Growing on coconut , an easy to read how-to-do-it book. In friendly and no-nonsense chapters with many photos and diagrams 'Growing on Coconut' shows the reader how to build an indoor garden, control the climate and grow plants on a coconut-fibre based system.
The author says that he is excited about coconut-fibre because: "It is so user and environmentally friendly. No nasty rockwool scratching your skin or getting up your nose, and you can dispose of used coconut on any garden or in the compost heap. Besides all that, it's really good for the plants.
It's nice to know that my plants are as happy as they will make me later."
With many colour photos and diagrams.
Available in Dutch, English, German, French and Spanish.

Simply Soil, also an easy to read step by step guide.
After a few mistakes "that didn't taste so bad" and quite some time, the author realised that he had just about got it right and made notes with instructions for other beginners. Friends inspired him to write his first book 'Hydroponics on Rockwool' because they liked the notes so much.
In 'Simply Soil' he has stuck to his mission to write fun and easy to read step-by-step guides. He uses simple diagrams and plenty of photos to illustrate the project and to show the results that readers will want to see.
With many colour photos and diagrams.
Available in Dutch, English, German, French and Spanish.

Hydroponics on rockwool , a step by step guide that goes through all the aspects you have to deal with once you start growing on rockwool indoors. The author motivates the products of his pen: "The frustration of trying to create a simple, effective, indoor growing environment with the currently available books, videos and conflicting verbal advice drove me to writing. This may be a decision I will live to regret. Drugs or drink may well have been a better solution". Fortunately, he has not had any regrets and he has also written 'Growing on Coconut' as well as 'Simply soil'.
With many colour photos and diagrams.
Available in Dutch, English, German, French and Spanish.
