GROW A VEGETABLE GARDEN IN POTS AND CONTAINERS
A Regional Guide to Growing Vegetables and Herbs In and Around the Home
Percy Sargeant
Join the millions of people who have discovered the secret to easily starting a vegetable garden, even if you have a black thumb...
For the first-time gardener, the thought of a failing crop can be devastating. After all your hard work, and the hours spent tending (and talking!) to your plants, there's no guarantee you'll end up with a harvest.
But why is that?
For many people, it isn't for lack of trying. The problem is, gardening is a hobby that seems easy in practice but can be tricky if you don't do the proper research.
Why does your climate zone matter? How does the time of year affect your plants' lives and growth cycle?
It turns out, there's more to gardening than planting the seeds and crossing your fingers - although a little luck never hurt anybody!
You can start growing delicious vegetables at home to bring to the dinner table, share with friends and family, and even use to supplement your budget.
The satisfaction you'll get from that first harvest is unmatched, especially because you know how much time and effort you put in to get there.
Although there may be a few mishaps and bumps in the road, with the new information you'll gain from this book you'll be ready to handle anything, from pesky pests to winter weather!
In this guide, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:
- How to choose the right gardening method for your unique space and time requirements - whether you're growing in a backyard or a closet!
- The basics of soil science and how you can cultivate the perfect environment for your dream crop rotation
- Essential tips and tricks to help streamline your gardening experience, even if you've never successfully grown something before
- Ideal crops for planting all around the world, from the desert to the tropics and everything in between
- Simple rules to follow when choosing what vegetables to plant so you can maximize the enjoyment of your harvest
- Guidance on understanding growing seasons and climate zones so you can tailor your garden to your environmental needs
- How to manage insects and pests through prevention and treatment methods that won't eat up hours of your time
- The ins and outs of growing delicious herbs to supplement the vegetables you'll soon be harvesting
And much more.
Percy Sargeant knows from experience that every gardener experiences failure at one point or another, from newbies to experts. But what sets apart the successful gardeners from the ones who throw their hands up in frustration? The secret is simple: they don't give up.
Whether you're a total beginner to gardening or looking to broaden your horizons when it comes to regional planting, you'll uncover new insights within the pages that will make it easier than ever to plant and enjoy your harvest this season.
