Summary
Details

The Allotment - Its Preparation, Planting and Management is a 1917 guide to keeping an allotment-a small plot of land rented by an individual for growing vegetables or flowers. Whether done for pleasure or for profit, keeping an allotment can be a rewarding experience and a great hobby for green-fingered individuals. This volume offers the reader everything they need to know about the pastime, written in simple language and containing simple, timeless tips from an expert. Contents include: Preparing The Ground , Manures , How To Crop The Allotment , Intensive Cultivation , The Best Crops , Sowing Seeds , Root Crops , Peas And Beans , Winter Greens , Celery And Leek , Salads , Pests And Diseases , etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
