Home Garden Hydroponics

This book, Home Garden Hydroponics, is excellent reading for prospective hydroponic gardeners, especially beginners. Complete with directions for building a hobby hydroponic greenhouse garden system with materials available at most home building centers, it includes an architect's drawing and material lists. It gives step by step directions for constructing a Conestoga wagon style hobby greenhouse using PVC pipes for hoops. Plastic rain gutters are used for growing trays. It also provides information for buying ready made hydroponic systems. Based on the author's four years experience as a hydroponic garden hobbyist, it tells a word and picture story of growing, basil, bell peppers, strawberries and tomatoes. Starting with a foreword of the necessity to develop alternatives to traditional dirt farming, especially in arid regions with poor soil, the author contends hydroponics should play a major role in feeding the starving people in impoverished countries. With a quick historical reviw of hydroponics, and how his own interest was piqued when he retired, the author tells how readers can emulate what he has done in acquiring knowledge and having fun with hydroponics. He relates how he does his gardening standing up eliminating, bending, hoeing, stooping, sweating and contending with soil borne creatures, diseases and biting insects. I like this book because it is written in a "down home" style. I especially like the author's offer to provide one year of FREE consultation by phone or e-mail to anyone who buys the book.
