When Weeds Talk

Instead of treating weeds as nuisances, Jay L. McCaman’s When Weeds Talk shows how weeds act as natural indicators of soil biology and nutrient imbalances. Drawing on years of observation and cataloguing, the book profiles hundreds of weeds alongside the soil conditions that favour their growth, giving actionable clues for soil management and fertility improvement. This resource is invaluable for farmers, gardeners, landscapers and regenerative agriculture practitioners who want to diagnose soil issues by “listening” to what weeds are signaling.
