Item arrived as described

I won't know if I "love" it or just "like' it until the fall or winter, when I might actually have time to try some of the projects in this book. (Right now, I'm just trying to keep up with caring for my indoor plants and my outdoor gardens). But this book is very well written ("down to earth," if you'll excuse the pun) and the directions/explanations are clear and should be easy to follow. The author also has a good sense of humor and quite a knack for making the most out of inexpensive household items, seeds, and garden equipment. Especially given the cold climate where she lives, she's had impressive results raising a variety of micro-greens and other edibles all year round. Definitely worth the money.

This book had my name written all over it. People in small apartments will benefit providing the window isn't facing an adjoining wall. In that case, microgreens - cilantro, basil and parsley might be the answer. My parsley and basil are spindly after a month and a half. Cilantro are growing gangbuster. I started this in mid-March where are temps are unpredictable. The book covers everything from tomatoes to sprouts and herbs.This book got me off my procrastinating butt to attempt apartment gardening. Oh yeah, the book covers outdoor gardening.

My kids and I love this book. In Texas it is way to hot, for me, to grow food out doors. We have a thriving xeriscape garden, but want fresh veggies to grow and eat. I heard the author on NPR and was amazed how fun and simple it could be to use our sunny indoor spaces and recycled containers to grow food. I ran to the library and read the book cover to cover - a fun and easy read. Then we ordered it on Amazon. You can feel the author's enthusiasm and humor in the text. The photos show the stages of prepping, planting and care beautifully. The possibilities are endless, but the author suggests making a simple plan to start. You could get overly ambitious seeing all the gorgeous photos of indoor veggies, sprouts,mushrooms etc. We are starting with microgreens and kale pots in three locations in our house. We are excited to our see first shoots in a few days. My kids are actually looking forward to tasting the greens (a first!). I think a new or seasoned gardener would love this book.

This is a fantastic book for anyone who wants to grow food vegetation indoors. Ms. Millard's techniques are well-tested, and if you follow them, they work. She provides thorough advice for starting and growing many different types of food plants. The book is well laid out into clear sections for microgreens, sprouts, herbs, many larger vegetables including tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, and others. She tells you which varieties of which plants are most suited to indoor container gardening and why. Her gardening advice is sprinkled with well-placed humor throughout the book. I have had great success following her gardening techniques, and I am a classic "brown thumb" type of person. Highly recommend.

So much information if you are looking to grow small indoor gardens. Lots of material on microgreens and similar plants.

Gifted this to a granddaughter who is celiac and eats gluten free and vegan. She can grow what she needs. She liked it so well I'm getting for other YA grandkids. It tells what to do and how.

I'm happy with the knowledge I am gaining from this book.
