In the FIRST BOOK the author treats of the garden, its site, soil and moisture; of manures; of sowing and planting; hoeing, weeding and watering; of all the pests of a garden (insects, worms, mice, moles, frogs, toads, scorpions, snakes); of protection against hail, hoarfrost and lightning, blasting and mildew; vegetables and flowers; fruit trees.
