This is a book for the new and moderate gardeners that want to begin taking their cultivation seriously so that they can micromanage their crops and get the most out of each harvest. In the first chapter, we will go over everything we will be talking about in the book and explain how each section factors in to how you can determine when the correct time is to put your plants into the soil. We'll go over such things as: Nutrient Dependency Seasons pH Dependency Sun Dependency These will be brief overviews of each section before getting into each of the chapters that explain how they effect your planting time and show you the tools to determine when it is the correct time for you to put your plants into the soil. The second chapter will go over the difference between Seasons, how they correlate to temperatures, and how the temperature ultimately determines the range of time a plant should be planted. The third chapter we'll cover will go over nutrient dependency and explain the different parts of the soil that make a plant grow. In this chapter, we'll go over the different soil types and show you the type of soils you should go after, which can change by way of the weather and season. The last chapter will go over pH and in this chapter, we will go over: The mathematics behind pH so that you know what it actually means. Who created the mathematics to solve for pH. Why pH is so important for the soil. Some common plants that can grow in specific ranges of pH. We go over all the bases so that you can be sure that you will know when the correct time is to plant your plants. While most books hand you a chart with temperatures and dates, we take a more direct approach so that you know how people made that chart rather than need to locate a graph every time you need to go put a plant in the ground.

Download or read book The Gardener s Calendar for South Carolina Georgia and North Carolina written by Robert Squibb and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2008-03-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Squibb first published his Gardener's Calendar in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1787--a time when what came to the table had come from the backyard, and households that wished to eat well (or perhaps to eat at all) had to cultivate "garlick," shallots, coriander, and "small sallading," as well as "spinage," "cellery," "plumbs," and "pease" in their kitchen gardens. Squibb's planting guide was welcomed by eighteenth-century gardeners; for the first time they had professional counsel about specific plants that would thrive in the region and a month-by-month guide to the nurturing of their fruits and vegetables. No longer need they guess at the effects of the climate lag between England and Georgia or Carolina as they had done while using British calendars. This edition follows closely the format of the 1787 volume, retaining eighteenth-century spelling, punctuation, and ornament. Though nearly two centuries have passed, this classic of southern gardening remains a delightfully instructive planting guide.
