Everything You Need to Start Gardening

This is a complete guide to starting your own gardening in a greenhouse. I was enthralled by the prospect. The author gives a great description of all the tools you would need to start with and what is best to grow in your greenhouse. We should all grow our own food if we are able to. We have a community garden where we live and it is great fun and the vegetables are delicious. Thank you for this information. Wish I had done this years ago!

Excellent information for a newbie

This book is an execellent guide from start to finish on how to start a greenhouse. The author provides insight that you wouldn't consider such as making sure you can legally establish a greenhouse in your backyard and why you should by the best garden gloves. I had no idea you can.plant a range of crops such as a bananas and oranges in a greenhouse. I aslo appreciate the insight for how to sell your produce (as a side hustle). The narration was also very good, great pace and engaging.

Building a greenhouse, taking care, selling from

This book discusses the different kinds of greenhouses-cold frame, attached, lean to, and free standing. It then discusses what you can grow in a greenhouse. It talks about good and bad pests and plants. It concludes with selling from your greenhouse. I enjoyed the book.

I Want a Greenhouse!

I’ve always wanted a greenhouse and this audiobook make that dream seem possible. I love all the practical suggestions for creating one. It’s such a nice dream to feed during the long cold winter when I can’t actually go outside and work in my garden.

I’m also a big proponent of growing my own food as much as possible. I would be in gardener heaven if I had my own greenhouse.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who shares my dream or puts their dream into reality by getting and following this book.

Well-structured greenhouse guide for beginners!

This wonderful book provides an essential and detailed guide for newbies like me. It focuses on setting up and designing your greenhouse from ground to finish, as well as the must-haves to ensure top quality crops. The author also shares helpful insights on how to maintain and identify both the good and bad pests for your greenhouse.

What I truly love about this book was when the author shares about how I can make profit from it. My wife and I have always wanted to start our own greenhouse, but we have never thought about getting a profit out of it. It is full of valuable and well-structured information that's why I highly recommend this book to everyone, especially to those who are new to gardening!

Useful guide for Greenhouse Beginners

I loved this audiobook as gardening is one of my hobbies so I found this book very informative about greenhouses. I have learned many other techniques of gardening.

This audiobook gave me motivation to start my greenhouse as it is a great idea for saving the earth. Especially for greenhouse beginners, it is a source of motivation.

The narrator has narrated in a well way and I appreciate the effort of the author for choosing an incredible word choice.

Sorted my spring holiday task!

This audio book is a happy dose! We are living in a world where everything is now manufactured using short cuts and even fruits and veggies we consume are a part of this process now. The audio book highlights the importance of having your own luscious green yard where you can grow your favorite things. I love the author's focus on green color as it's great for our health. lovely read!

Love this, ready in time for allotment season in spring!

Amazingly detailed book concerning in-house plant growing, perfect for people of all ages and full of wisdom. I love the detailed nuance the author has gone into, it’s genuinely a science lesson as well as a greenhouse growing book.

Personally, my favourite chapter was number 5, where the author details the importance of “good” pests, as well as “bad” pests in the greenhouse. Of course if you are planting various plants making a complex habitat, you will attract insects of various qualities, so it is important to learn about particular insect behaviours and what sort of plants can use insects to their advantage so your garden can flourish.

Outstanding audiobook for the newbie enthusiast

Ever since I was a kid and we had a next door neighbor with a greenhouse, I have always thought about what it would be like to pursue this hobby and have a greenhouse. Contrary to what many people think, as this book discloses, greenhouses are no longer just for the rich. This audiobook covers essentially everything a novice, like me, needs to know to get started in the pastime, including the various greenhouse designs available, ranging from the small and modestly-sized greenhouses to something much more extravagant. And if I wasn't completely convinced about the health benefits of having a greenhouse, I am now completely convinced after listening to Backyard Abundance for Greenhouse Beginners. In fact, I'm ready to get started with my own greenhouse yesterday! Another advantage of listening to Backyard Abundance for Greenhouse Beginners is that it will help you avoid many of the common mistakes that newbie greenhouse enthusiasts make. Of course, if you want to know what those mistakes are you will have to listen to this audiobook. But if you told me that I was allowed to pick one section and only one section from this audiobook as my favorite, then I'd have to say it’s the one about how to turning this hobby into a source of extra income.

Gardening all year round

We are increasingly shifting towards healthier living lifestyles and the choice of vegetables at the grocery store is now becoming one of whether its organic or not or worse still whether its available due to the season.

This audiobook provides a headway for individuals to make a headstart to solve that problem for themselves by providing a robust guide to greenhouse gardening for beginners. There are lots of myths about greenhouses but the author goes into detail on how to start, the choice of produce, maintenance, pest management and lots more.

There could be a better opportunity or time to consider having a consistent all-year-round supply of fresh produce. I,m In. Very recommended.

Absolutely Fantastic

I've been struggling to get going with creating a greenhouse and then I discovered this book. It's brilliant, an absolute game-changer! Packed with step-by-step instructions and tons of useful information and suggestions, this has become my go-to guide to getting my greenhouse on track. And I'm not even a gardener or an architect! I also love all the other aspects the book covers particularly the info on the best fruit, herbs and vegetables to plant once the greenhouse is set up. Highly recommend!
