Publisher's summary

Join the millions of people who have discovered the secret to easily starting a vegetable garden, even if you have a "black thumb".

For the first-time gardener, the thought of a failing crop can be devastating. After all your hard work and the hours spent tending (and talking!) to your plants, there's no guarantee you'll end up with a harvest.

For many people, it isn't for lack of trying. The problem is, gardening is a hobby that seems easy in practice, but can be tricky if you don't do the proper research.

Why does your climate zone matter? How does the time of year affect your plants' lives and growth cycle?

It turns out, there's more to gardening than planting the seeds and crossing your fingers-although a little luck never hurt anybody!

You can start growing delicious vegetables at home to bring to the dinner table, share with friends and family, and even use to supplement your budget.

The satisfaction you'll get from that first harvest is unmatched, especially because you know how much time and effort you put in to get there.

There will be a few mishaps and bumps in the road, but with the new information you'll gain from this audiobook, you'll be ready to handle anything, from pesky pests to winter weather!

Percy Sargeant knows from experience that every gardener experiences failure at one point or another, from newbies to experts. But what sets apart the successful gardeners from the ones who throw their hands up in frustration? The secret is simple: they don't give up.

Whether you're a total beginner to gardening or looking to broaden your horizons when it comes to regional planting, you'll uncover new insights within this guide that will make it easier than ever to plant and enjoy your harvest.
