Customer Reviews

The Commercial Greenhouse, 3rd Ed.

The text is very informative and well put together but the study questions at the end of each chapter occasionally reflect that they are based on the 2nd Ed. not the 3rd.

The Commercial Greenhouse

This is a good book, written as a first or second year college text book. It covers many topics associated with commercial greenhouse operations in a general manner, with a few topics covered in greater depth. It is informative and worth having on your shelf if your considering a commercial greenhouse operation.
