Description

|
|
|
Now that more people are recognizing the need for nutritious, local, sustainable food, while supermarket options remain unattractive or prohibitively expensive, the homegrown option is becoming more popular. Writing for urban dwellers without ready access to fertile land, as well as yard owners who wish to maximize their harvest of fresh, healthy produce, longtime organic gardener and test grower D.J. Herda offers this illustrated guide to growing fruits and vegetables in pots. He explains in detail how to choose the best fruits and vegetables for container gardening; select the right container size and location; optimize soil composition and nutrients; manage light, water, and humidity; eliminate pests and plant diseases naturally, and extend your harvest season.
