Vegetable Growing - Month by Month Guide by John Harrison
Whatever the size of your garden you can still grow your own vegetables and this down-to-earth 256 page paperback book takes you through the vegetable gardening year month by month.
Synopsis

• Whatever the size of your garden or allotment, you can grow your own vegetables.
• Even if you only have a balcony or a small paved area outside your kitchen, you can grow more than you ever thought possible in pots, containers and raised beds.
• Experienced vegetable grower, John Harrison takes you through the entire vegetable year so that, for all the main vegetables, you'll know exactly when you should sow your seeds, dig your plot and harvest your crops.
• Choose the most appropriate vegetables for your particular soil and select the right position so that they flourish.
• Discover how to make your own compost and organic fertilisers, as well as the best methods of controlling pests.
• Find out how to extend the season by buying or building your own cloches and cold frames.
• Put an end to worries that your shop-bought vegetables contain chemical residues or to concerns about the air miles such vegetables have flown en route to your table!

Also what's been said about 'Vegetable Growing Month by Month' Guide

"Having just received John Harrisons book On Vegetable Growing Month by Month, I have to say that it’s definitely going to be a well thumbed volume, particularly by those who want to grow vegetables for the first time.  

Forget about any glossy pictures, what’s in this book is solid words of advice, written in plain to understand English from a grower who’s had frustrating years of experience behind him in trying to grow nutritious vegetables, whilst at the same time running a business and raising a family. 

Everyone will benefit from this book and I found the glossary at the back, which explains gardening terminology in a way that everyone will understand, to be extremely useful. It will certainly have a place on my extensive gardening book shelf."
