An open mind is important for any gardener, but be sure you grow food that will actually make it to the dinner table! Make a list of the top 10 vegetables you want to prioritize in your garden. Vegetable Planting Difficulty Levels Hugelkulturor “lasagna gardening” has been used for centuries in Germany to build thriving soil from the ground up. If you are starting a garden on really compacted clay, a weedy vacant lot, or a lawn, lasagna-style gardening will help you get started right away and build lush soil for years to come.

Ideally, your garden should be in the flattest area possible, with good drainage (no pooling of rainwater), maximum sunlight (or only slight shade), and close to the house or tool shed for easy access. Choosing Your Garden BedsIn-ground beds are more like a production farm or market garden. These are best if you have more space, a tighter budget, and/or moderately healthy soil that has not been treated with herbicides. The best way to begin in-ground beds is with the tarping method described below. Weeds are the bane of any gardener’s existence! They compete with our plants for space, water, sunlight, and nutrients. Plus, they just look unsightly. If you prefer a weed-free garden, prevention is key. Get them while they’re young and small beforethey create any big problems. Weed Control Strategies There are a number of different products you can use to enhance the organic growth of your plants. These include: 1. COMPOST TEA Exclusion is another simple approach to organic pest control. Basically, you just keep the bugs off your plants with a translucent fabric called row cover. Row cover is best used on brassicas (“colecrops” like kale, radish, turnip,bokchoy, cabbage, cauliflower, etc.) to keep flea beetles from infesting the leaves. Row cover also prevents cabbage moths from laying their caterpillar eggs. Organic gardening takes an ecological approach to cultivating food. Most importantly, eating organically ensures that you are feeding your family the most wholesome food possible and maintaining a healthy environment in your yard and garden for years to come. Organic GardeningRules There are a number of rules to follow in organic gardening.

However, it’s important to remember that adding too much manure to the soil can lead to nutrient imbalances and potential problems such as nitrogen burn, which can damage or even kill plants. Therefore, it’s best to err on the side of caution and avoid over-applying manure. In this article, we’ll teach you all you need to know about the importance of pH when growing cannabis, and how to change your pH levels if necessary. However, airborne problems like powdery mildew or blight may still arise. Spots or spores on plant leaves are nothing to be alarmed about, but you should take note of how to prevent these issues. Plant Disease Prevention Strategies One major mistake that gardeners make is planting vegetables that they don’t actually enjoy eating due to trends and peer pressure. Instead, focus your efforts on growing food crops that you truly enjoy, thus avoiding wasting your space, time, and labor. You will find it is more rewarding to plant vegetables that serve as ingredients for the food on your dinner table.Select the containers from which to germinate your seeds. The most suitable material for growing containers is plastic because it is cheaper. After selecting your container, place it in a shallow tray to allow drainage.

As earlier mentioned, mulch is made up of decomposing organic materials that can help improve soil quality. It also helps reduce watering requirements and suppress weeds in your vegetable patch. Generally, the best mulch for vegetable gardens should have compost, fallen leaves, and straw.Gently loosen seedling starts from their cells by squeezing the bottom of the tray until it releases the root ball (careful not to disturb the roots). Molasses is a powerful, yet often overlooked tool when it comes to growing cannabis. Properly used, it can strengthen and boost the very foundation of your grow. First of all, it produces a better product. Sure, cannabis plants grown with non-organic fertilisers like Top Grow produce big, dense, and potent buds. And when given a proper flush, these buds taste and burn well too. However, most cannabis connoisseurs will notice a stark difference in the taste, burn, and sometimes even effect of bud that’s been grown organically.

Before adding manure to your soil, it’s a good idea to have your soil tested to determine its nutrient content and pH level. This will help you determine how much manure is needed to meet the needs of your plants without causing harm to them.

DEFINING “ORGANIC”

As a general rule of thumb, it is recommended to add about 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) of well-rotted farmyard manure to the soil before planting potatoes. This will help improve soil structure and fertility by adding organic matter, which will promote healthy root growth and help retain moisture in the soil. I scatter white alyssum and calendula around all of my plants for an extra touch of beauty and a “companion planting” approach. A great bonus is these plants also attract and feed local pollinators. Plus, who doesn’t love beautiful flowers? However, you need an irrigation system or you will be hand-watering with a hose every day. Seeds must stay continuously moist until they germinate. They may also need to be protected from rodents or bad weather. Direct-seeded crops often need to be thinned to the proper spacing. Accessibility is another concern, especially if you’re growing out in the wild. It won’t be practical to plant somewhere that's far away or extremely hard to get to. Remember, your plants will need watering and sufficient care from time to time, even if you’re doing a guerrilla grow in the wild. This spot should not be too difficult to reach, but also somewhat far away from places where other people may stroll around. Extra time may need to be allocated for planning, preparation and vigilant maintenance – spotting problems before they get out of hand
