Yates Garden Problem Solver

The Yates Garden Problem Solver is a comprehensive guide to solving garden problems.

Yates Garden Problem Solver was first published as Yates Garden Doctor more than fifteen years ago. Then, in 2000, it was revised and released as Yates Garden Problem Solver with a modern format that featured clear, easy-to-identify illustrations of pests and diseases and simple, straightforward solutions. But, as gardening ideas change, so too do solutions for garden problems and this new edition has been completely updated with greater emphasis on recommending the most effective and least toxic solution for each problem

And, although Yates is well known for its wider range of garden products, this book is not simply a piece of advertising material. Granted, it does suggest Yates solutions where appropriate, but it also has extensive guidelines for reducing the risk of pest and disease infestation by growing healthy plants that have natural resistance to common problems.
