Question Culture Sheets

Are the culture sheets available from Charles and Margaret Baker (available online) worth the $$$? Has anyone ever purchased them?

If not, where do you get culture sheets/information from (besides this wonderful board) ?


Thanks!!

You can get cultural sheets from AOS | Home (AOS) I have seen the Baker sheets and for some growers I believe there is more info there than what you realy need. I could be wrong but I would not spend the money on them. Althou they do have more culture sheets on more plants than anyone else.

The Baker's sheets are far more detailed, telling you how the climate changes seasonally, so are well worth the money.

For $1 per culture sheet, in my opinion, it's definitely worth the money. But it's easy enough to decide for yourself because there are several free sample culture sheets to look through.

They're worth it if you're dealing with unusual plants not very many people know how to grow. That is if they have a culture sheet on them...
