- Techniques and tips to get the most out of each crop, from how to grow epic-size pumpkins to whether it’s worth thinning beetroot.
- Troubleshooting tips for pest problems: ways to work with wildlife rather than against it and providing an alternative viewpoint on traditional problems, such as eating the weeds as well!
- How to make the most of your fruit and vegetable harvest, with information on the best time to pick produce and how to preserve it.
