Do I need to buy special equipment to grow vegetables?
Not really. A shovel, trowel and watering container are all you need.
What is a plant calendar?
A planting calendar lists the plants that should all be planted at various times during the year. The goal is for plants to grow at their best while minimizing stress.

Fall crops include carrots, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and potatoes.

How To
How To Start A Garden
Starting a garden is a lot easier than people think. There are many ways to start a garden.
One method is to purchase seeds from a local nursery. This is probably the easiest way to start a garden.
Another option is to find a community garden plot. Community gardens are located in close proximity to schools, parks, and other public spaces. These plots are often equipped with raised beds that can be used for vegetable growing.
Container gardening is an easy way to plant a garden. To start container gardening, you will need to purchase a small pot or planter. Then fill it with dirt. You can then plant your seedlings.
You also have the option to purchase a ready-made gardening kit. Kits come with everything you need to start a garden. Kits can even include tools and supplies.
The best part about planting a garden is that you don't have to follow any rules. You can do what works best for you. Follow these guidelines.
First, choose the type of garden that you would like to create. Do you need a large garden? Would you rather have a few herbs grown in pots?
Next, decide where you'll plant your garden. Or will you use a container to plant your garden? Or will it be in the ground?
Once you have determined the type of garden your want, you are ready to shop for materials.
You should also consider how much space you have available. A city apartment may not allow for a large garden.
Now you are ready to start building your garden. The first step is to prepare the area.
This involves removing all weeds and other debris. Next, make a hole in the ground for each plant. The holes should be deep enough that the roots don't touch the sides during growth.
The holes can be filled with topsoil, compost, or other organic matter. Add organic matter to retain moisture.
After preparing the site, add the plants. It is important not to crowd them. They need to have space for their roots to spread.
As the plants grow, keep adding organic matter. This helps prevent disease, and keeps the soil nourished.
Fertilize plants whenever you see new growth. Fertilizer encourages strong root systems. It promotes faster and more robust growth.
Keep watering the plants till they reach maturity. When this happens, harvest the fruits and enjoy!
