Growing Your Own Veggies
Perhaps you live inside the city but have always had green fingers. Perhaps you have a modest patch of soil in your garden that you want to transform into a productive garden. You may perhaps even have read a short article or two about organic fruit and vegetables and want to try growing them by yourself.
Regardless of the reason why for growing your own vegetables, you are at the stage where you are planning to jump into growing in some manner. Before you do so, there are a number of factors to consider that you ought to think about to ensure that your experience is enjoyable and worthwhile.
The first, and possibly simplest, question that you should consider is what type of garden do you want to have? Still writing purely about veg gardens, there are a number of types of them depending on the space you have available plus your lifestyle.
Maybe you are interested just in herbs or smaller plants? They can easily be held in a container garden using flower pots. Plus container gardens have the additional benefit of being able to be brought into the home when the weather gets too chilly outside. There’s no need even for transplanting!
If you are thinking of more of a ‘regular’ style of garden, the ground will need to be prepped and tilled before you could plant. The soil will need to be tested as well to create the most beneficial marriage of soil type to what’s being cultivated. With a large enough garden, you have the potential of harvesting enough vegetables to eat throughout the growing season and store/pickle/can what's left for the off-season.
Finally, an enhancement to the idea of the ‘regular’ garden is a raised garden. At its simplest, raised garden beds resemble sandboxes with vegetables growing out of them. These enclosures have a great number of benefits over ‘regular’ bed gardening. The earth itself warms more quickly early in the growing season and the structure of the enclosure itself is great for drainage. There's also the added return of not having to bend or stoop quite as much when working in your garden, which anyone with lower back pain can easily identify with.
After research into the kind of garden, the second question to ask yourself is why. Exactly why do you wish to get into growing plants? Is it for one of the reasons that has been mentioned at the beginning of the article, or perhaps another more personal one.
Gardens can provide a host of fruit and vegetables that are unique to individual preferences. Should you enjoy pumpkins, for example, turn part of your back yard into a pumpkin patch. And honestly, the texture and taste of freshly grown produce picked at almost the moment that they ripen can not be surpassed.
Once bitten by the gardening bug - no pun intended - you'll find that you lean towards organic gardening to produce vegetables and fruits that are free from pesticides. Or you might find that your soil is particularly suited to one kind of vegetation or another; for example, blueberries tend to thrive in soil that has an acidic pH level.
When you make the choice that this is a hobby that you would like to engage in, the possibilities are almost endless, subject only to your imagination. Every year brings a new blank slate of options that you could work with. If something doesn’t work particularly well, don’t try it again next year. If You Love something and you don’t mind the extra effort involved with care and upkeep, You Can plant twice.
The choice is up to you.
