Square Foot Gardening!

[indeliblesasha]

Or: The web design for the official site is so GOD-AWFUL BAD I want to CRY. I can't even look at it any longer. GOING TO CRY.

I need some help planning my vegetable garden, I'm doing just a 4x4 raised bed this year to get a feel for growing here in the Boulder, Colorado, US area. I literally have no idea what I'm doing, so someone who is willing to hold my hand through the process of figuring what to plant and when would be much loved.

OR, pointing me in the direction of sites with correct and detailed information? Because so far I'm finding nothing but contradictory info and stuff written for people who have degrees in botany.

HALP! I just want to grow some lettuce. Maybe some tomatoes. Broccoli? Sigh.


(edited to clarify location because I'm trying to remember that internet is not *just* in the US :D )

Square Foot Gardening Book is OK

I used the All New Square Foot Gardening book last year and it worked. You have to grit your teeth through the tons of propoganda in the book about how great it is, but the techniques worked fantastic for tomatoes especially. (I'm in central Maryland near the PA border.) And the lack of weeds was great. We'll see how well it works this year.
