While reading is definitely going to help to understand the basics of a good crop, experience and intuitiveness will also play a big part. Had I spent a hundred dollars on ten seeds when I first started, I would have been severely pissed - yet, at the time, I was sure that I knew everything that there was to know! This was quite a while ago, and I've improved much since then . . . but there's still a whole lot that I've yet to learn. Only now, I learn less from books and similar sources - and far more from experience and experiments!
