Cabbages and cauliflowers
James John Howard Gregory
Growing a good cabbage is a craft, and James Gregory spares no detail in teaching it. His practical treatise covers every step from seed to market: soil, varieties, cultivation, storage, and selling the crop for profit. Down-to-earth advice from a nineteenth-century seedsman who knew his trade. For the market gardener and the ambitious home grower alike.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
