  1. MGoncalves

    Very good guide to grow and harvest your own spirulina, inexpensively and very efficiently. The author provides stop by step details.

  2. DW

    Excellent introductory guide to “farming” your own superfood in your living space. I sincerely appreciate that Dr. Baum tells you precisely how to mix your own growth medium. It shows me that he is more interested in the widespread dissemination of this knowledge, than he is in simply making a buck.

  3. Doesn’tmatter

    If you know nothing about spirulina and are interested in growing some for yourself and family, this is the right book.

    If you are looking for information on organic growing or a larger scale setup, this book lacks. Good information to add in the future or create another book for.

  4. Paul Nagle

    Dr. Baum is very well trained on the subject matter. This becomes obvious when you read the book. Being well trained or educated is one skill set. Being able to make this sometimes technical information easy to understand for the diverse population who are interested in this subject is another skill set. Dr. Baum has both of these skill sets in spades. He is a natural born teacher. I can’t wait for his next book.
