Have you tried square foot gardening, and ran into some problems that you did not know the answer to? Or are you interested in putting in a square foot garden? Although I don't employ all of the parts of square foot gardening, I have known the basics of it. I have never actually put in a square foot garden. I received "Square Foot Gardening Answer Book" to review, and have actually learned a lot about how it is supposed to be done. There was a fun idea he mentioned in there about growing a square foot garden box with a bottom on it, then it is movable to where ever you want to bring it: such as to your grandmothers house as a gift or as a very unique wedding gift that keeps on giving. Both of those ideas stuck with me- what a great idea!In this book he goes through and answers many commonly asked questions as well as questions not so frequently asked. There are questions he answers like: How much yield will I get from one box? and I'm not very handy. What is the easiest way to build a basic 4 x 4 box? One of the ideas he really puts across is that it is essential to have a sturdy grid in your square foot garden. He covers how to grow tomatoes, zucchini and watermelon in your square foot garden. This is a great book for anyone growing or wanting to grow a square foot garden. I have even gotten many great ideas to try in my garden this year, and I might even build a few square foot gardens to try out!
Happy Gardening!
