Step beneath the gentle curve of a polytunnel and discover a world of year-round abundance. Once a mystery to many gardeners, polytunnels are now lovingly unveiled by Joyce and Ben Russell in this comprehensive, month-by-month guide to growing under cover.
 
From the very first peg in the soil to the sweetest tomato harvest, Joyce’s seasoned wisdom leads you through every stage: how to prepare the ground, choose your crops, fend off pests, and even create the magic of a steaming hotbed. Along the way, organic composts, homemade feeds, and clever planting plans ensure that your tunnel brims with life through every season.
 
Inside you’ll find:
Simple steps to prepare your site and build confidence
Guidance on making the most of every crop

Month-by-month planting plans for year-round harvests
 
With over 300 colour photographs celebrating both the process and the plentiful rewards, this book is more than a manual—it is a companion, leading you gently by the hand through each turning month.
 
As Kitchen Garden Magazine says: “A polytunnel offers a relatively cheap and simple way to tend crops undercover. And Joyce Russell tells exactly how to do it.”
