High on Home Grown, The Cannabis Podcast

In this week’s Grow Guides, episode 86, we focus on one of the most important topics for any home grower, preventing disasters before they happen.

We break down the biggest risks growers face, starting with heatwaves and temperature spikes, and how quickly things can go wrong if your environment isn’t under control. We also cover power cuts and equipment failures, and why having a plan in place can be the difference between saving your crop and losing everything.

We dive into pest prevention, explaining why stopping infestations before they start is far easier than trying to fix them later. From there, we cover mold and bud rot, including the conditions that cause them and how to avoid them completely. We also talk about overwatering and root zone issues, one of the most common mistakes growers make, and how it quietly damages plant health over time. And finally, we tackle the biggest cause of problems in any grow room, human error. Along with the importance of good habits, clean setups, and proper grow room hygiene.

This episode is all about staying one step ahead, avoiding costly mistakes, and keeping your grow running smoothly from start to finish.

In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we cover a mix of emotional stories, tech developments, policy tweaks, and industry growing pains:

Macky has a powerful BBC story about a family who say medical cannabis “cost my brother everything,” raising difficult questions about access, cost, and the realities some patients face under current systems.

John is… well, still cheerleading ;) Smee brings an interesting development as a cannabis breathalyzer moves one step closer to becoming a reality. A piece of tech that could have major implications for law enforcement and roadside testing.

Dr. Margaret reports from Canada, where Ontario is considering allowing cannabis stores to open two hours earlier — a small change on paper, but one that could have a noticeable impact on the retail landscape. Billy takes a look at the Dutch legal cannabis experiment, where 42 violations have been recorded in its first year. We discuss what this means for regulation, rollout challenges, and the future of the programme.

Another packed episode full of real-world impact, evolving tech, and the usual mix of serious and slightly mad stories from around the cannabis world.

In this week’s Grow Guides, episode 85, we discuss cannabis grafting, a technique that allows you to combine multiple plants into one.

We start by explaining what grafting is and how it works, before getting into why growers might want to try it, from preserving genetics to running multiple strains on a single plant. From there, we walk you through a step-by-step grafting guide, covering the tools you’ll need, how to make clean cuts, and how to encourage a successful union between plants. We also go over common mistakes that can ruin a graft, along with practical tips to improve your success rate.

Finally, we ask the big question: is grafting actually worth it? We break down the pros and cons so you can decide if it’s something you want to experiment with in your own grow. Of course we have a healthy dose of listener mail questions too. 

A great episode for growers looking to expand their skills and try something a little different in the garden.
