"I am forever grateful to Patricia Lanza for cutting my gardening time in half. By using her layering technique for all my container veggies, flowers, fruits and herbs...
I spend less time worrying about my plants and more time enjoying them. Basically, her method is simple: first a layer of wet newspaper, a layer of peat moss, then organic potting soil, then compost, then peat moss, then soil, then compost and so on. Then you pull layers aside and place in your plants. Cover with compost and some mulch. And you're done!
The plants get the nutrients they need so you don't have to mess with fertilizers. Plus the mix has excellent drainage yet keeps the soil moist. Lasagna Gardening for Small Spaces also has handy lists of easy-to-grow plants to grow in containers as well as endless amount of pointers. Be sure to check out her first book, "Lasagna Gardening : A New Layering System for Bountiful Gardens" if you'd like to grow a larger, more traditional garden."
"Okay, first you must know that I'm not a gardener. I heard about lasagna gardening, aka permaculture, aka sheet composting when I was looking into ways to save money. My husband always tilled a garden then he was the one to tend it because I don't like being eaten by bugs or itching from prickly plants. I decided I was going to give this a try.
Now I have no idea what to do with all the veggies!!! I planted 3 squash plants and have pulled over 300 squash from them. I have never canned, but did parboil and freeze most of them.
I love this book. I've used this technique for flower gardens, herb gardens, and berries. Patricia Lanza put a lot of great info in this book and I really liked the alphabetical listing of plants, etc. with info on how to grow each one using the lasagna gardening technique. I've dragged this book from nursery to nursery and dog-eared the pages.
If you hate weeds and love free mulch, buy this book!"
"One of the best gardening books I've come across. Why? It's easy to read, easy to follow, and concisely written for the ignorant, tired, or intellectually lazy. I've been using the technique this summer, and it has been very effective."
