4.0 out of 5 stars helpful -- pictures would have helped though, November 4, 1999

Though I do agree the price was a bit high for little more than a large pamphlet, the information within it is very helpful for people growing ska maria pastora. pictures would have added an imense amount to the book (in my not-so-humble opinion).

hopefully more literature on this plant will follow... for now, this is an adequate guide.

3.0 out of 5 stars Probably Not Worth the Money, April 22, 2000

This review is from: The Salvia Divinorum Grower's Guide (Paperback)

First of all, this book is massively overpriced. Although there is a lot of good information here, frankly most of it can be found for free on the Web. A lot of common sense gardening stuff, I'm afraid. Not that "SDGG" isn't without any merit. the section of rooting cuttings was especially interesting. If you are growing S. Divinorum seriously (you know what I mean) or are a serious brown-thumb with an interest in ethnogens then consider investing, if not... This would have been a 4-5 star book at $7.95, pity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and Thoughtfull Guide to Salvia, November 21, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Salvia Divinorum Grower's Guide (Paperback)

If you want to grow Salvia divinorum, I highly recommend this book.

I was having problem growing this very special plant, but with the help of this book my plants are now doing GREAT! What I really like about the Salvia Divinorum Grower's Guide is that it provides tried and true methods from real experts -- not just a bunch of Internet (advice) It's very clear that the authors not only know what they are doing, but they have a very cool and inspiring reverence for this power plant.

I just bought another copy to send to a friend as a gift (which is why I'm here writing this review.)
