g'day lilipili,

at the end of the day i'd suggest you spend yor money on actual
infrastructure in your garden ie.,. mulch hay whatever.

you could go to the lending library and borrow mollesons "intro to pc"
it's all common sense stuff, and easy to follow. or check out your
local TAFE they often have 2 day intro courses at the least cost,
again you'll see there is no mystique it is all basic and common sense
stuff.

you never know you may even find some help on our site?

thanks for the advice :-), but i don't have a garden :-(, land is an
expensive luxury so i grow everything on my window sills. i want to
learn how to grow things optimally in urban spaces. i also want to
help others do it... possibly make a living out of it, so will need a
qualification. Plus, it might make a nice holiday :-) out of the
concrete jungle.

These people seem to have an urban permaculture component in their course

A Google for "urban permaculture" site:au may give you some more ideas
