About this product

Product Information

Many people would love to enjoy eating super-fresh homegrown produce but don't know how. Starting with what varieties to plant through how to tend their garden and when and how to harvest the fruits of their labors, 3-Step Vegetable Gardening is the complete vegetable gardening system for busy people. The book breaks things down into three simple steps: sow, grow, and harvest. Readers will learn how to set their garden; how to install raised beds and a watering system; and why the time spent getting ready to sow will be repaid many times over during the summer. They will find out how to grow, learning all about mulches and weed covers, garden sites, and planting plans. Then day by day through the growing season, they will see how to make their garden grow. And finally they'll learn how to tell when it's time to harvest and how to store vegetables they can't eat right away. By spending growing their own vegetables, readers will enjoy crops harvested at the peak of perfection, bringing food from garden to table in minutes flat. And they'll be eating the freshest home-grown vegetables, herbs, and fruit available instead of the under ripe or limp, sickly offerings so often found in supermarkets.

Very Simple and a Great Gardening book!
I originally checked this book out of the library and kept it as long as I could w/renewing it over and over again. I had to have it! It's great for beginners and I mean THE beginning basic gardening book and gives ppl who've been gardening for a while, some simple ideas and goes over things in a concise form and fashion. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this book if I were you. It's just a great little book (well, not so little).
