How To
How to start gardening
Gardening is one form of agriculture that dates back to the beginning. It takes patience, persistence, determination, and perseverance. First, choose a place where you would like to grow food. You could choose to plant food on a large parcel of land, or in your own backyard. Next, decide what type of plants you want to grow. Do you prefer vegetables, or flowers? Some people love to grow herbs, while others enjoy raising animals like rabbits. Before you decide what crops to plant, you should think about how much space is available. You might consider growing berries or fruits if you live in a cold climate.
Once you have made your choice, it is time to prepare the soil. Your plants' success or failure will depend on the soil they are placed in. High quality soil is rich in organic matter, which feeds your plants' roots. Organic matter includes organic matter such as leaves, twigs or grass clippings. Once you have prepared your soil, you need to add nutrients. You will need different amounts of nutrients depending on which type of plants are being grown. You can calculate these values online with a fertilizer calculator. Many fertilizers are available, so make sure you know what you are buying.
After you have prepared your soil, and added the correct nutrients, you will need to wait until your seed germinates. This process usually takes anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months, depending on the weather and the temperature in your area. After seeds have sprouted, water them every day. Problems can arise if you water your plants too frequently or too little. Avoid overwatering your plants. Overwatering your plants can lead to root disease and fungal infections. Remember that plants need less water in the summer than they do in the winter. Remember that some plants require drying out after being watered. For example, tomatoes need to stay slightly moist but not wet. They don't like to sit in soggy soil. After the plants have finished flowering they must go dormant. Dormancy occurs when plants stop producing any new growth and start to store energy for the next harvest. Dormancy means that the plant stops communicating with its roots about producing food. During this period, plants continue to store energy. The plant will eventually die if it is not given enough sunlight or temperatures below freezing.
You may be limited in what plants you can grow if you live in an urban area. Concrete sidewalks, roads or parking lots can block sunlight from reaching urban areas. Concrete absorbs light, preventing the soil underneath from getting adequate sun exposure. Because of this lack of sunlight, many plants cannot survive in cities. There are still plants that thrive in urban environments. Many trees, perennials, shrubs, as well as shrubs can be adapted to urban living. Many annuals can also grow indoors in pots. You can have fresh greenery all year round with container gardens.
You are now ready to plant your garden!
