    About this ebook

    GROWING VEGETABLES IS DIFFICULT, DIRTY, HARD WORK, AND EXPENSIVE - NOT ANY MORE IT'S NOT!!

    BY GROWING VEGETABLES IN STRAW YOU REMOVE THE HARD LABOUR (NO MORE WEEDING OR DIGGING OR CRAWLING ON THE GROUND) THERE IS NO DIGGING AROUND IN DIRT, THE TECHNIQUE IS VERY SIMPLE TO APPLY, AND BALES OF STRAW ARE CHEAPER THAN PURCHASING COMPOST!

    As someone who is excited about growing my own food, whilst at the same time trying to maximise my results within a limited budget; SBG offers a solution
    that is immensly appealing.
    A great idea for introducing vegetable gardening to children as it is clean (no cat poo especially!), and an ideal height for kids. The fact is that you can grow a huge range of produce with very little effort & expense by simply utilising straw.
    No more heavy digging or struggling against weeds & poor soil, even bugs are not as much of a problem!

    Growing vegetables in Straw is a concept that has a 'growing' appeal to many - and for good reason, as it is Possibly the most perfect example of no-dig vegetable gardening. This is indeed not surprising when you consider that it is possibly the only one amongst the contenders of Raised Bed Gardening,
    Square Foot Gardening, and Container Gardening that truly offers planting with minimal use of even a hand-trowel!

    Like to know more? Here is a brief outline of this books contents...
    1: A full introduction to growing veggies in straw technique, explaining in detail why exactly you should consider this system for growing your own healthy vegetables.

    2: Easy to follow instructions on exactly how to lay out your Straw bundles, including where to place them, how to prepare them for growing your vegetables, and how to plant the veggies themselves.

    3: Comprehensive pictures and illustrations. You will find over 20 pictures and  illustrations included throughout this book.

    4: Planting tips and techniques for getting the best out of your SBG efforts,
    including how to keep destructive insects at bay, and how to create your own 'cold frame' from your straw growing system.

    5: Details on how to grow ten of the most popular vegetables, including planting and growing conditions needed to get the best results.

    Growing Vegetables in Straw is a system for growing vegetables without the heavy digging and labour involved with  traditional gardening systems - maybe it's time for you to check it out and see what the fuss is all about!
