crafts and hobbies,education and reference,home and garden,gardening,gardening and landscaping,reference,vegetables, Mutt and Jeff, Bert and Ernie, Click and Clack, and now, for the would-be kitchen gardener, Tom and Marty! If dumbed-down straight guy/funny man humor tickles your fancy, you are sure to love Tom and Marty's The 20-Minute Vegetable Gardener. There are 10 or so basic principles for 20-minute vegetable gardening. They range from "grow high impact crops such as hot peppers or asparagus" to "choose crops according to local conditions," and from "nurture soil" to "learn how to water." There are chapters on bean sprouts, salad greens, cabbage-family plants, root crops, herbs, and tomatoes. Each chapter begins along lines like these: "Having finished the installation of his garden bed, Marty was hot to start planting. He was dreaming, he said, of the most extraordinary salads. That made Tom anxious. Marty always makes Tom anxious, but in this case, Tom had reason." Punch line: it was too late in spring to plant salad greens, according to Tom. This leads to brief discussions of how to plan a planting calendar, how to select seedlings at a nursery, how to care for seed, and several good salad crops. The chapter discussion is followed by "20-Minute Projects," such as planting lettuces in a decorative way, and, in the case of chapter 4, "The Salad Course," planting salad fixings in window boxes. A novice gardener would have to slog through the entire book to have any sense of what to do. There is nothing unique or particularly noteworthy in the text; nothing that isn't.

The 20-Minute Vegetable Gardener: Gourmet Gardening for the Rest of Us Christopher, Thomas / Christopher, Tom / Asher, Marty, Few tastes are more satisfying than that of fresh, delicious food you've grown yourself. In their new book, the authors of The 20-Minute Gardener bring their time-saving, sanity-saving philosophy into the kitchen. The rules are the same: you work only as long each day as it takes to watch a sitcom, and the work has to be fun. Beginning with their formula for an off-the-shelf vegetable bed that you create, ready to plant, in just two hours, Tom and Marty teach you all you need to know to overwhelm your gourmet friends, from choosing the right plants for your region to planting, maintenance, and harvesting. Chapters include: "The Ten-Point Fruit and Vegetable Manifesto"; "Farming the Suburbs"; "Winners and Losers" -- the ten favorite (and least favorite) homegrowns; and the "Enemies List" -- how to confuse pests and avoid plant diseases. Twenty high-impact 20-minute projects will start you confidently growing your own cornucopia with a minimum of fuss. Encouraging, practical, and always hilarious, The 20-Minute Vegetable Gardener is liberation for home growers everywhere.
