I went into this book a skeptical because of my experience in killing plants. But honestly, this book gave me a bit of hope. It lays everything out step by step, so even someone like me, who has no clue where to start, can actually picture turning a tiny space into a thriving garden. I liked how it covered different seasons, so you’re not just left guessing what to do when the weather changes. If I had one nitpick, I wish it had a bit more on troubleshooting common plant problems. But overall, if you’ve ever dreamed of growing your own food or flowers but felt limited by space, this is a solid guide.
