information that is extraneous and not helpful for the way the law is in Michigan.

Becoming a patient costs 75-100 dollars for a visit. I would think that if you can't afford that then a class would be out of the question. Also, a more hands on approach is being implemented for the patients in Michigan and several have had great success. Ed is great but these venues are more about selling his products than actually informing the public properly.

My statistics prof said one time not to take any course for the subject material. But take the course for the professor. you will learn more and it will help you further into life.

Gotta say it would be pretty sweet to have a chance to meet Ed Rosenthal. I think I'd save my $$ on his classes though. He has enough quality books out there that you can get on the cheap.

Yea he does and i have most of them hehe. Just a bonus he happened to teach one of our lectures. Knew he had his own elective growing class but teaching our hort102 was quite a surprise

Everything you listed is currently taught/discussed at Oaksterdam as well, including ALOT more than what is listed in the Michigan cirriculum. All the teachers are patients as well so thats sort of a null point. I understand you might be biased since you are from Mich If people took this course you speak of (which a 6week course hasnt been offered to my knowledge) and learned nothing... they either werent paying attention or fell asleep which amounts to the same thing. I've studied cannabis for about a decade now intensively and still managed to learn ALOT >_< Also by popular demand Oaksterdam is making multiple trips to Michigan to teach people. Saying im biased is a little ridiculous as just in the bay area there is at least 5 cannabis trade schools now, and i would not reccomend any of the others i have been too, nor are they being invited by other states to come and do lectures. Another side note : We also have hands-on lab time as long as your a patient and have your paperwork. Without your paperwork you still get hands-on experience but on non-cannabis substitutes.
