Bewildered by all the hype

Here you'll find solid information, insiders tips and
tricks, and free plans and instructions to get you started. Why should you listen to me? Because, I've been where you are now...
bewildered by all the "hydroponics hype".
I just love home-grown veggies, and have been an avid gardener all my life
(let's just say for a few years). But I always hated the ground-breaking labor and
awful weeding involved. That's why hydroponic gardening caught my
fancy. An easy way to a great-tasting tomato?

- I surfed the web for all the info I could find.
- I read every book I could get my hands on.
- I collected a big stack of catalogs from
seed farms and product manufacturers.
- I even visited a couple of commercial hydroponics farms and picked their brains.
Yikes! I ended up more confused than ever. How-to advice conflicted. Retailers
all hawked "the best systems". I studied and surfed and bought and planted and
ebbed and flowed. The neighbors even started gossiping about me and Ralph, the UPS
man.
Well, I made many mistakes, spent lots of money, tried several different "systems", and had some failures along the way. But I finally figured it out! I eventually harvested some of the best produce I have ever tasted. And my herb pots went wild! I was hooked! None of my previous gardens could hold a candle to my "Hydroponic Gardening Projects".
And I want to share it all with you... I
made the mistakes so you don't have to.
