| Dr. Bruce Bugbee, professor of crop physiology at Utah State University (USU), is back by popular demand and will share his latest cannabis cultivation research with Cannabis Conference attendees in a highly anticipated session.
Dr. Bugbee — who teaches plant nutrition, plant physiology, and environmental instrumentation and is well known for his work with NASA to determine potential crop yield and is currently funded by NASA to study food production for a colony on Mars — calls his recent research yielding a new definition of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) the most significant finding of his career to date. Although Bugbee and the USU team are well-known for their cannabis lighting studies, they also investigate other areas of cultivation, including how cannabis responds to different nutrient concentrations and how to optimize temperature at different phases in the plant lifecycle.
His session on Aug. 16 will share key findings on: Bugbee’s new definition of PAR, how cannabis responds and how growers can adjust their cultivation practices to maximize light penetration without stretching plants; the relationship between light intensity and cannabis yields; the ideal rates of phosphorus and other cannabis nutrients to maximize growth; how the micronutrient copper plays a role in disease control; … and more!

Bugbee is one of nine researchers, professors and scientists who will be sharing their insights and most recent research results with Cannabis Conference attendees, Aug. 15-17, in Las Vegas.
Cannabis Conference is proud to welcome:
