Review Date: January 7, 2003
Reviewer: L. Hubbard, santa fe, nm United States
After reading a rather scathing review posted on Amazon.com entitled "Get an editor" I chose not to order this book. Later, I happened across the book at Borders, thumbed through and purchased it. The book is is excellent!

I believe the review misleads readers. I will address the two specific criticisms: Bad chemistry? Resh very carefully explains the concept of PH ( the reviewer missed this)-reference to a PH of 4.0 as very acidic was relative to the PH needs of tomatoes and, in fact, 4.0 is very acidic for a tomato (just a fact of life, not bad chemistry). Sulphuric acid for novices? Resh talks about sulphuric acid/hydroxides because they are, indeed, used within hydroponics (see hydroponic supply web sites). However, he is very clear that he does not recommend their use and lists the same reasons given by the reviewer (somehow the reviewer overlooked this also).Resh goes on to recommend specific safety measures for those who insist on their use.

The book is clearly written, well illustrated and extremely practical. I have read it twice and highly recommend it.

Very helpful

Reviewer: ,
This short book is intelligently laid out, with just the right amount of diagrams. The text is easy to follow, even for a beginner. I am in the middle of attempting to follow Howard Resh's advice, as of early October 2001. If he is correct, I could be enjoying my first harvest before November!...

Product Description

Rain Barrels are great for storing water, but how do you get the water to where you really need it? The unique (US patent pending) internal pump and plumbing outlet assembly gives you the power to get the water from your rain barrel to where you need it. You can even close the nozzle while the pump is running, without fear of causing damage to the pump. This lets you conserve precious water by turning off your hose while you walk from one area of the garden to another. The 1 HP submersible dirty water vortex rain barrel pump is suitable for rainwater and gray water. It provides plenty of pressure through up to 100' of garden hose. The pump creates a jet / spray of 25 feet from the nozzle. The irrigation water pump is built to last and comes with a 1 year limited warranty. A volume relief tube allows water to circulate inside the rain barrel which keeps the barrel clean by constantly stirring any solids in the water. The anti-siphon air admitter prevents water loss via siphoning. The Rain Barrel Pump and Hose Kit includes 50 ft of the highest quality 3/4" kink resistant hose on the market and a top of the line adjustable brass nozzle. The Rain Barrel and Hose Kit by Just Water Savers will bring you years of watering pleasure. The rain barrell pump and hose kit is Made in the USA and comes with Factory Direct Hose's 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.
