FAQ
How do you prepare the soil?
Preparing soil for a vegetable garden is easy. The first step is to remove any weeds that may be in the area where your vegetable garden will be planted. You can then add organic matter, such as composted cow manure, leaves and grass clippings. Then water the plants well and wait for them to sprout.
What's the difference?
Hydroponic gardening makes use of nutrient-rich water rather than soil to grow plants. Aquaponics is a system that combines fish tanks and plants to create an ecosystem that is self-sufficient. It's like having a farm right in your backyard.
What is the best vegetable gardening layout?
The best vegetable garden layout depends on where you live. For easy harvesting, you can plant vegetables together if the area is large. For maximum yield, however, it is best to space your plants if you are in a rural area.
Which seeds should start indoors?
A tomato seed makes the best seed for indoor planting. Tomatoes grow quickly and bear good fruit all year. It is important to be careful when planting tomatoes in containers. If you plant too early, the soil may dry out, which could cause the roots to rot. Plant diseases like bacterial disease can quickly kill plants.

How To
Organic fertilizers to be used in the garden
Organic fertilizers are made of natural substances like manure, compost and fish emulsion. The term organic refers to the use of non-synthetic materials for their production. Synthetic fertilizers are chemicals that are used in industrial processes. Because they are quick and efficient, synthetic fertilizers are popular in agriculture. They don't require laborious preparation. Synthetic fertilizers can pose risks to the environment and human health. Synthetic fertilizers require large amounts of energy as well as water to be produced. Many synthetic fertilizers are also harmful to groundwater and water surface because of runoff. This pollution is detrimental to humans and wildlife alike.
There are many types of organic fertilizers.
* Manure is created when livestock eat foods containing nitrogen (a nutrient for plants). It's made of bacteria and enzymes which break down the waste to simple compounds that can be taken by plants.
* Compost - A mixture of grass clippings from the lawn, decaying leaves, vegetable scraps, and animal dung. It is rich with nitrogen, phosphorus. potassium, calcium. magnesium. sulfur. iron. copper. manganese. molybdenum. chlorine. and carbon. It's porous so it is able to retain moisture well, and slowly releases nutrients.
* Fish Emulsion: A liquid product derived primarily from fish oil. It has the ability to dissolve oils, fats and is very similar to soap. It contains phosphorous, nitrogen, and trace elements.
* Seaweed Extract is a concentrated solution that contains minerals extracted from red algae, brown algae and green algae. It is a good source of vitamins A, C, iron, and iodine.
* Guano is the excrement of seabirds and bats. It contains nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfate, chloride, and carbon.
* Blood Meal is the meat and bones of animals that have been slaughtered. It's rich in protein and can be used to feed poultry and other animals. It also contains trace minerals like phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen.
To make organic fertilizer, combine equal parts of manure, compost, and/or fish emulsion. Mix well. If you don’t possess all three ingredients you can substitute one for the other. You can mix one part of the fish emulsion with two portions of compost if you don't have enough.
Apply the fertilizer by spreading it evenly using a tiller or shovel. Spread about a quarter cup of the mixture per square foot of growing space. To see signs of new growth, you'll need more fertilizer each two weeks.
