Gardening Made Easy: Step-By-Step To a Beautiful Garden (12 parts in 7 Volumes)
Review Date: 12/2/2012


This is a great set of binders for anyone who loves to garden, either the beginner or experienced person. The photos alone are wonderful. There is so much information presented in a clear, easy to understand format. Each card page is a fold out full of great information and multiple pictures.

Be aware that this ISBN covers 7 individual ring binders. When this set came out, it was sort of like book of the month. You would get a packet of assorted cards that covered any of 12 topics. So be aware that if you order or pick up this binder here or somewhere else, you may not be getting a full set of 7 binders, and the single one may not have all of its card pages, since the publisher sent them out in assortments.

Having said that, if you can get the entire set, it is something you won't want to part with. I have all 7 binders, but still need some of the cards. So I am always excited to see this title come up.

I started to buy this book, but I did more research, since this author is always controversial. I am glad I did; and here is what I found...unfortunately more negatives than positives. ....for myself I will pass on this one........

the following comments are from other reviewers, and not my own statements.



The statement on TV, is that the drug free product, that consumers take daily, can be brought anywhere...is totally incorrect. Someone is misinforming the public. Hcg can not be purchased in health food stores or purchase by the average public. Also, this product can only be administered by medical personnel with experience in drawing up the proper amount of hcg to inject on a daily basis. DON'T BE MISINFORMED, WHEN IT COMES TO YOU HEALTH.

I think he's got some good info, but I'm just disappointed in that he's suggesting practices that have yet to be proven as safe and healthy. As well, to follow this, even the first 30 days which are highly suggested yet not required, you need to have LOTS and LOTS of money for a lot of supplements, vitamins, procedures and then when you get past that, MORE money to buy injections which are barely even considered legal and only obtained through, it seemed through his reading, unethical measures through a medical professional, which, once again, he is not. I believe the author is is interesting, but I believe he is a little too eccentric with some of his thoughts and writings. I don't want to discredit him completely, but I have a hard time putting my complete trust in his writings.

How disappointing after waiting months for this book to come out to find that the 'natural' cure is a daily injection administered by a doctor, a truck-load of supplements,frequent colonics, and massages, while eliminating prescription meds and body lotion. While I don't dispute that it works, it's just not doable for many of us. I'll stick with a healthy diet and exercise program, thank you.


This book was a rip off, first it tells you to get 15 colonics in 30 days, that just is ridiculous in itself. Then you have to get weekly injections of hcg which most likley your Doctor will not approve. This diet does not sound Healthy for you at all it sounds ridiculous and practically impossible for any normal person to do. I'm sorry I wasted my money.

All I have to say is that any RESPECTABLE author need not resort to 'Informercials' to sell a book. THAT was my first warning. Upon further research and after reading other opinions of this 'phoney' I concluded not to buy his weight loss book and not to pass a second glance at anything with Kevin Trudeau's name attached to it. Shame on you again Trudeau for insulting the knowledgeable public.

I was disappointed when I got my book to discover that you have to take weekly injections of the prescription drug hCG to be effective. The average person doesn't have access to this drug without visiting a physician, who most likely will be unwilling to prescribe.
