Advice on sowing and planting methods, plus raising plants at home

Advantages of no dig: saving time, fewer weeds and bigger crops
How to maintain control of weeds through timely mulching and hoeing
How to feed soil just once a year, for strong and healthy growth
When and how to make all the harvests, with advice on storing produce too
Charles' garden beds grow two crops a year, are cheap to establish and easy to maintain. His growing methods are easy to understand and work on small areas as well as large ones.
Charles' gardens are famous for the absence of weeds, and it's a fact that untilled soil, with a humus-rich surface, germinates fewer pioneer weed seeds. By feeding and favouring the life in your soil and working in sympathy with how nature runs things, you create a clear path to bigger harvests with less effort.
The diary explains these methods and weaves them into a timeline of action, to increase your success rate. Good timing is good gardening Book is most appropriate for zones 8/9, for other zones the dates need adapting: for example he has great feedback from zone 6 gardeners using his methods. And readers can flesh out the detail with his You Tube videos, where over half the audience is North American.
