Discover the science behind gardening that will revolutionize your approach and make growing vegetables easier and more enjoyable than ever before...
You've done everything right. You spent hours seeding, watering, and tending to your garden only to find that you end up with a dry, weed-filled patch of dirt.
Feeling like you've wasted your time is frustrating, especially when you don't know the reason why. It might seem like everyone else is able to conjure up a lush garden in no time, leaving you feeling lost and confused.
As easy as gardening may seem in theory, most people don't know much about the science behind it.
Why, for example, are you only supposed to water certain plants in certain amounts? Why does it matter what soil you're planting in?
These questions, and others, often leave new and amateur gardeners alike scratching their heads.
You may know what to do, but you don't know why.
Understanding what's really happening in the earth that you're so carefully tending to will change the way you think about gardening forever. No longer will you be trying methods randomly, hoping to hit on the right approach.
Drawing on years of research and hours of hands-on experience, Bruce McCord knows exactly what you need to do if you want to have the flourishing garden of your dreams.
He's compiled this knowledge into a comprehensive guide that will teach you all you need to know about soil science and how to make the most of your time in the garden.
