How To Grow Organic Vegetable Garden? – Quick Read

Buying organic vegetables is great but growing around is even better. Here are the steps to be followed for growing organic vegetables.

• • • Look for a place that gets full sun to grow those summer vegetables that everyone loves that means 8 hours of sunlight in a day at the peak of summer time. You also make sure that there is a good drainage that means water doesn’t sit there when it rains. Leaving water on the soil can cause all kinds of problems.
    • Amount of space: you don’t need lot of space. A lot of new gardeners make the mistake of planting too much and making too bigger garden that they cannot maintain. So start working with a small area of about 4/8 square feet or 4/10 square feet area.
    • You don’t need lot of fancy machines or expensive tools to get started. You just need garden fork, spade, hammer, wooden sticks and wire. First, mark the area by digging wooden sticks.
    • Plants are fed by the microorganisms in the soil and the chemical fertilizers and pesticides can kill them. But in organic system, you will nourish the microbes and they do the work for you. This really begins with compost, you can make it or you can buy it. Mix it in the soil, the microbes work with them, break down them and turns it in to fertilizers for the plant.
    • The gardeners best friend is mouch. If you keep the soil covered after the gardening season, it will keep weeds from coming up because of not getting sunlight.

Its not too late to start to grow the vegetables. Go to the gardens and find the plants full grown there. Start with green beans plant from the seeds. You can do that in mid-summer and all the herbs are also well planted in summer. Fall is the great time for gardening.
