Charles Dowding (the guru of no-dig gardening) shares his organic, no-dig approach to soil and plants, revealing the range of techniques that enable him to grow healthy, vibrant crops while, with sustainability in mind, maintaining healthy soil. His success is based on these key principles:
• No-dig
•Spread organic matter on the soil surface
•Clean & improve the soil in the first 3-12 months
• Weed every 10 days or so, when weeds are small.
By using a system of permanent, slightly raised beds, Charles shows how to grow a delicious variety of fruit and vegetables organically: what to choose; when to sow, plant and harvest; and how best to avoid pests and diseases.
