5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book for Getting Started, April 14, 2002

I have checked out every available book from the library on hydroponics and this is the one that impressed me enough to add to my personal library. And because I am so impressed with Dr. Resh's information I'm also buying his book, Hydroponic Tomatoes for the Home Gardener.

The illustrations are not really usable, the pictures are dated there's nothing about water testing equipment etc. The systems described are in vague terms with little or no details. If you are looking for a good book on hydroponics for the beginner my advice would be to look elsewhere.

This was a bit complicated. It makes Hydroponics sound very difficult and in actuallity it isn't. Would be nice to get a book that tells us inside gardeners simple instructions on how to grow hydroponicly and get really great results.
