This book is extremely helpful, written by Jerry Baker, using everyday household items to help with gardening problems. Some topics covered are Flower Fixes, Vegetable Victories, Fruit Solutions, Herbal Helpers, Nip it in the Bud, Jerry's Mixers and Elixirs. Book is well written and easy to read. Helps to provide "fixes" for all sorts of gardening issues using no insecticides or harmful products. Cute little illustrations and book layout make this "how-to" helper a pleasure to read!
I bought this book because I have been a faithful follower of Jerry Baker's for years. I have the Garden Secrets book that I got probably 8 years ago, and have read it over and over until I am starting to memorize it!! This book is great too, not as good as Garden Secrets but very good. He describes things in easy to read terms so everyone can understand it and uses humor in his writing. You won't be sorry with this one!
I new it was one of his older books, but it still a lot of good ideas.... Came boxes and wrapped nicely..

This "giant" book of 1,954 gardening tips, tricks, and solutions is likeable because the writer, Jerry Baker, is a television personality. If you liked his PBS tv shows, then you'll like his books. The retail price $29.95 is kinda high considering that there is no color photography; but the black and white cartoon illustrations are humorous. The book is small, fun and entertaining to read. Great bedtime reading.....
Good purchase. Like the use of common items to cure planting problems.
