Planning a Vegetable Garden

1. Planning a
Vegetable Garden

2. Success in vegetable gardening will depend on a
well-prepared plan. A gardener has to consider several
factors in his/her plan for a vegetable garden so that
the garden would be able to produce as much
products as possible.

3. The following are the factors to consider in
vegetable gardening:

4. 1. Site selection. A good
location for a garden is in a space
where plants can be reached with
good sunlight and air, and has
access to water supply.

5. 2. Soil condition. Vegetable
production is best achieved when
planted on a well-drained, sandy-
loam soil.

6. 3. Water supply and
quality. Water is the blood of
vegetable gardening. Water must
not only be enough for the plants
but it must also be clean and safe
for the plants to grow well.

7. 4. Crop and variety
selection. Select planting
materials such as seeds and
cuttings from a reputable
supplier.

8. 5. Climate/season.
Agriculture experts publish a
planting calendar that will serve as
a guide to know what types of
plants can be planted on each
season.
