Contrary to popular belief, larger asparagus spears are tastier than thin spears. It's also true that putting sprigs of rosemary, sage, and lavender in with potatoes will inhibit sprouting while in storage, and that weeds can be controlled organically. Once again, Organic Gardening Magazine comes through with advice and answers to more than 500 questions asked by new and veteran backyard gardeners. The easy-to-read chapters are divided into subject categories, ranging from vegetables, fruits, and herbs to essentials of starting and saving seeds, composting, and maintaining carefree lawns.
