Built your own garden





Dirty of soil, hot under the sun, dirty, worm, frogs and etc.: that the gardener’s close friends ‘. Gardening is fun, easy and anyone can do it. I wish more people will start on gardening; perhaps it’s good for family’s activity. Why need a garden? Gardening needs persistence and dedication. Gardening of fruits and vegetables are good to have indeed can save the money, but they can be harder to maintain. They need initial fully care from the pesticide and other weeds.

How to start garden?

First we need to plan. Choose the best crops to growth such as long beans, vegetables, tomato and etc. The soils must be suitable enough. Cannot be too sandy or to clay soil. Sandy soils will lose a lot of water from the soil surface which is for the root zone (normally 0-30cm from the soil surface). Keep in mind the space and the available of the lightening as well as the cover to avoid accesses of water from the rain and to hot from the sun. Growing the tomato and vegetables such as ‘cili api’ is easier, ‘serai’, ‘daun pandan’, ‘bendi’ is easy to growth. Perhaps we no need to buy from the market. Furthermore, we will have the fresh vegetables without the poison. To make an easy guidance as a beginner in garden, we can surf the websites such as www.bhg.com which will give us the guidance to do the layout of the small plots. We can buy a very cheap seed in the market.
