Backyard Problem Solver

Yesterday I received a book that I ordered from Amazon.com.

The book 'Backyard Problem Solver: 2,168 natural solutions for growing great grass, super shrubs, bright bulbs, perfect perennials, amazing annuals, vibrant vegetables, terrific trees, and much, much more!' by Jerry Baker contains lots of useful information for growing healthy veggies and flowers.


This book contains a chapter about caring for the garden during each month of the year. It also has recipes of Timely Tonics, concoctions of common garden and household ingredients, for all kinds of problems in the yard. I didn't know that baby shampoo and liquid dish soap 'help soften soil and remove dust, dirt, and pollution from your plants so that osmosis and photosynthesis can occur more easily. They also send bugs packing-one taste and they'll be doing the Green-Apple Shuffle to the bug bathroom quicker than you can say "Holy tomoley!".'

All praise be to Allah SWT I have to say this book is really worth the price, and it will be one of my constant companion this year.
