Ed Rosenthal 
Happy Buds 
Marijuana for Any Occasion

What’s the best bud when you go out to party and want to live it up? Feeling a little down and need to let go? Feeling stressed and need to slow down? Need to focus on a complicated task?

Even the casual user knows the two types of marijuana, indica and sativa, and within these broad categories are literally thousands of varieties, each with its own effects. Marijuana botanists have crossbred varieties to enhance or diminish characteristics.
Happy Buds is all about the effects of these varieties and the choosing which buds to select will open new doors for casual and regular users alike.

Thirty million Americans openly admit to using marijuana regularly, the market for
Happy Buds is already huge and growing every day. Some use it to help get their day started, some to help them focus deeply on the task at hand and some to just help them chill and end their day with a good night’s sleep.

Derived from the successful
Big Book of Buds series,
Happy Buds gives the reader guidance with up to five choices of buds that work best for over 20 occasions. As the number of states (15 as of November 2010) that have legalized medical marijuana and the number of dispensaries grows, finding that perfect bud, seed or plant has become much easier.


Ed Rosenthal is the most recognized author of marijuana books with aggregate sales over two million copies, most recently
The Big Book of Buds 4 and
Marijuana Grower’s Handbook.
