Greenhouse Vegetable Gardening: Expert Advice on How to Grow Vegetables, Herbs, and Other Plants

Does Every Greenhouse in Sweden Grow So Beautifully?
Wonderful Book! Written for Sweden and Swedish gardeners, intriguing for me here in the USA to read references to Swedish landmarks as boundaries for plant hardiness: "Tall Purple Bodach won't live through the winter outside the greenhouse much north of Stockholm." ("Really," I muse. "Hmmm. I wonder what that means to ME?") But references INSIDE the greenhouse apply anywhere, once the doors and vents are closed. Vegetables and fruits still grow and flourish in the same circumstances -- or don't. I absolutely LOVED the author's assumptions that every greenhouse WOULD have a grapevine growing inside it, at one end opposite the door. That must mean every greenhouse in Sweden has a grapevine in it? Now I'll have to go see... Lots of good growing tips and advice, especially for practical food growing, from a hands-on grower among a nation of hands-on growers, sounds like. I loved this book and I am currently recommending it to like-minded friends!

I have read through this book several times and learn something new every time! It is well marked and tagged. All my questions have been well answered in this book. This is a MUST read for beginner and novice hobby greenhouse growers alike!

Very small print
This book has a lot of good information and nice pictures but the print is very small, I haven't seen a book with such small print before. Other than that it's a very good book, well written and lots of good information. Glad I bought it. It was shipped very quickly, seller was great and I'd definitely do business with them again. I only gave 4 stars because of the small print but the seller themselves get 5 stars.

Great Book Helpful for Beginners
I really like the content of this book. It is a very detailed way to help someone start a greenhouse from deciding what type of plants to use to helping to determine the best methods for you to grow them. I like how this book displays your options but doesn't force you towards any one option, it basically says that if you want to do this then these methods are recommended for you but if you'd rather do this than these are better options for you. The one downside to the book is that a lot of space is wasted on pictures and the text itself is pretty small.

Great learning tool
If you’re new to greenhouse gardening then this is the book for you. So much basic but important information for everything packed into a readable number of pages.

More about growing things in Sweden than America. Not as general as I thought it would be

Very Comprehensive.
Bought for hubby and his new greenhouse, he likes the book and finds it informative with lots of good ideas and practical tips. I'm sure it will be used time and again for reference.

Nice read
Easy to understand and nice pictures but the fine print is small. I’m in my late 40’s and I have to put on reading glasses to see the print.
