Excellent book on tomato culture, notable for the detailed description of ring culture, combining up-to-date scientific knowledge with a really practical approach to the amateur's problems which should be read by all gardeners who wish to obtain their tomatos as early as possible and with maximum yields. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents Include : Foreword by Fred Streeter Preface Outdoor Culture: Site and System Outdoor Culture: The Growing Season The Container Compost Obtaining the Plants Tomatoes in the Greenhouse Ring Culture Feeding Pests and Diseases Varieties Appendix Index
