Starting a home garden is a great way to grow your own food and help the environment. Here’s a quick start guide.
Choose the Right Spot: Pick a sunny spot with good drainage. Most veggies need at least 6 hours of sun a day.
Plan Your Garden: Decide what to grow based on your climate and what you like. Consider companion planting to make the most of your space and deter pests.
Prep the Soil: Add organic compost to your soil to improve fertility and structure. Don’t use chemical fertilizers for a more sustainable approach.
Plant Smart: Use native seeds or seedlings from local nurseries to support biodiversity. Plant at the right time for your area.
Water Wise: Use drip irrigation or rainwater harvesting.
