Resumen del Editor

Most gardeners realize that plants need to be fed but know little to nothing about the nature of the nutrients involved or how they get into plants. Teaming with Nutrients explains how nutrients move into plants and what both macro-nutrients and micro-nutrients do once inside. It shows organic gardeners how to provide these essentials. To fully explain how plants eat, Lowenfels uses his ability to make science accessible with lessons in biology, chemistry, and botany that all gardeners need to know to understand how nutrients get to the plant and what they do once they're inside it.

Teaming with Nutrients will open your eyes to the importance of understanding the role of nutrients in healthy, productive organic gardens, and it will show you how these nutrients do their jobs. In short, it will make you a better informed, more successful, and more environmentally responsible gardener.

Speed Controls

If you’re someone who listens faster then make sure to put this at 1.7x speed because the pauses are still there at 1.5x speed. Otherwise this book has everything you need to know about nutrients.

A clear understanding of plant nutrition

Really loved listening to this. Jeff simplifies things to gain a much better overall understanding of how plants process and uptake nutrients and what nutrients and elements they uptake. He gives instructions on everything from how to prepare soil and fertilizer mixtures, to the full understanding of the cellular pathway. Really a great book! Thank you guys!!

Very bizarre, annoying reading style.

The terrible audible reader reads. the. content. ... as. if. there. is. a. period. after. each. word. Normally the language will flow as one reads sentences as a whole. Just weird and annoying.

great overview of how plants work

great book of you are into plants and would like a deeper understanding about them.

blown away listening again

I am 100% listening again the amount of information in this book is astounding

Great information, very detailed

Good information , very in depth on the fourteen nutrients necessary for healthy thriving plants. Slightly overwhelming for a beginner

BE AWARE! Narrator mispronounces ‘nucleus’ and ‘nuclear’ THROUGHOUT!

I love this series. I love this book.

As a person who at 33 is trying to bootstrap himself to college-level competency in Chemistry and Biology, this is one of the best crash-courses on cell biology I have ever encountered.

I also enjoy the delivery. Some people found it too monotone, but I find it a reatively lively accompaniment to the admittedly dry material.

HOWEVER Chris Lutkin’s massacre of the pronunciation of science words continues unabated. The title example is particularly glaring because frankly, his interpretation, “nukuluss” and “nukular” are non-phonetic and clearly habits of mispronunciation he picked up in childhood from mal-educaadults around him and never had corrected.

There are dozens of other errors in this entry in the “Teaming” series…some pretty egregious. And as other reviewers said, they distract badly at times. But hey, a great way to practice zen buddhism!

I have a lot of respect for the “way” he reads. I am grateful this book is available on audio.

But god help us, either coach him on science terminology, or let him warm the bench while somebody else takes a swing at the next book. Please and thank you.

A must read

Well done again Jeff! I have listened to all of the series a half dozen times or more and none of it ever gets old and I am picking up more each time. Thank you so much for helping with a better understanding of what is what and the why and how. Very complete two thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼

Good Information

Goo and very informational. Lots of input for gardners. I Would recommend to everyone.

- truly remarkable work!

furthering the comprehensive knowledge of plant metabolism of nutrients; the symbiotic relation between bacteria and fungi facilitating nutrient exchange. it is quite remarkable the depths we can go with today's scientific instruments to watch these processe, in real time. remarkable
