Ref GC0042: Grow Your Own Veg by Carol Klein (2010)

Picture
You can't beat just-dug carrots and crunch crisp lettuce for taste and wholesome nutrition.  In Grow Your Own Veg, Royal Horticultural Society experts reveal the skills you need to nurture 40 different vegetables from plot to plate.

With her usual energy and enthusiasm, Carol Klein offers green-fingered advice for growing all your appetizing favourites plus less familiar crops such as rocket, garlic and Florence fennel.  Her approach is environmentally friendly and easy, giving all the help you need to succeed.

Beginners and experienced gardeners will be inspired by the RHS wisdom that makes this an indispensable vegetable reference for every gardener's bookshelf.

Ref GC0045: Organic Gardening - The natural no-dig way by Charles Dowding (2008)

Picture
In Organic Gardening, Charles Dowding share the philosophy, tips and technique which have enabled him to run a successful organic garden supplying local restaurants and shops for over 25 years.

Forget the rules: "received wisdom" about gardening is surprisingly inaccurate.  understand better what is going on in the soil and with your plants, in your own garden and climate, and work out your own methods instead.

Respect and encourage life as much as you can, chiefly by spreading good compost or manure.

There is no need to dig in compost and manure - just spread it on top and let works take it in.  Digging can harm soil structure, and is not helpful to plants.

You can reduce weeding to a little hand-weeding or hoeing every ten days.
