Your Tuesday Tidbit—Hobo Wells Hydroponics

Wendel Hot Springs, February 15, 2018

Actually, this is slightly different take on things. In the 1970s, Philip Gutman’s Hobo Wells Hydroponic operation at Wendel seemed to have a bright future. By 1975, Lassen College incorporated into its curriculum an offered an Associated Arts Degree in Hydroponics.  By the late 1970s, Geoproducts, Inc. became involved to expand the enterprise. By the early 1980s the operation was abandoned. Does anyone know why it shuttered?
