LAS VEGAS , Sept. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Hemp, Inc. division Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: HEMP) in association with Redemption Productions is proud to announce that the first Medical Grow Tour ( http://medicalgrowtour.com ) will be held at the Holiday Inn Portland Gresham in Portland, Oregon on December 1 and 2, 2012. 50 rooms are available at a special rate for the event.

Medical Grow Tour events are designed to enable individual medical marijuana patients to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to grow the best medicine possible, as their state allows. During these times of uncertainty for legitimate medical marijuana access points to be able to safely provide medicine for their qualified patients, the need for individuals to grow their own medicine has increased expeditiously. Medical Grow Tour features top industry professionals and includes rich visual presentations so that students are able to easily understand the information given. Classes cover room and soil preparation, plant propagation, natural pest remedies, organic nutrients, harvest, trim techniques, analytics and more.

Stephanie Bishop , Event Manager of Redemption Productions, whose extensive event management experience includes multiple years as vendor coordinator for Seattle Hempfest and other major industry events said, "We have commitments from preliminary sponsors and presenters including best-selling author Ed Rosenthal as the headline instructor. Ed is an authority on growing and has written some of the best known books on marijuana cultivation including "Marijuana Growers Handbook" which is currently being used as the official textbook for Oaksterdam University students. Ed Rosenthal 's curriculum can be viewed at http://edrosenthal.com/ .
