Trowel and Error does for the garden what Heloise, the Queen of Clean, does for the household. You'll learn how to use over 700 environmentally friendly, yet dead-on remedies, tips, short-cuts and cure-alls like: Cure plant viruses with spoiled milk. Steep a natural and effective insecticide out of fresh basil. Place flat stones under squash or melons to hasten ripening. Sprinkle baby powder over seedlings to discourage rabbits. The book is indexed by problem, plant, pest, and solution, and includes a list of tools and common household items -- borax, cornmeal, vinegar-- that completes the gardener's arsenal. From urging the reader to take an occasional shower with the houseplants, to giving all-natural gardenside first aid, Trowel and Error is a direct line to the kind of practical wisdom that will benefit every gardener, whether beginner or experienced. Paperback. 336 pages.
