Vegetable Gardening for Engineers

What it does

This is a starting point for understanding how to grow vegetables at home. I created this document out of dissatisfaction with popular gardening books (too little detail) and social media (too much talking and clickbait). I found myself organizing and synthesizing concepts, data, and advice from disparate sources. I even turned to material from agricultural university extension programs, crop guides from commercial seed and fertilizer companies, high school biology courses, live farmer training courses and gardening workshops, and techniques from indoor cannabis growers. This document reflects my personal learning journey over the past years. You are welcome to submit pull requests or email…from jrcpl.us
