Companion gardening is just planting certain plants together because they will help each other grow and become healthier. It is said that companion gardening is even better than using fertilizers or artificial ways of letting plants grow because the plants can benefit from each other and it's all a natural process.
Vegetable GardeningWant to concentrate on specific vegetables that are easy to grow and are favorites in most cook books?
The author would like to stress the importance of growing the right type and mix of veggies. This way you get a better crop, and useful veggies that usually go hand in hand with each other.
Don't try to do too much too soon. Don't try to start planting when it's too cold outside. The lowest soil temperature for planting is 40 degrees Fahrenheit. The best soil temperature is around 50 degrees to 60 degrees.
Every successful farmer/gardener has a mentality that considers nature first, before spur of the moment decisions. As an added bonus, planting veggies will turn you into a very observant person.
You know you're a serious farmer/gardener when: you learn to watch the news for a weather forecast; you constantly look at the temperature; you're schedule improves because you need to water your plants at this hour, every day.
Winter GardeningRegardless of whether your region's winters are a perpetual chill or pleasantly moderate, gardening can have a lot of difficulties, but it also provides opportunities. Whether you are planning for your summer or spring planting, looking to grow fresh herbs and vegetables, or simply want to keep your favorite plants alive during the colder months, winter gardening provides a lot more options that you probably ever realized. There really is no reason for you not to keep your thumb green throughout the entire year.
