## Resource

This week on High on Home Grown, we’re joined by Ben Owens, a cannabis content creator, ghostwriter and business advisor who has worked behind the scenes across the cannabis media and business world. We start by talking about one of the biggest changes happening in online media right now: AI. As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly capable of creating articles, content and even entire websites, what does that mean for writers, publishers and the future of cannabis media? We get Ben’s perspective from someone who has experience working on both the content and business sides of the industry. We also get back to what we really like talking about on High on Home Grown: growing cannabis. Ben talks us through his own growing methods, including how he approaches cloning and the techniques he uses to keep plants going from one generation to the next. And, of course, we couldn't let Ben on the show without discussing the elephant in the room for the US cannabis seed industry: the upcoming seed ban. We talk about the potential impact on seed sellers, breeders and growers, how businesses are dealing with the uncertainty, and what the future could look like for the US seed market if the proposed changes come into effect. It's another relaxed conversation covering growing, cloning, cannabis media, AI, business and the rapidly changing legal landscape in the USA. 🌐 Website: High on Home Grown💬 Discord: Join the High on Home Grown Discord▶️ YouTube: High on Home Grown on YouTube
