Step 1: Preparing the ground

A good preparation of the land can define the success or not of a garden, after all, it is there where they will be born, they will grow and they will develop their vegetables.
Making a soil analysis is very important, so that later a good correction can be made. If you plan to make a small garden, the soil analysis is not necessary, it becomes optional.
The land where the beds are to be made should preferably be leveled, free of large lumps and free of weeds.

Step 2: Make the bed

The beds can be made with agricultural implements. They can also have different sizes and shapes, according to your will. I recommend that you do not build very high beds, because there is no need, nor very wide, because it makes handling difficult.

Step 3: Landfill fertilization

If you have done a soil analysis, fertilization must be done under the result of the same, if you have not done so, you can use a very simple adduction.
10 liters of farm manure or 5 liters of manure or 10 liters of earthworm humus or 10 liters of organic dust composed of square meter of the bed. Fertilization must be done before setting up the site.

Step 4: choose what you are going to plant

If your garden is subsistence, plant what you want with the vegetables you want.
Remember to observe the area occupied by each plant, so that you do not plant everything together, this will mean that the quality of the final product is not as expected.

5th step: how to plant

There are two ways depending on the type of seeds.

  • You can prepare seedlings and do the transplant.
  • There is direct sowing in the field.
    The seedbeds can be prepared in special trays, as they can also be made in recycled containers.

Plants for direct planting: tillage is most commonly used with plants that reproduce by branches or shins. In the case of varieties propagated through seeds, one should use species with large seeds, otherwise the germination index will be very low or zero.

The space between one plant and another is a factor to observe with caution, if the plants get too close, they will not develop and if they stay too far, they can develop too much and be physically unacceptable in the consumer market.

It always nice when we learn all of the benefits of agriculture and engage in agriculture at our youthful age.... agriculture is not just for the old but for everyone and we @farms encourage agriculture practices of all types.
