Astrological Gardening: The Ancient Wisdom of Successful Planting \u0026 Harvesting by the Stars Reviews

I enjoyed this book. Sadly, there are some inaccuracies (leeks do not grow in bulbs like garlic) and some other... updates. Like encouraging the use of margarine over butter since margarine has no cholesterol. I realize - sign of the times - but it's just so funny to read a book that encourages growing your own food and avoiding processed foods, then says cook your kale in margarine!
The chapter on bees was very nice. :) -
This was a little woo-woo even for me. I like the idea of gardening by astrological correspondences, and I would have liked this book more if Riotte had stuck to that topic, but she wanders all over the place with pseudo-scientific theories that left me with eyebrow raised.

One of the most useful gardening books using new concepts, that I've ever had. I've had great results using these methods.

It was just ok... barely.
