The Garden Guy: Seasonal Guide to Organic Gardening in the Desert Southwest (Outdoor and Nature)
Although this book contains many useful facts and ideas, it has no index. In addition, it refers to his other book constantly saying you should do this thing but you have to buy my other book to find out how to do it. In several places he says to do something and then says go to your local garden store and ask them how to do it. My biggest problem with this book is the constant references to “Extreme Juice.” Unfortunately there is no definition, explanation or reference and without an index I have not been able to find out what it consists of or how to make this concentrated fertilizer. I’m guessing it is in his other book but he doesn’t tell you!

I’ve been following Dave for awhile—it’s nice to have an “Arizona” authority on gardening and imaginative and cost conscious as well—he makes it easy.

This a great companion book to David Owens book “Extreme Gardenning”. They are like my bible to gardening organic in the desert of Arizona.

Anyone gardening in the hostile desert knows how tough it is to garden. Can’t say this book makes it easy, however, it sure makes it easier !
Some of his ideas are so simple, yet so effective. For example, stop fighting with uncooperative clay soil – put an old hay bale on top of the clay, and grow there !! It works, and over time the hay or straw softens the clay, too….Can’t imagine not having this book as I garden…
