Similar to Buckingham's "Allotment month by month" except here presentation is different and focus is only on veg and herbs (no fruit).

Split into a number of sections:

Perfect plot - space, location, layout, crop rotation, micro-gardening
Veg grower's know how - tools, pots, soil, compost, sowing, planting, etc

Then sections by plant type: Cabbages & lefy veg; Root & stem veg; Peas & beans; Salads; Fruiting veg; cucumbers & squash; Perennial veg; Herbs - gives info on where, where & how to plant, routine care, harvesting & what can go wrong.

Vegetable year planner - month by month guide to jobs to be done: prep, sowing, planting out, routine care, harvesting, other tasks.

Vegetable doctor - pests, diseases, deficiemcies, control and valuable wildlife. ( )
