What's This?
 
    This is a glorious A-to-Z guide for growing vegetables, filled with juicy photos (taken from the author's own garden), illustrations, instructive charts, and sidebars. From acorn squash to zucchini, master organic gardener Edward Smith provides a complete character study of each vegetable from seed stage to final harvest. In general, Smith discusses ideal climate, Ph levels and acidity, fertilization, and weed control. He provides many insider tips on how to raise abundant crops in particular climates. (A few quick hints: wide rows, raised beds, and deep soil.) Easy-to-read reference charts accompany each vegetable and offer an easy reminder of the core text. It is both a celebration of the vegetables themselves, and an essential guide for the gardener who wants to perfect the practice. Though the book feels as if it offers an exhaustive study of plant life, the text is presented in easy-to-read sections and does not fall into dry agricultural discussions.

    • Great for beginners!

      I am ordering my 2nd copy as I lost my first one and I miss it dearly! This is great for a newer gardener that wants to expand and learn how to better grow vegetables. There is so much great information, and it is geared for all types of zones, especially cooler ones. There is so much detail and you will learn so much, I find I refer back to it all the time. I love that each vegetable has it's own very detailed information so you can learn exactly what to do, when to plant, water, fertilize, etc for what ever type you are growing. He shows you how to do it yourself and gives more than one way to do things. This is great for overall exposure to everything, it is not too specific into one type of gardening. This is the first year that I am growing using his methods and I have noticed quite a difference.

    • More than I expected

      I bought this book as a gift for my mother who loves gardening. I liked it so well I have now ordered one for myself. The information covers all types of gardening container, raised bed, organic and what plants grow well with other plants. I have looked at many veggie gardening books but this one seems to cover all aspects of gardening.
