I have read some of Albrechts work, but much prefer to read it the easy way, in Neal Kinsey's book HANDS ON AGRONOMY. I keep mentioning this book, but I don't think any of you have bought a copy yet because you'd talk about it if you had. ..................
Based on that, I thought maybe I should invest in that book. Looked on eBay, looked on Amazon.com. Costs less than $20. I discovered that Amazon will let you pretty much read the thing on their web site. I'm not sure how they get away with that.
I read up to page 46 tonight. Certainly there is some information there but nearly all of what I have read so far is story after story that proves the lab he runs does a better job than anyone else. I think I'll read some more tomorrow night. There will be more to it than a continuing promotion of his lab... right?

Never mind about Amazon letting you read nearly the whole thing online. As you might have guessed, you can't. It seems to show page after page available. I had it showing up to page 160 and able to continue on. Just because it shows those pages available, that doesn't mean they are. When I got to page 49, it wasn't actually available. Page 50 was available but nothing after that seemed to be viewable.
I'm still tempted to spring for the book. I wish I knew if it would actually do me any good. I'm certainly not a farmer. Just a home vegetable gardener and a grower of several fruit trees.
