by Charles Dowding
From Weeds To Vegetables Easily and Quickly
read by Charles Dowding
from AUDIBLE.COM
Charles Dowding is the world’s authority on gardening without digging. It’s a way of growing using compost and mulch but saving on labouring with spade and fork. Charles has a large following on YouTube and has already published several books offering courses that teach his methods. Good Audiobooks is very pleased to present you with his first audio course, offering listeners the wealth of his years of experience. And as he reads the book himself, you can hear that expertise in his warm and encouraging voice.
He writes: “This audio course tells you more about no dig - eliminating weeds, garden layout, compost making, and using compost. There is also a history of no-dig vegetable gardening in the last 100 years. I want listeners to understand the context and the reasons why no dig has not been much valued until recently, and why it is now. There is a section on site evaluation and creating beds and paths. Then comes a whole section on clearing weeds by mulching, so that you can have clean soil and less weed pressure. More time to be creative.”
Grow an abundance of vegetables with much less effort!
The audiobook has 18 sections, covering the key methods and results of no dig, from starting with weeds to sowing and then planting straightaway - and cropping soon after.
You learn how to:
Start out with no dig
Save time and avoid unnecessary effort
Create and look after beds and paths
Recognize and reduce the different types of weeds
Understand and use different types of mulch or soil cover
Know the differences between soil, compost and its different types
The best ways to make compost
Reviews
‘Really good book. Charles has a great voice and the way it’s read it’s really easy to understand.
When you are at a lost with the hight of summer weeds or when you get your first allotment it’s a must read.
This course empowers you to show you there’s another and better way to grow.’
‘Having followed Charles Dowdings work I really enjoyed this, it was more like a one to one discussion on no dig than an audio book. Finished it in 2 days, hoping for another. ’
‘I have watched Charles Dowlings YouTube videos and have tried (successfully)his methods in some of my gardens. I am a relatively new gardener and I found this book helped build my understanding of why these methods work. This book gets pretty detailed and is full of practical advice. . . I could imagine him walking through his garden and talking to us. . . Emphasizing soil health results in healthy plants.’
Fantastic
Great book - A must read
Good introduction to no dig
A good listen during a weeding session.
