Ripe, tasty and packed with goodness - vegetables grown in your own garden are far superior to any bought in shops. Full of sweetness and vitamins, they can be picked at their peak: unlike many commercially grown vegetables, they don't have to be harvested while still green, then gas-ripened. As well as covering general techniques, this book contains detailed growing instructions for more than 50 vegetables, and includes information on year-round planting for a varied and continuous supply of vegetables. In addition, there are sections on hydroponics, an increasingly popular growing method, and container gardening, for people who lack space.
