Plethora of useful info at your fingertips
Being an empiricist by nature, this book should be considered a must have for any hydroponics endeavour. The book is well laid out and extremely well illustrated. The chapters are short and to the point and offer insight into how to solve issues, not engage in some esoteric discussion of which calcium is better. While there is some discussion of that bature it is kept to a minimum and only brough up when really neccessary. For the most part I use the book as a reference and get the info I need rather than attempting to read it from cover to cover. Using this approach allows me to solve issues and problems, not thumb through the book looking for something I have nearly forgotten or missinterpreted from the beginning. Definately worth the money and with the super saver shipping and the three for special I got all three for less than the retail price of each one, Good score!!!!

I would highly recommend this book to anyone starting a garden indoors for the first time.
I am just starting into Hydroponics for the first time. I will grow some hot pepper plants indoors. I had read a lot of different info on the web and did learn a little. But almost all the info I could find was about growing pot! Growing vegetables is just not the same, yes captain obvious here. I wish I had found this book first however, as it would have saved me a lot of hunting and wasted time. It is a very complete and organized source of information on this subject. It explained lighting very well and without it I would not have been able to do this. He explains how to figure out how much light you need and how to provide it. I wanted to use fluorescent lighting and could not find any detailed info on the subject. This book covers the entire subject of indoor gardening and not just lighting. He covers growing in dirt or hydroponics. I would highly recommend this book to anyone starting a garden indoors for the first time. Or if you have tried to grow vegetables inside and just did not do very well.

Best foundational book on the subject
After seven years of purchasing books here, this is my first review. I think so highly of this book I had to write a review. High quality product, and information. This book may not have enough meat for a graduate student to use but certainaly the greenhouse owner or gardenstore worker will benefit greatly. Nice depth in wide array of topics. Good full color photographs used liberally throughout the book. Very best information available on lighting in the greenhouse or indoor applications. I have read a full dozen books on hydroponics, and greenhouse operations for the home grower or small farm. This is the best. If you need one book this is it.

Everything about plants
This book gives a good foundation in horticulture. You will understand what your plants need and how to give it to them. Some reviewers have complained that there is only one chapter about hydroponics. That is true, but much of the information in other chapters will apply to any kind of garden- dirt or hydro. This book really does have ALL the information I needed for any kind of indoor garden I'm likely to plant.
