This book by Susan Mulvihill is the essential guide to troubleshooting problems and guiding your crops from seed to harvest. --Niki Jabbour, author of The Year-Round Vegetable Gardener and Growing Under Cover; co-founder of SavvyGardening.com The Vegetable Garden Problem Solver Handbook fills a nice niche in the home vegetable gardening world. It's a good companion to Susan's previous book, The Vegetable Garden Pest Handbook. The disease and animal sections have clear, identifying photos and descriptions of diseases and animal damage, and Susan offers detailed, straight-forward solutions. What I really like is the amount of time Susan spends on describing and offering solutions to non-pest related problems such as poor germination, harsh weather, inadequate pollination, and physiological disorders. These problems often get overlooked by the home gardener and Susan's identification, descriptions and remedies offer helpful solutions. --Charlie Nardozzi, author of The Complete Guide to No-Dig Gardening and Foodscaping Susan is my kind of gardener - thinking from the ground up to solve garden problems at the root, and truly explaining why they happen so you're armed with not only the solution - but the understanding that takes you from a good gardener to a great one. --Kevin Espiritu, author of Field Guide to Urban Gardening and Grow Bag Gardening; founder of EpicGardening.com Susan Mulvihill has done it again!
