Organic Gardening: Diagnose and Solve Plant Problems Naturally

Gardening comes with its challenges, and knowing how to address plant issues organically can make all the difference. David Deardorff and Katherine Wadsworth, co-authors of What's Wrong with My Plant? and What's Wrong with My Vegetable Garden?, offer invaluable insights into diagnosing and solving plant problems using organic solutions.

Their book What's Wrong with My Plant? provides a comprehensive diagnostic system designed to help gardeners identify and address plant issues efficiently. David Deardorff, a plant pathologist and botanist, created this system based on years of answering questions like, "Is the plant too wet? Too dry?" By systematically guiding readers through common plant problems, the book empowers gardeners to make informed decisions.

For vegetable gardeners, What's Wrong with My Vegetable Garden? serves as a complete guide to growing healthy vegetables organically. It includes detailed photos and solutions for common issues, ensuring that your garden thrives without the use of harmful chemicals.

David and Katherine's commitment to organic gardening stems from personal experience. David, a former rose breeder, once suffered from pesticide poisoning and has been an advocate for organic gardening ever since. As Katherine highlights, organic gardening is not only beneficial for the gardener but also for the planet.

With these books as a resource, you can diagnose plant problems and implement organic solutions that promote a healthy, sustainable garden. Grow organic for life!
