Help with the industry

So I'm extremely passionate about cannabis and its growth process, however I have no experience actually growing. I do my own personal studies on plant biology and cannabis, really all I can do. I'm afraid of waiting around forever just hoping there's finally an available entry level cannabis cultivation job in my area. I live in central California, and the only position I see online that is available requires a year of experience.

Does anyone have advice on what I should do? How I should go about this? What I can do right now? Where is the best place to look for available positions?

I'm very passionate about this and I know I want this to be a career. I'm very much interested in the cultivation aspect of it, and I can see myself working hard to become a knowledgeable cultivator. But I'm afraid of just sitting around and gaining no experience. Especially because I currently live with my mother in the suburbs, and she isnt exactly supportive of me growing in the house.
