Publisher's Summary

You are about to discover how to develop a highly productive garden that supplies you with fresh herbs, fruits, and vegetables all year round by leveraging the power of greenhouse gardening and hydroponics!

Now more than ever, people are increasingly looking for efficient ways of growing fruits and vegetables – ways that are not at the mercy of the environment; ways they can create ideal environmental conditions for growth of plants within the growing area even when the surrounding is hostile or unsuitable for such plants. They are also looking for ways that can do away with the limitations that come with soil (like pests, diseases, inefficient supply of nutrients, leaching of nutrients, etc.) and more.

If you think these are wishes straight out of a science fiction movie, you are wrong; these are ways that ordinary people like you and me are using to maximize their yields, make their gardens highly productive, cut unnecessary costs, deal with some of the challenges that come with traditional farming, and more.

And this two-in-one book is introducing you to two of the top ways through which you can make that possible: greenhouse gardening and hydroponics!

Not comprehensible

Mangled English hides good info

Spoiler: I only listened to about an hour. I think there's some good info in there but the structure of sentences, invented words and automatic reader errors, general mistakes and robotic voice and reading make it a no go for me.
