Paperback. Condition: Good. "The Prairie Gardener guides offer tips on planning, planting and growing gardens, and troubleshooting pests and diseases." --Calgary Herald Your guide to trouble-shooting weeds, pests, diseases, moulds, critters, and other common prairie gardener's problems in this second title in the Guides for the Prairie Gardener series. Whether you're an experienced prairie gardener or have just a few weeks under your belt, chances are you've come to know at least a couple of pesky insects, moulds, or much larger lurkers on a first-name basis. But what to do about these interlopers who can seem hell-bent on ruining your hard work? Lifelong gardeners Janet and Sheryl are here to help. In this second installment in the Guides for the Prairie Gardener series, the authors tackle the full range of suspects, including weeds, insects, microorganisms, rodents, birds, deer and even other people's pets. Premised on a respect for the natural world and using an integrated pest management approach, they'll show you how to identify the culprit and how to deter it, while respecting the broader environment. Should I use landscape fabric? Does vinegar work? What do I do about tent caterpillars? Why are my potatoes scabby? Why does it look like my cabbages have been attacked by miniature buckshot? And the recurring What is this thing?! Janet and Sheryl take your most pressing questions in this Q&A-style resource on all the prairie gardener's most common pests, including thistle, dandelion, crabgrass, slugs, aphids, beetles, moths, mildew, fungus, rust, deer, rabbits, and porcupines. With elegance and a sense of humour, their solutions reveal their fascination with the natural world and belief in your ability to garden well in its midst.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In their thirteenth book, experienced gardeners and authors Janet Melrose and Sheryl Normandeau share their wisdom on growing veggies, herbs, fruits, and more indoors in our homes, bringing the greens inside and growing food all year. Whether plagued by a short growing season or a lack of outdoor space, or inspired by a love of edible greens, there are a dozen reasons to bring the garden indoors. Plants outside their natural habitat need a totally different kind of tender love and care, though, and that?s especially true of voracious sun-drinkers like veggies, fruits, and herbs. In their signature accessible question-and-answer style, Janet and Sheryl explain the differences between standard houseplants and edible plants and cover everything you need to know to have a thriving garden right inside your home. After a strong foundational chapter in essentials like natural and artificial light, temperature, tools, and growing medium, you?ll be fully equipped to learn about techniques like hydroponics, aquaponics, vertical growing, and grow tents. If you?re daydreaming about what you can grow for the dinner table, dive into the nitty gritty of each type of gardening with chapters on microgreens, veggies and root veggies, herbs and spices, and fruits. After the harvest, learn about making more with less by growing from kitchen scraps. Of course, Janet and Sheryl also answer all your questions about what happens when things go wrong and help you tackle pests and mould, brighten up leggy plants and less-than-abundant harvests, and troubleshoot more complex growing systems. Full of valuable tips and tricks and heartening enthusiasm, The Indoor Garden is the perfect companion for first-time and experienced indoor gardeners alike.…
