First Professional Pot Growing Program Ready to Take Students

Opens in February

Now that recreational marijuana is legal in Colorado, residents are in a bit of a jam: They can't legally buy marijuana in the state, but they can legally grow up to six plants in their homes. But what if you don't have a green thumb? Well, that's where THC University comes in—Colorado's first professional marijuana cultivation training program.

Talk about higher education.

The weed school is the brainchild of 24-year-old Matt Jones who will hold classes at Denver's Auraria Campus teaching how to properly grow marijuana from their homes—and starting February 9th, THCU's classes will be in session.
