Request for Recommendations: Book on Vegetables
A gardening newbie, I'm just in the process of digging a vegetable
patch, and since my land is pretty much pure clay, I've so far been concentrating on finding out about (and applying) initial soil conditioning. Now that the compost is fermenting nicely (lots of advice taken from this ng, thank you all), and the sharp sand is on order, I need to start thinking about crops. Whilst there's a wealth of info available here and at other online resources, I wonder if there is a good sensible book which urglers would recommend for the vegetable gardener? A trawl through historic posts led me to past discussions on the RHS books, but these were geared towards availability rather than content, and it seems the RHS books may cover a wider subject area than I need. I already have one book in mind, but in an attempt not to lead the discussion, will hold back from mentioning it just now (tell you later, honest!) I'd like to be sure I'm not missing anything better :-) So, is there a good standard text I should buy before I set to in February? --Neil. -- Neil Trotter, Canewdon, UK Edit email address to reply |
