For over 70 years the Ball RedBook has been helping growers produce better crops. The 17th edition has so much information that we had to split it up into two volumes!

Set Includes:
Ball RedBook Volume 1, 17th Edition Greenhouses & Equipment
In the first volume, Greenhouses and Equipment, general editor Chris Beytes has compiled the latest information from industry experts on subjects such as greenhouse structures, glazing, benches, curtains, irrigation, climate control, mechanization, transport, pest control equipment, the headhouse, business management, and the retail greenhouse.

Ball RedBook Volume 2, 17th Edition Crop Production
Volume 2 is a complete guide to growing a range of crops, from annuals, perennials, herbs, tropicals, potted plants, and vegetable plugs. Part 1 of this volume focuses an the myriad components of successful crops--from media, pH, nutrition, water quality, temperature, light growth regulators, pest and disease management, propagating both seed and vegetative crops, and postharvest care. Part 2 lists by genera crop after crop--over 160!--and how best to grow them. Included for each is information about propagation, growing on, pest control, troubleshooting, varieties, and postharvest care
