To become a grower, you need to have experience working in the agriculture industry, such as on a farm, in a greenhouse, or at a nursery. Some growers have a bachelor’s degree in soil science, horticulture, plant biology, or a related subject. In the fast-growing marijuana industry, there are several certificate programs centered around the specific considerations for growing cannabis, such as proper ventilation, pest control, trimming, and curing. In addition to educational or work qualifications, essential skills you need for work as a grower include an excellent eye for detail, analytical problem solving, and excellent verbal and written communication.
