How to Start A Garden
Planting A Garden can be easier and more enjoyable with these gardening tips
Planting a garden, whether it is a vegetable plot or a flower bed, is an adventure where your creativity and patience are put to the test! You are directly responsible for the beautiful rose blooms or the delicious tomatoes that develop in this section of the land. Therefore to have the most success you need to determine where you plant!
The location of the garden should be determined by several factors: sunlight, soil conditions, water and wind exposure. Take notes on when this area of the yard is exposed to sunshine. This can determine which plants will thrive there. Test your soil to see if conditioners are needed to bring it up to optimum growing conditions. Pay attention to whether water collects in this section of the lawn. Some plants do well in soggy locations, but most need well-drained soil. Strong winds can dry out soil and plants, so try to locate the plot out of direct winds. Once you have determined where you will create your garden masterpiece you are ready to select plants!
Choose plants that will grow in your zone. Although you might have your heart set on a certain flower or vegetable, if your climate or garden location won’t support this choice, you will inevitably be disappointed. To avoid this, choose plants that are meant for your growing zone (ideally native plants), and disease-resistant and drought tolerant plants. Ask the employee at the nursery for assistance in selecting these. Be aware of the future size of each plant. A tree planted near a house will eventually provide shade, but it could also be a hazard during storms.
Plan out what flowering plants you would like for the seasons. Most perennials only bloom for a short time, so by mixing in some annuals there will be constant color in your garden. By having seasonal color you can change the look of your garden and create excitement and personality!
Now that you have your garden location selected and your plants purchased, you are ready to start digging! What tools are required to get things started? These include:
Rake: for seasonal cleanups and spreading/leveling soil
Trowel: for transplanting and weeding
Shovel: for digging, scooping, spreading compost and planting
Hoe: for chopping weeds and tilling soils
Pruners: for clipping flowers and pruning trees
Garden Gloves: for protecting your hands from blisters and dirt
Garden Hose: invest in a top-of-the-line hose that will resist kinking, is flexible and coils easily. Invest in high quality tools. They will last longer and are more durable than their cheaper counterparts.
Have fun starting a garden. Don’t try to create a masterpiece your first year-build up to it. Select a few choice plants that are more expensive. The rest can be less expensive, smaller complementary plants to round out your garden. Gardening is our nation’s number one leisure activity so go out and have a good time in your own piece of earth!

Guerrilla Gardening $19.95 The term "guerrilla" may bring to mind a small band of armed soldiers, moving in the dead of night on a stealth mission. In the case of guerrilla gardening, the soldiers are planters, the weapons are shovels, and the mission is to transform an abandoned lot into a thing of beauty. Once an environmentalist's nonviolent direct action for inner-city renewal, this movement is spreading to all types of people in cities around the world. These modern-day Johnny Appleseeds perform random acts of gardening, often without permission. Typical targets are vacant lots, railway land, underused public squares, and back alleys. The concept is simple, whimsical, and has the cheeky appeal of being a not-quite-legal call to action. Dig in some soil, plant a few seeds, or mend a sagging fence-one good deed inspiring another, with win-win benefits all around. Guerrilla Gardening outlines the power-to-the-people campaign for greening our cities. |

Gardening At Night $4.16 Gardening at Night follows the unfolding of a young girl’s life through a childhood filled with silences, through adolescence and young womanhood. It is about how much people are the total of their longings, how high drama can also be low comedy. It probes how much of the old century a girl should take with her into the new one, and examines the merging of families in the Eighties and their emerging into the florescence of the Nineties and beyond. It is especially the story of a girl’s escape from a ghost town. The South African mining town of Kimberley was created over a hundred years ago when men with buckets scraped out the insides of the earth like a thousand black dentists. Now it is a place where the only tales are those of leaving. ‘Gardening at Night is feisty, and funky, and funny. And even in moments of bleakness and shock Diane Awerbuck’s brand of wry humour turns this unusual and amazing first novel into a remarkable reading adventure. This is a South Africa the international reader has not yet seen: the wood of smallness and ordinariness and quirkiness of everyday life hidden behind the trees of politics. Andr- Brink |

