A quick glance through it, seems very good.

I heartily recommend the Teagasc book at least there are no howlers or contradictions in it or language problems like other books published in recent years. Stephen Alexander is the author and he really knows his onions, yet we hear very little about him. He would not confuse Broccoli and calabrese like other "experts"

......after our teagasc funding taxes are taken into account. So, not free really. Not as free as this forum where I've learned more about gardening in 2 years than I learned in an RHS cert, and that's no word of a lie. Thanks folks.
