Vegetable Gardening Tips

By , About.com Guide

Choose the site for your vegetable garden making sure that:

  • it is well drained.
  • it gets about eight hours of sunshine a day.
  • a water source is close by.
Add organic matter to the soil, pull weeds and till the plot.

Some more veggie tips:

  • Start your transplants indoors about a month and a half before the last frost date.
  • Stagger plantings by two weeks or so to give yourself a longer harvest time.
  • Consider what you eat and how many plants you'll need to produce that amount.
  • Pick plants that do well in your area. Your extension agent can help you with a list.
