Describes techniques for growing and harvesting fast-germinating varieties of baby vegetables and sprouts, and features recipes that use the vegetables.
Diacono, a journalist, photographer, and farmer, and Leendertz, a journalist who studied horticulture, identify about 50 crops that gardeners can use to grow a garden quickly, including plants that are improved by picking when immature. They explain how to sow, grow, and harvest soaks and sprouts, micro greens, edible flowers, salad leaves, and quick-harvest vegetables, as well as recipes that use them. There is no bibliography.
