LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Garden Dramatically Improved
When I first stumbled
across Maximum Yield, I
was desperate for answers
on how to heal my hurting
crop. Between bugs and
nutrient burn, it was causing me endless stress. I
tried every tip I was given
by others with no positive
results. Thanks to this
magazine, I am a more
knowledgeable grower and
my crops have dramatically
improved. Now, the first
section I check in the hydro
store is the magazine

rack. Maximum Yield is the
grower’s little helper and I don’t go a month without it.

hope you enjoy your $100 gift certificate at your favorite retail
store, Bare Roots in Redding, California.
Need More Comparisons
I think Maximum Yield could use more product reviews and
comparisons. Give me a scientific reason to change products
or brands. I think what you cover in the articles is perfect. You
seem to always cover my blind spot. It might be nice to see different experts covering the same problems or situations to see
how different techniques vary. Not necessarily who is right or
who is wrong, just different perspectives.

When to Fertilize
When I open a new issue of Maximum Yield, I find new and
different techniques for keeping my garden, both indoors and
outdoors, the best it can be. Then, when I think, “OK, I got
this,” along comes the next issue, allowing me to take things to
another level. My one suggestion is in relation to farm animals.
What about an article on the use of animal manure as fertilizer?
I work with animals and I see that the manure piles and the
run-off areas produce lush growth for vegetation. I know manure
can’t be used directly, and it takes time to compost, but how
long? When is it best to apply it? There must be a difference?

Standing Out on the Rack
The covers of Maximum Yield are attractive; every issue stands
out against other publications on the same rack. I think this
represents a quality, well
