Synopsis:

With simple solutions to ensure your gardening success, here is advice based on Bob Flowerdew's more than thirty years of experience--on mulch, feeding, watering, fertilizers, soil, and more.

You most likely already know that nurturing a planted seed is necessary for growing a healthy plant. But....

• How do you know the right amount of water to give?
• What are the best kinds of organic fertilizers?
• How can you plant a seed to set it on the right track for optimal growth?

In Sowing, Planting, Watering, and Feeding, Bob Flowerdew guides you through these and other quandaries, and provides practical advice for dodging common mistakes gardeners make when nurturing their seedlings.

Review: 'A practical guide to greater pleasure and hopefully more success in the garden, Bob proves that there is more to gardening than putting a seed in the soil and watching it grow. Drawing on 30 years of experience to guide you, step-by-step, through the process of planting and nurturing your plants, Bob is very good at keeping things simple while imparting a great deal of knowledge. He'll guide you around the common mistakes, make sure you don't dampen off your seeds, save you from over or under-watering, talk you through cutting, when is the most effective time to feed, and many other tips to give you the confidence to get going in your garden.' --The Green Parent
