Best gardening book ever!

This is the best step-by-step gardening book I have ever read. It is easy to follow and almost guarantees success. I can't wait to harvest!


Great Gardening Book!

I really enjoyed this book. It makes gardening super simple. Easy to read book with great pictures to help you set up your first square foot garden. I made three 4X4 square foot gardens and they look great! I highly recommend this book if you are interested in square foot gardening.


The new Square Foot Gardening

This soft-back book has helped get me out in the garden. It is well-organized, gives tables of how many seeds go in each square, and has a certain humorous approach that makes the reading far from dry. Following these directions, we spent about $200 to put two frames in (32 squares), planted according to directions, and I've got 2-inch tall seedlings of beans, peas, corn, watermelon and some herbs. Quite satisfied with the book and the price of it.

Great!

This book is great! It makes gardening seem easy ... I know it isn't perfect and small adjustments will need to be made, but suddenly it seems doable!

I recommend the book for anyone!








Brilliant!

Square Foot Gardening is a brilliant concept. The book is a little wordy and could be condensed down - but Mel wants to make it exceptionally clear that this is the EASY way to garden.


Do you know what the best feature is in All New Square Foot Gardening?


Sure, there are ten new features in this all-new, updated book. Sure, it's even simpler than it was before. Of course, you don't have to worry about fertilizer or poor soil ever again because you'll be growing above the ground.


But, the best feature is that anyone, anywhere can enjoy a Square Foot garden. Children, adults with limited mobility, even complete novices can achieve spectacular results.


But, let's get back to the ten improvements. You're going to love them.

 

1)      New Location - Move your garden closer to your house by eliminating single-row gardening. Square Foot Garden needs just twenty percent of the space of a traditional garden.

2)      New Direction - Locate your garden on top of existing soil. Forget about pH soil tests, double-digging (who enjoys that?), or the never-ending soil improvements.

3)      New Soil - The new "Mel's Mix" is the perfect growing mix. Why, we even give you the recipe. Best of all, you can even buy the different types of compost needed.

4)      New Depth - You only need to prepare a SFG box to a depth of 6 inches! It's true--the majority of plants develop just fine when grown at this depth.

5)      No Fertilizer - The all new SFG does not need any fertilizer-ever! If you start with the perfect soil mix, then you don't need to add fertilizer.

6)      New Boxes - The new method uses bottomless boxes placed aboveground. We show you how to build your own (with step-by-step photos).

7)      New Aisles - The ideal gardening aisle width is about three to four feet. That makes it even easier to kneel, work, and harvest.

8)      New Grids - Prominent and permanent grids added to your SFG box help you visualize the planting squares and know how to space for maximum harvest.

9)      New Seed Saving Idea - The old-fashioned way advocates planting many seeds and then thinning the extras (that means pulling them up). The new method means planting a pinch- literally two or three seeds--per planting hole.

10)  Tabletop Gardens - The new boxes are so much smaller and lighter (only 6 inches of soil, remember?), you can add a plywood bottom to make them portable.

 

Of course, that's not all. We've also included simple, easy-to-follow instructions using lots of photos and illustrations. You're going to love it!
