Growing your own vegetables is, above all, lots of fun. Gardeners can take untold joy and satisfaction from even the most modest growing project. It’s also a great way to engage and involve children, especially with the summer holidays fast approaching.
If you’re a beginner, it’s best to start small. Make sure your vegetable garden is large enough to ensure the proper growth of your plants.
Consider how much space each vegetable needs to grow by following the spacing guide directions on the seed packets or plantings.
To grow a successful vegetable garden, you must first start with great soil. You can buy a specially prepared potting mix for vegetable gardens at your local garden center or save money and make your own.
You should always plant the fruits, vegetables, and herbs you are most likely like to eat and use in your everyday cooking.
Nothing beats the freshness of vegetables harvested form your own lot, just when you need them. And don’t let anyone tell you that gardening isn’t physical exercise.
