A good, organized and informational book for the beginner gardener.  Ms Wetzel was straight forward and to the point on what is required without a lot of unnecessary documentation. Ms Wetzel breaks down the gardening process from starting seeds, layout of your garden to mulching, fertilizing and watering in simple terms which will get the job done. She also mentions to plant in intervals which is also important - so you don't have an over abundance all at once and you want to enjoy your produce as long as possible.I know, all you want to do is grow your own veggies and this will get you there easily.  It does take work and attention but certainly worth it in the end. She also points out to plant what you eat not plant what they have available at the garden centers. And, as mentioned, be sure to read the back of the seed packets for important information on sunlight, plant height & width as you do not want one plant to overcrowd another.I too agree that fresh veggies are expensive and growing your own is very rewarding.  Somehow they seem to taste better if you have grown them yourself.
