To have a successful vegetable garden this year, you decided to pick up as many valuable organic vegetable gardening tips as you can. Last Spring & Summer, you worked very hard at your garden, without learning what to do & your results were fair at best. Not this year.

7 Organic Vegetable Gardening Tips For Hungry Gardeners

  1. 1. What Vegetables To Grow….Think about the vegetables you & your family enjoy eating. Balance that with whether these are expensive vegetables. For your efforts you may as well save as much money by growing your own. By example, red & orange peppers are much more expensive than green peppers. Buying lettuces in a mesculun salad is more expensive than iceberg lettuce. Other expensive vegetables include asparagus, arugula & redicchio. Try some of the heirloom tomatoes, such as the popular Brandywine variety, instead of a “red” tomato.
  2. 2. Raised Beds…..Instead of having to dig deep into your soil (about a foot for tomatoes), build or buy a raised bed & fill it with soil & compost (you can buy organic compost) This will save you a lot of work
  3. 3. Keep it Small…if you plant too many plants, you may find it too much work at first.
  4. 4. Plant Garlic Bulbs…to keep away the animal pests that might eat your plants.
  5. 5. Fence in your garden….if you can use a fence to keep out the pests.

  6. 6. fifty degree soil…make sure your soil is at least fifty degrees before planting.
  7. 7. Water about 2 times a week…water deep
