The premise

Stop paying for
the garden.

The average American vegetable garden runs on habit — bagged soil, boutique fertilizer, a spray for every problem, and a tiller every April. Almost none of it survives contact with the research.

This is the other way to do it: cheaper, better sourced, and honest about what doesn't work.

Every method states what it costs, what it replaces, how it fails, and where the evidence sits — sourced to university extension research, with the full directory printed at the back.

🛡️ 7-day money-back guarantee — if it isn't for you, it's free.

Every claim backed by university research

What's inside

Specific, or it doesn't ship.

  • 🫛
    The six pea seeds that tell you whether free compost or manure will kill your garden — persistent herbicide carryover survives the animal, the pile, and the heat, and no smell or lab strip reveals it.
  • 🛏️
    Filling one 4×8 bed costs $264 from bags and $54 from a truck. The book does the cubic-yard arithmetic and gives you the phone script.
  • 🧪
    The same nitrogen at $1.09 a pound and at $14.80 a pound — printed on the label, if you know the calculation.
  • 🧅
    Curing: two weeks of doing nothing that turns three weeks of storage into eight months. Five crops, five sets of conditions.
  • 💸
    The ten most expensive garden myths, ranked by what they cost you a year, with an honest total of what you reclaim.
  • 🃏
    A card for every crop: spacing drawn to scale, homemade preparations, and what goes wrong — cutworm collars, foil stem wraps, chitting potatoes, kaolin clay for apples.

The grower behind it

Bill · Farmeasy

"If I can't back it up, I don't say it. And when something doesn't work — even something I use myself — you'll hear that too."

Bill is the Farmeasy grower. The authority in this book doesn't rest on a biography — it rests on the sources. Every method traces to land-grant university extension or peer-reviewed research, and the full directory is printed at the back, so you never have to take his word for it.

Questions

The honest small print.

Is this a printed book?

No — it's one PDF, 526 pages, about 54 MB, with no DRM. It's formatted US Letter so it prints cleanly at home, and it reads well on a tablet.

Is it specific to the United States?

Yes. USDA zones, frost dates, imperial units, US retailers and seed houses, US pests — and every agronomic claim cites land-grant Cooperative Extension research.

Will it tell me how much I'll save?

Each method states its own cost and what it replaces, and the appendix has a printable Savings Ledger to total what you stopped buying. What that adds up to depends on what you were spending — the book says so rather than promising a number.

What if it doesn't help me?

7-day, no-questions money-back guarantee.

Do I pay for future editions?

No. Free lifetime updates, including all future editions.
