| Synopsis: |
In Organic Gardening Charles Dowding shares the philosophy, tips and techniques that have enabled him to run a successful organic garden supplying local restaurants and shops for over 25 years.* Forget the `received wisdom' about gardening. Observe what is going on in the soil and with your plants, in your own garden and climate.* 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 worms take it in. Digging can harm soil structure, and is not helpful to plants.Based on his experience of using a system of permanent raised beds, Charles takes you through a delicious variety of fruit and vegetables: explaining what to choose, when to plant and harvest, and how best to avoid pests and diseases.With simple recipes for your fresh-picked produce, this second edition features new photographs and more tips and advice. |
