Ed Rosenthal’s Protect Your Garden is a troubleshooting guide that focuses on the inevitable pests, diseases, and nutrient imbalances that get in the way of a bountiful crop. Organized as a field guide with over 100 full-color photographs for quick and easy identification, the book covers over 70 prevalent problems that can stunt growth and kill plants, such as spider mites, powdery mildew, and nitrogen deficiency.

A wide range of solutions is presented, ranging from commercial products and homemade recipes to bio-controls. All are friendly to humans, pets, and the planet –– and are extremely effective. Whether flowers or food, the harvest will be safe to be around, touch, and eat.
