About the book: year / I, as the author of the book “Diaries of a Smart Summer Resident,” have received many questions over several years. In addition, over the years, a lot of them have accumulated from readers of the newspaper “Courier Pskov - Velikiye Luki,” where I am a regular expert in the “Dacha.Sad” column. Having a wealth of experience (almost half a century of dacha experience), I decided to combine and systematize these questions that usually arise among gardeners, arranging them accordingly according to the timing of the season. The result is an unusual calendar of seasonal work, in which my answers are the clues. It's very convenient. Any question arises - you don’t need to look for an answer to it in a book for a long time, look at the month and read the answer on the pages, thanks to which the reader can take appropriate measures in advance and in a timely manner. Here you will find all the most important things that a summer resident needs to know and, I hope, a lot of interesting things not only for beginners, but also for experienced gardeners.
