5 Stars GOOD BOOK FOR BEGINNERS
VERY EASY TO UNDERSTAND BOOK FOR THE BEGINNER, USEFULL TO START A NEW GARDEN.I LOOK FORWARD TO USING STUFF I HAVE LEARNED IN THIS YEARS CROP.

I HAD A BASIC WORKING KNOWLELGE OF THE PRINCIPALS INVOLVED BEFORE BUYING THIS BOOK AND IT ANSWERS ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, WELL ILLUSTRATED ALSO. I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK FOR BEGINNERS.

4 Stars Good book
In a world where most hydroponics books talk about the exotic ways to grow things, this book covers a basic approach which would seem to insure success. I don’t know about others but it helped me find and correct several misconceptions and problems that I have been experiencing with my hobby level hydro growing (excessive watering, inapropriate nutrient levels, etc.) Overall, a good text for beginning or hobby level hydroponic growing.

3 Stars Out of date information
I purchased this book because it had supposedly been “Completely Revised and Updated” in 2005. That is rather hard to believe as most of the methods discussed are no longer appropriate. Also the copyright says 1992. However the book does have its high points. The section on selecting and growing herbs is outstanding. Also included is very good info on which herbs to use with certain foods along with recipes from professional chefs. Using hydroponic systems outdoors is also covered. I would recommend this book as an addition to a collection of hydroponic books. If you only buy one book there are many other better ones such as “How-To Hydroponics” by Keith Roberto. “Hobby Hydroponics” by Howard M. Resh would be another great choce. All in all anyone would probably learn something new from this or any other hydroponic book that would justify the price.

The bulbs employ a special, European fitting that fits into that AeroGarden grow lamp to discourage the use of other bulbs that may cause fires and promote slower plant growth with inferior light. AeroGarden bulbs are extremely energy efficient and should be replaced after 6 months of continuous use in order to maintain their peak effectiveness and maximize plant growth.

5 Stars What I wanted
This is the real deal at a better price than I can get locally. Appreciated getting the opportunity to get what I wanted at a savings!

3 Stars Poor fit
Bulbs are great, when they fit. My 1st set were a snug fit and stayed lit the whole 6+ months (still light up and are my back ups) The replacement set, I am VERY dissatisfied with. One bulb fits great, the other is VERY loose in the socket and will not stay lit and threatens to fall out. Old bulb still fits fine. The bulb is a poor design and not conformed between the bulbs. Am contacting AeroGarden for a replacment. Otherwise, these bulbs keep working even with Florida power outages and if they corrected the bulb fit problem, these would be perfect.

5 Stars LOVE my AeroGarden
I purchased my first AeroGarden 2 years ago and I just now needed to replace the lights. They lasted much longer than the company said they would. I recently purchased a second AeroGarden and am growing cherry tomatoes in one and romaine in the other! I truly have a black thumb, so I have been amazed at the success I’ve had with the AeroGarden!

5 Stars Good as new
AeroGarden Classic Replacement Grow Bulbs, Package of 2When I started my second garden, I read that the grow bulbs should be replaced around nine months. Since my garden had sat unused for a little while, I ordered replacement bulbs and within a week of receiving them, the little flashing light told me I needed to replace them. It was easy to do and my garden is flourishing. Thanks, Amazon.

4 Stars Works Well
The Aero Grow bulb works well. I only gave it 4 stars because I’m waiting to see how long before in needs replacing.
