FAQ
How can you prepare the soil to grow vegetables in your garden?
It is simple to prepare soil for your vegetable garden. First, get rid of all weeds. You can then add organic matter, such as composted cow manure, leaves and grass clippings. Let the plants grow by watering well.
What vegetables are good to grow together?
Growing tomatoes and peppers together is excellent because they both like similar temperatures and soil conditions. They can complement each other because tomatoes require heat to mature, and peppers require lower temperatures for their optimal flavor. If you want to try growing them together, start seeds indoors about six weeks before planting them. Once the weather gets warmer, transplant your pepper and tomato plants outdoors.
When can you plant flowers in your garden?
When the weather is milder and the soil has a good moisture content, spring is the best time to plant flowers. If you live in a cold area, plant flowers only after the first frost. The ideal temperature for indoor gardening is 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
