Weeds - Control Without Poisons

Weeds - Control without Poisons is a compendium of advice by Charles Walters, founder of Acres, USA, and author of An Acres USA Primer. According to Walters, "Weeds are an index of what is wrong – and sometimes what is right – with the soil, or at least with the fertility program." Adding back the missing elements, like calcium, magnesium, potassium or others, will get rid of more weeds than using all the available herbicides on the market, and increase your crop yield. Weeds - Control without Poisons gives information on hundreds of weeds, including why they grow, what soil conditions help or stop them, and how to control them without poisoning your soil. Written in an anecdotal style, it will entertain as well as inform. Do you know where tumbleweed came from? For Charles Walters, it was his childhood introduction to this weed that sparked his interest in all weed pests. The book includes a cross-referenced common and scientific glossary of weeds and a pictorial glossary.
