When I decided that I really wanted to make a good effort at growing a garden, I decided that I needed to know as much as I could to grow the best I could.
Now, I love the Internet, and I probably spend more time than I should on it, but to me, it's like having a library in my home and I LOVE that. Sad to say though, I haven't been to my library in years, but that's another story.
Anyway, I found a few books, that I actually did purchase and this is one of them.
"Garden Wisdom and Know How: Everything You Need to Know to Plant, Grow and Harvest"
It is from the Editors of Rodale Gardening Books, of which I get the Organic Gardening magazine. Made here in the United States.
The only thing that I don't like about the book is the print size. As you can see, the book is rather large, it contains a lot, but the print is small.
There are 10 chapters in the book and I have found a number of items in the book that have been helpful with my garden this year and I have not completed reading it.
The first chapter, Getting Started, is 74 pages long and it talks mostly about learning the zone you live in and composting. Growing your soil.
I have learned a lot from just one chapter of this book and I am reading into the next chapter now, which is "Gardening Techniques and Tricks".
Do you have a favorite, go to, gardening book?
