DOWNLOAD EBOOKUnlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNutrients in animal wastes from dairy operations can leach into surface water, causing eutrophication. This research aims to determine if compost can replace peat moss in greenhouse substrates. Bedding plants were grown in five mixes. 1) 100% compost, 2) 50% compost, 3) 50% peat moss, 4) 25% compost; 25% peat moss and 5) 100% peat moss. The plants were grown to marketable size and rated for marketability. They were dried, weighed and analyzed for nitrogen and phosphorus. Plants grown in mixes including compost had weights, and nutrient levels that were equal to or higher than those grown in peat moss. Conclusion: compost is a suitable substitute for peat moss in greenhouse substrates.
