FAQ
How big is a vegetable gardening space?
It is best to remember that 1/2 pound of seed will be required for every square foot. So if you have an area of 10 feet by 10 feet (3 meters by 3 meters), you'll need 100 pounds of seeds.
What vegetables are good to grow together?
Growing tomatoes and peppers together is excellent because they both like similar temperatures and soil conditions. They are a good match since peppers need colder temperatures to produce their best flavor. To grow them together, you can start seeds indoors around six weeks before planting. Once the weather gets warmer, transplant your pepper and tomato plants outdoors.
Can I grow fruit tree in a pot?
Yes! If space is limited, you can grow fruit trees in pots. You should make sure that your pot has drainage holes to keep excess moisture from rotting the tree. You should also ensure that the pot is deep sufficient to support the root ball. This will protect the tree from being stressed.
