Reviewer: Science Garden Neighbor, risetolife, Taylorsville, UT United States   -  
If I were to recommend one book, or if I could only have one book about gardening, this would have to be the one. I've had this book for a little over 2 years and it's damn near worn out already. I've read it cover to cover 2 times and refer to it constantly. I used to hate yard work and gardening but now, in 2 years I've developed a wonderful small garden plot that rivals the author's own pictures.

The first year of using this method of gardening, my neighbor peered over the fence, beer in hand, gave a quizzical look and wanted to know if I was doing some strange kind of science garden. Two months later when the results started rolling in (along with the lettuce that's hard to
grow in this part of the country), my skeptical mother, who was raised on a farm in Canada, could not stop raving and telling everyone what a wonderful garden I had.

This year it's going to be even better... and I'm expanding my vertical crops all over the place! If you have any interest in gardening, no matter your experience level (but very inspirational for beginners), this is the book for you.

From what should be the simple obvious way to garden, and with its extremely effective methods, to the great tips and ideas, along with the book's simple readability... this book
is tops. Look no further!
