Seedlings crowded into one corner and half a bed empty by midsummer? This guide helps beginner gardeners with one or two raised beds plan a full season of vegetables that fit the space.

Inside: a beginner crop chart for 12 common crops (lettuce, radish, peas, spinach, carrots, beets, bush beans, cucumbers, zucchini, tomatoes, peppers, kale) with spacing in inches, sowing or transplant timing in weeks before or after your last spring frost, and a follow-on crop for each. You’ll learn how to look up your local frost date and count weeks from it, then follow one worked example of two 4x8 ft beds through spring, summer and fall.

The chapters cover measuring the beds, spacing plants at their full size, sowing in small batches, thinning, simple soil care with compost and mulch, and deciding what goes into a patch after an early crop comes out.

Included: the full eBook plus three printable tools: a Two-Bed Layout Grid, a Seasonal Sowing Calendar and a Harvest and Replant Log.

Growing conditions vary, so confirm timing with your seed packets and your state extension service. No product recommendations, and no guide can promise a harvest size.

7-day full refund if it isn’t useful to you.
