How To
How to Start Gardening
Gardening is one among the oldest forms. It requires patience, persistence, and determination. It is important to choose the right location for your garden. 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. Are you more fond of flowers or vegetables? Some people enjoy growing herbs while others love raising livestock such as rabbits. Before you decide which crops you will plant, consider the amount of space you have. If your climate is cold, you may decide to plant berries and fruits.
Once you have chosen what you will be planting, you must take some time to prepare your soil. The soil is crucial in determining whether your plants thrive or not. Good quality soil contains organic matter that helps feed your plants' roots. Organic matter includes leaves, twigs (grass clippings), manure, compost, and manure. After you have prepared the soil, you will need to add nutrients. You might need different amounts, depending on the species of plants that you want to grow. An online fertilizer calculator can help you calculate these values. There are many fertilizers on the market, so ensure you understand what you are buying.
After preparing your soil and adding the proper nutrients, you now need to wait until your seeds germinate. This can take anywhere from two weeks to three months depending on where you live and how warm it is. Once your seeds have sprouted, you need to water them regularly. Too much or too little water can cause problems. Make sure to give your plants water at regular times and not overwater. Overwatering can result in root rot, fungal diseases, and even death. Keep in mind that plants are more thirsty during summer than winter. Some plants must be dried out after being watered. For example, tomatoes need to stay slightly moist but not wet. They won't tolerate soggy soil. After they have finished flowering, they must go dormant. When plants stop producing new growth, they go dormant and start storing energy for next season's harvest. During dormancy, the plant stops sending signals to its roots telling them to produce food. Plants continue to store energy throughout this period. However, if the temperatures drop below freezing and there isn't enough sunlight, the plant will go to sleep.
You may be limited in what plants you can grow if you live in an urban area. Urban areas tend to contain concrete sidewalks, roads, buildings, and parking lots that block sunlight from reaching the ground. Concrete absorbs light which blocks sunlight from reaching the ground below. Because of this lack of sunlight, many plants cannot survive in cities. However, many plants can still thrive in urban environments. Many trees, shrubs and perennials can thrive in urban environments. Many annuals can also grow indoors in pots. You can have fresh greenery all year round with container gardens.
Now you're ready to plant.