Gardening Eden $9.99 Before the snake, the apple, and the Ten Commandments, God created a garden… “Spiritual environmentalism” did not start out as an oxymoron–it was an invitation. Yet today, many believe God’s first job description for humankind has been replaced by other “worthier pursuits”. Why has this simple instruction become so controversial? How does one sort through all the mixed messages? Is changing our lives to save the world really our responsibility–or even possible? Gardening Eden invites you to consider a new, spiritual perspective to practical environmentalism. The question is not whether our souls find expression and inspiration in our incredible planet, but how best to preserve that fundamental connection. Green living is no longer a fad–simple lifestyle solutions are now available to everyone. Discover creation care as an act of worship and a call to deeper harmony with our Creator, our fellow gardeners, and our living Earth. Gardening Eden is the primer in how this shift will transform not only our world, but your very soul. From the Trade Paperback edition. |

Gardening in Eden $6.99 “Though an old man,” Thomas Jefferson wrote at Monticello, “I am but a young gardener.” Every gardener is. In Gardening in Eden, we enter Arthur Vanderbilt’s small enchanted world of the garden, where the old wooden trestle tables of a roadside nursery are covered in crazy quilts of spring color, where a catbird comes to eat raisins from one’s hand, and a chipmunk demands a daily ration of salted cocktail nuts. We feel the oppressiveness of endless winter days, the magic of an old-fashioned snow day, the heady, healing qualities of wandering through a greenhouse on a frozen February afternoon, the restlessness of a gardener waiting for spring. With a sense of wonder and humor on each page, Arthur Vanderbilt takes us along with him to discover that for those who wait, watch, and labor in the garden, it’s all happening right outside our windows. |

Soilless Gardening $38.48 SOILLESS GARDENING by W. F. GERICKE PUTNAM LONDON 42 Great Russell Street, W. C. I. THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO MY W1FK WHOSE UNFALTERING FAITH IN THE ULTIMATE REALIZATION OF CROP PRO DUCTION WITHOUT SOIL WAS A GREAT HELP IN ESTABLISHING HYDROPONICS. HYDROPONICS was really the second name to be applied to the science of soilless gardening. The first was aquicul ture, chosen because of its analogy to agriculture. Later it was found that this word had already been used in another connection and so could not be employed again. Hydro ponics was then selected because of its parallel relationship with geoponics, the Greek word meaning earth working, or, literally, agriculture. Hydroponics can now be carried on without restriction by anyone who desires to do so. But scientific research on the sub ject must be safeguarded, the public must be protected from exploitation, and business interests must assume the responsi bility for the development of the science. My own wishes are that research and educational institutions shall profit from the growth of hydroponics, that I shall be free to conduct research and teach the new subject, without being responsible for busi ness development except in an advisory capacity where this is needed. Those private individuals who gave of their private funds to test the validity of new ideas, and who provided the laboratory of practice wherein the dross of impracticability was removed from the hydroponic theory, have earned the utmost considera tion. They deserve the right to be consulted before any publi cation is made of results obtained in their plants. It is a pleasure to acknowledge here the cooperation and aid given the development of hydroponics by theestablishment of plants by Vetterle and Reinelt, Frank L. Lyons and E. W. Brundin, the California Packing Corporation, George O. Brehm, Martha Jane Dawson, Carl Gericke, Max B. Miller, Donald French, Pan American Airways, Inc., and E. O. Freund. vii viii Preface I am indebted to the Parafline Companies, Inc., for providing the asphalt-paper basins to California Redwood Association for the wooden basins to Pacific Portland Cement for the con crete basins. These were donated to me for experimental pur poses, and each material was the first of its kind used for soilless crop production. Nurseries provided planting stock. I am indebted to Vet terle and Reinelt, George C. Rocding, John Armstrong, and Jan de Graaf for their encouragement to hydroponics with lib eral donations of materials. The good wishes of a host of scientists who have followed the development since its first announcement in 1929 have been a great inspiration, and among these I especially wish to mention Dr. B. E. Livingston. W. F. GKRICKE. CHAPTER PAGE PREFACE vii 1.
