Читать книгу Grow Your Own Drugs: A Year With James Wong - James Wong - Страница 8

I’ve never been a slave to strict horticultural rules & regulations. That said, the textbooks do have some good advice; the most important point to note is that you should spend a little time in getting to know your site. To put it simply, if you understand the growing conditions of your site and pick your plants accordingly, gardening can be transformed. A never-ending labour and struggle against nature becomes a simple matter of a splash of water now and again as you pop out to forage in the flower border. In this section, I outline how to determine the specific conditions of your own site, be it rolling estate or window box, and show you how to work with, not against, your local conditions to get the best possible results.
