"The green thumb in you."

A little book (only 36 minutes) that where the appetite but little more. The chapters are, in my opinion, wronly ordered with the benefits of hydroponics being the final rather that the first. Instead, the reader, after a rather repetitious intro which gives a quick history of it's usage by the Ancient Egyptians and Mexican Aztecs, and the need to determine which of six different systems will be used, logically begins by listing those systems, then the nutrients and substrates most frequently used and then, very briefly, how to set up the systems - including the magic words 'but a kit'.
The narration by CJ McAllister was clear, well modulated and easy to absorb.

As a long time gardener wishing to experiment a bit in the coming year, I felt that I really hadn't gained much, especially since it is mentioned that different systems are more suited to different crops without enlarging on this, so was, instead, rather discouraged until that last chapter on the benefits.
This has renewed my enthusiasm and my intention to find something a little more helpful. Still, as a very basic starter it was all right and it was a download from Audiobooks Unleashed, so my thanks to the rights holder who made this brief book freely available to anyone requesting it
