As our world is ever changing, more people are looking for strategies to save money without having to compromise the quality in the products that we eat. Many of us all over the world are looking towards growing their own fruits and vegetables. Not only is it green to grow your own, making a vegetable garden isn’t as tough as you’d think. The following are some easy actions which I use.
1.Pick out your vegetables: This is done very simply. You can go to the closest garden supply store and buy the seeds in those small packets that you plant yourself from nothing, or you can purchase what are called seeds. These are plants that have already have been started for you. Either ones will work. I prefer using the seedlings though.
2. Decide on your layout: It’s insignificant if you have a great big backyard or merely a little box on your back deck, you want your garden to be arranged. Make a drawing of the space that you’ve got and how you want your garden to look. There are a couple of simple ways to layout your garden. If you have a lot of room you may want to make a different row for each type of plant. If you only have a small area, you might set them up in a little square area. Either way you want to make a marker so you know what’s growing where.
3.Planting your garden: When doing this, you want to space you plants or seeds about 6-8 inches apart, this will give the roots adequate room to grow. If you are using seeds to plant with, just put your finger about half inch into the soil. Place the seeds into the hole and cover gently with soil. If the seeds are actually small, you can just place them without delay on top of the soil. If you are using seedlings, bury them in soil up to the top of the root ball. Note: Plants such as tomatoes, mash, corn, aubergine, and green beans should be planted about 12 inches apart as their roots require more room.
4.Water your plants: When you initially start your garden you will need to water your plants well. After the primary planting you will need to saturate the ground. This will initiate the growing of your seeds by getting them to”take root”. If you are using sprouts, this could encourage your roots to spread making your plants stronger. This could be done on a regular basis for the 1st week.
