With the weather warming up and the gardening season around the corner, I am sure many of us are excited to start planting! Colourful, detailed gardening books are always an inspiration to get us started.
I checked out four must have gardening books: The 10-Minute Gardener, Houseplant Propagation, Organic Vegetable Gardening, and Square Food Gardening. If you live in Canada or USA, you can win all four of these books, see details below.
The 10-Minute Gardener by CaliKim gives time saving tactics to be more efficient and grow food in less time. The author has separated the chapters by things we can do in 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 8 minutes, 10 minutes, and 30 minutes. These five chapters are separated by season. I found this book is easy to go through with lots of useful tips and ideas.
Square Foot Gardening, the fourth edition, is a tried and tested idea by many gardeners including myself. It helps to grow, manage, and maintain a garden in a small space easily.
This SFG method allows home gardeners to grow more food in less space. The one foot square grids allow for an efficient system. Helps control weed, conserve water, use fewer seeds, growing what you want to eat, rotating crops, eliminating fertilizers, saving time and energy weeding, tiling, and watering large areas. It also makes the garden have an aesthetically pleasing landscape. This is a useful book for any gardener.
Organic Vegetable Garden has four sections that gives information about the history of gardening, planning, techniques, and plant profile. I found the plant profile section to be useful as it gives details about common vegetables that we can grow at home.
The Ultimate Guide to Houseplant Prorogation is an interesting book that teaches how to propagate houseplants easily. If you know the simple methods mentioned in this book, it would be fun to propagate many houseplants from one plant and give as gifts to friends and family.
