Because they base it on a busy life, which let’s face it most of us have, it gives advice on the plants and fruits that are best for this type of growing. Which ones to avoid. Whether to use seed or pre-grown plants. This is a great starting point to make your decisions from giving you a better control of your time and space. This is especially important if you have a tiny plot like mine.
