Jorge Cervantes is the pen name of George Van Patten, an American horticulturist, publisher and writer specializing in indoor, outdoor, and greenhouse cultivation of medical cannabis. His underground guerilla years ranged from 1983 to 2010, wearing a disguise to conceal his identity so that he could teach the world to grow without persecution.

Jorge Cervantes’ public career spans 39 years. His books and DVDs (50 total) are published under his given name, George F. Van Patten and pseudonym, Jorge Cervantes. His self-published (Indoor) Marijuana Horticulture book was christened “the Grow Bible” in 2000 by indoor, greenhouse and outdoor growers- including yours truly.

His knowledge and hands-on experience inspired millions of growers worldwide to apply simple, effective techniques to grow more and better cannabis.

    Thank you Jorge . Your knowledge and expertise is priceless
  • Many thanks to Jorge. Back in the day I was one of the people who sourced his books for the love of plant when even the books were a blessing to find. Thanks for that.

    When I first started a few decades ago I went to a local seed shop here in Glasgow, asked for a book and the guy said "you need The Bible" it was Jorge's Indoor Marijuana Cultivation, I've read every word of that book a few times!✌❤💫
