Want to learn how to grow your own marijuana? Bally’s Atlantic City to host seminar

Atlantic City, NJ — A California school will hold a seminar this weekend in Atlantic City that teaches participants how to grow their own marijuana, according to a report on Philly.com.

The four-day seminar kicks off Saturday at Bally’s. It’s being run by Oaksterdam University, an Oakland, Calif, marijuana school.

Attendees will also hear from horticulture experts as well as speakers who will talk about the business aspect of the industry.
