This lady is amazing

I would recommend any book written by this author: Linda Chalker-Scott

Here's her website: https://www.puyallup.wsu.edu/~linda%20chalker-scott/

She debunks much of the myths out there with fact-based science. I read one of her books: The Informed Gardener and just loved it, because I found that she substantiated many of my observations, which go against much of the "words of wisdom" that you're always hearing out there.

She has at least two other books, but I haven't gotten it yet, but will eventually find it.

She's a witty writer, and can challenge restrictive thinking. I've read her stuff before. Don't always agree, but always come away with something to think about. Can't remember specifics right now though.
