How many times have you wanted to grow fresh vegetables but found yourself with nothing available in your area? Do all the stores only sell pre-packed, preservative laden produce that isn’t safe for human consumption or contains high amounts of pesticides. Wishing there was an easier way!
I know what it’s like when life throws us curveballs and we just don’t know how things will get done anymore… But now imagine having access 24/7 without driving anywhere – even if they’re not on sale at any grocery store near where YOU live!!!
Growing your own organic vegetable garden not only assures fresh, safe, great tasting vegetables all season long; it also provides you with exercise, stress relief, and the knowledge that your hard work is accomplishing great things for your family.
If you’re thinking about getting a massage, here are some tips that can help. Masses of people have asked me what their experience was like and how it compared to other massages they’ve had before in terms of quality or not being too hard on them at all times but rather just enough so as not cause pain if there were any sensitive spots near my hands/shoulders etc.
The best advice I could give anyone interested would be: Find someone who knows what they’re doing! Talk with friends first – you’ll know right away whether this sounds good for both parties involved.
Preparation
The first thing you need to do is make sure your humus for the soil. Ideally, start composting well ahead of time so that way all we have are recycled materials and not store – bought fertilizers or anything like pesticides. Even though there’s lots out on organic ways one can go about making their own natural fertilizer – this would be better still as they’re much healthier than man made ones too.
The key in gardening isn’t just what seeds/plants were planted but also when (and how) these particular plants will thrive at different times during each season because it really does take teamwork with Mother Nature herself if anyone wants an enjoyable experience while tending her garden.
When it’s time to make your next compost pile, just throw in some fallen leaves and other plant matter like grass clippings. After a few months of decomposition the finished product will be quality humus that you can use as fertilizer for any garden.
In addition to your compost humus, there are of course other natural ingredients you can add to build nutrients in your garden soil. Manure is one of the most common, but it will have a different effect depending on where it’s found and what else was present at time of collection.
You may also have to add natural ingredients to the soil if the pH balance is off. If the pH of your soil is below 6, add crushed eggshells or clam shells (for acidic soils) and oyster dust for more alkaline treatments. If your pH is above 7.5, lower it by mulching with wood chips or sawdust.
It may take time before you notice the effects of these measures but in a few weeks to months they can really start working their magic by increasing organic matter that breaks down into nutrients over many years instead just one season like chemical fertilizers do today.
Decide what you want to grow
You can grow a lot of vegetables, but some are easier to grow than others. For example, potatoes and carrots don’t need as much space as tomatoes or strawberries.
I recommend buying organic seedlings because they’re better for the environment and your family. They taste good too! But if you can’t find any, just sprout your own seeds. This way you can be sure there are no chemicals going into your vegetables at any stage of growth.
You also want to be sure that the variety you buy isn’t genetically altered in any way. GMO’s that are created to be more flavorful than their non-GMO counterparts can also have negative side effects on your health. These modified foods might not only cause you less flavor, but they could make it harder for produce in general – especially those vitamins and minerals we need!
Cultivating
You also want to be sure that the variety you buy isn’t genetically altered in any way. While these plants might grow better looking fruits and vegetables, they produce less flavorful and healthy veggies than their unsullied counterparts.
Negative impacts of GM foods/produce on human health are well documented: Decreased vitamin C levels due to genetic modification (which makes them more resistant or tolerant) decrease omega 3 fatty acid production which can lead not just negatively affect our moods but compromise heart function as well.
If you have an insect problem, you can find plants to repel specific pests. If you have larger animals eating your plants, you can choose vine vegetables that furry friends prefer not to cross over. If you choose complementary plants, this can also be used to restore nutrients to the soil.
Also, when it comes to gardening, I recommend planting different vegetables every year. This way you’ll be able to make sure that they rotate out properly and don’t get overtaken by pests or diseases.
Creating your own organic vegetable garden can be a lot of work, but once you bite into that first perfect tomato it will make all the trouble worth every single minute.
