Great advice and nicely designed book
I follow the authors YouTube channel, so figured the book would be full of great info too. I was right. The book strikes a perfect balance between being scientific and detailed, whilst also being fun and creative. Itโs a great book for a quick ten minute read on a specific subject or for a quick fix of inspiration. But equally great to read in depth for more detailed information. Finally, the book is very well put together - great photography and nicely payed out design. Highly recommend.

Great complete book that will show you many different approaches to gardening
This book will appeal to many people, no matter if you have a large garden, balcony or just your window still to put your plants up. It will make you think about all the possibilities, some that you might have thought of before, and some new ones too. Well written and nice full colour pictures made it so that I read it almost in one go. If you're (just like me) looking for the metric conversions, there is a handy note in the back of the book.

Brilliant book for space challenged gardeners
I recently found the author on YouTube. Love his videos, but as a book tutorial junkie couldn't resist finding out about the book after seeing how many people bought it after watching. Delivery was 1 to 2 months so chose this seller. It's easy to understand, he's very relatable sharing his gardening journey, and big on low budget materials and recycling, which is a refreshing change. There is a slight distancing with the translation from US to UK, but there are lots of conversion charts, and if you aren't old like me and work in inches and cm, easily converted on Google. Wonderful book! Seller was quick and would definitely use them again. Delighted all round.

This book is awesome.
Full of interesting, good ideas, weed control, pest control, what to grow and when, harvesting tips, aqauponics ideas. Nice clear photos, has a nice feel to it. Well worth the money and if like me you have a small garden mainly put over to slabs, this book will certainly help to get the homegrown foods onto my plate.

Geht einen Schritt weiter
Ich bin von dem Buch total begeistert. Es geht auf jeden Fall einen Schritt weiter als andere Bรผcher und erklรคrt auch die Hintergrรผnde schรถn. Dabei wird zum Beispiel auf Bodenqualitรคt und Beschaffenheit, wie Photosynthese funktioniert und รคhnliches anschaulich und genau so Tief eingegangen, wie es hilfreich ist. Jetzt kann der Frรผhling kommen!

Excellent overall guide
I am moving to a flat with the potential of a roof top garden which is why this book looked like one of the ideal starting points other than what I could look up on-line. It is a great reference book with a variety of methods for growing and inspiration for both indoor and outdoor gardening. I doubt I will do much indoors as a start for plants to move outside, but it is good to have this just in case! Really clear and easy instructions with good illustrations so I would recommend this book to anyone, whether you are a neophyte or have some past experience as a gardener.
