You may choose your balcony, backyard, patio, or anywhere else. But before digging in, make sure to follow a few considerations:<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sunshine<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find a spot where your plants will be getting plenty of sunlight. You must have heard this a million times, but ample sunlight is critical for your plants&#8217; growth. Many vegetables need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. If you cannot find any sunny place, you can go for shade-tolerant vegetables. Later in this guide, you&#8217;ll find more details on choosing the right vegetables.<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Access to water<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your vegetables will need regular watering. So, take note of the accessibility of water in your garden area. Consider selecting your patch nearer to a water source to avoid any hassle.<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Drainage and soil quality<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vegetables thrive in well-drained soil. The soils which are not well-drained lead to root rot. So, make sure your soil is rich in organic matter. If naturally, it&#8217;s not good enough, consider some additives like compost. Also, till the soil to remove any rocks hindering plant growth. At this point, your soil is set for planting. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-438695cc header2-subhead e-flex e-con-boxed e-con\" data-id=\"438695cc\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5756e2c8 things-h elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5756e2c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_the_size_of_your_vegetable_garden\"><\/span>Choose the size of your vegetable garden<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b58b075 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5b58b075\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gardening-website.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/assets\/blogs\/veg+garden+and+veg+soil+Comp\/stock-photo-man-digs-sand-with-a-shovel-sandbox-gardening-1815137165-transformed.webp\" title=\"\" alt=\"man preparing space for vegetable gardening\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52bf4bad header2-text elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"52bf4bad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I know we get so charged up initially and want to devote a lot of space and effort to gardening. I recommend not doing that. Otherwise, you&#8217;ll end up burnt out. So, start small if you&#8217;re a beginner and expand further, one step at a time.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;re three common ways to plant your vegetables:<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Container planting\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re going down the route of containers, make sure to choose ones with a good depth. Small containers may obstruct plant growth to the fullest. In addition, choose <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0B1JR9GPZ\/ref=sbl_dpx_outdoor-pots_B08K3X7M2J_0\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clayey containers <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as they protect roots from excess heat. On the contrary, plastic containers may absorb a lot of heat, leading to root damage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Raised-bed planting<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It depends on the space that you have dedicated to gardening. If you have a spare space in your backyard, you can go with raised-bed gardening. For that, 4&#8242; 8&#8242; or 4&#8242; 4&#8242; is a good size for beginners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ground planting\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green thumbs suggest a 10&#8242; 10&#8242; plot if you plant directly in the ground.

It leads you to the most tricky part of the game. Now, your one big question would be, &#8216;What to grow?&#8217; &#8216;Will I be able to reach the harvest stage successfully?&#8217;\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;ve got you. Keep reading to discover how you&#8217;ll choose the best vegetables compatible with your space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Check your gardening Zone<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First off, you need to check your geographic zone through <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/planthardiness.ars.usda.gov\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USDA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Most importantly, it&#8217;ll tell you about the length of the growing season and your first and last frost date. For instance, California falls in zone 9A; its first frost date is in November, while its last frost date is in March.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea is to plant your fall veggies so they get at least 3 months of solid growth before frost. Still, there&#8217;re lots of frost-hardy vegetables such as carrots, cauliflower, kale, etc. But other veggies, such as potatoes and lettuce, won&#8217;t withstand the cooler climate. So, pick wisely.<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Assess your space for vegetable garden<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You already have a gist of where you will be setting up your garden based on previously mentioned factors. Now, you must pick the vegetables that will go well with your space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a small space for the garden, you need to choose veggies suitable for compact spaces, such as cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, or pole beans. On the other hand, if your garden is spacious, you may experiment with sprawling vegetables such as pumpkins, corn, and squash.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Consider your taste preference<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you&#8217;ve narrowed your options based on your zone and space, choose the vegetables you&#8217;ll be excited to harvest and eat. If you&#8217;re not a fan of turnips or beets, don&#8217;t bother just because they&#8217;re easy to grow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Research varieties and experiment\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find dozens of varieties within a single vegetable type.

But wait, that&#8217;s not all. You have to take care of your garden like a baby. Read on to learn some key considerations for maintaining your vegetable garden:<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Water your plants regularly\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watering is one of the critical points to consider while caring for your plants. Make sure to water your plants moderately. Now, the amount of watering will vary as per your vegetable size, growth stage, and soil type. The rule of thumb is to water more frequently and moderately than drowning your plants all at once.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Mulch and fertilize your plants<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mulching helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature, which is essential for healthy plant growth. Consider applying a layer of organic mulch, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/FloraCraft-Decorative-Straw-Bale-Natural\/dp\/B00E9IVMV0\/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2EGS0460NJT34&amp;keywords=straw+mulch&amp;qid=1680600953&amp;sprefix=straw+mulch%2Caps%2C1093&amp;sr=8-3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">straw mulch<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Super-Moss-23261-Coco-Mulch\/dp\/B00I6AMFX6\/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1SS31WV8JQHB5&amp;keywords=garden%2Bmulch&amp;qid=1680600822&amp;sprefix=garden%2Bmulch%2B%2Caps%2C2213&amp;sr=8-4&amp;th=1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">coco mulch<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or grass clippings, around your plants to keep them healthy and thriving.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, vegetable plants require a lot of nutrients to grow healthy and strong, so it&#8217;s essential to fertilize them appropriately.

Look for chewed leaves, holes in fruits, or yellowing leaves, which can all indicate a pest infestation or disease. If you find a problem, act quickly to prevent it from spreading and damaging your entire garden.<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Remove Weeds from your vegetable garden<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to weed your garden regularly, either by hand or with a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Corona-GT-3040-Clipper-Extendable\/dp\/B004LZ5WLW\/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1CWFIRM0VWS8Q&amp;keywords=weed+remover+tool&amp;qid=1680601304&amp;sprefix=weed+remover%2Caps%2C491&amp;sr=8-4\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">weed remover tool<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, to keep them under control.
