Almost no water in the vegetable garden
With heatwaves, recurrent droughts and water restrictions, saving water in the vegetable garden is now more than ever of prime importance...
Jean-Yves Meignen is well acquainted with this problem in his vegetable garden in south-eastern France, and in this book he shares the solutions available to us: improving soil water retention, mulching crops generously, shading the vegetable garden with sails or climbing plants, densifying plantings to maintain a certain level of humidity, choosing more resistant vegetables and varieties, cultivating in troughs... It's also a question of recovering rainwater and watering better by using a drip system or oyas.
Let's take care of this blue gold!
