The Postage Stamp Vegetable Garden
Author: Karen NewcombPublisher: Ten Speed Press
ISBN: 1607746840
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
One of the best books for beginning and experienced vegetable gardeners, this clear, straightforward, easy-to-read gardening bestseller (over 500,000 copies sold) uses organic, biodynamic methods to produce large amounts of vegetables in very small spaces. To accommodate today's lifestyles, a garden needs to fit easily into a very small plot, take as little time as possible to maintain, require a minimum amount of water, and still produce prolifically. That's exactly what a postage stamp garden does. Postage stamp gardens are as little as 4 by 4 feet, and, after the initial soil preparation, they require very little extra work to produce a tremendous amount of vegetables--for instance, a 5-by-5-foot bed will produce a minimum of 200 pounds of vegetables. When first published 40 years ago, the postage stamp techniques, including closely planted beds rather than rows, vines and trailing plants grown vertically to free up space, and intercropping, were groundbreaking. Revised for an all new generation of gardeners, this edition includes brand new information on the variety of heirloom vegetables available today and how to grow them the postage stamp way. Now, in an ever busier world, the postage stamp intensive gardening method continues to be invaluable for gardeners who wish to weed, water, and work a whole lot less yet produce so much more.
Recognizing and Controlling Nematode Damage on Some Crops Grown in Jamaica
Author: Dave George HuttonPublisher: Canoe Press (IL)
ISBN: 9768125004
Category : Agricultural pests
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Plant parasitic nematodes! Over 4,000 species are found all over the world. They attack and damage virtually every crop cultivated by man or plants growing naturally and can cause serious problems in home gardens and in cultivations. Most home gardeners or agriculturalists know little or nothing about them since they are not seen; they have been called "the hidden enemy", and the damage is not easy to diagnose, except by specialists. This book gives facts related to the parasitic activities of nematodes, tells how symptoms of their presence and damage can be recognized and offers recommendations for their control. It is written for the farmer and the home gardener and also for the researcher, the extension officer and the student; in fact, for any person with an interest in crop agriculture in Jamaica and in the wider Caribbean. There are 13 pages illustrating damage symptoms or control methods and tabular reference to specific damage symptoms and control recommendations for over 80 economic crops.
