Plans for Home Garden

Plans for Home Garden Planning a home vegetable garden can be tricky. Gardening is a science, after all! This article discusses the steps involved in planning a Square Foot Garden, which differ in several important ways from the steps involved in planning a row-based garden.Even within minimum space you can have a colorful garden, provided you have a good design plan. 
 
   Have you heard of the concept of vertical gardening? This is considered as a solution to bring concrete courtyards and bleak buildings to life by planting plants vertically on the walls. Many government and non-governmental organizations accept this concept, as vertical gardening brings greenery into the city and the plants cleanse the air. The first step in planning a garden is probably determining what kind of garden you would like to have. Gardens range in style and purpose so it is important to have a clear idea of the kind of garden you are trying to grow. Some main types of residential gardens include: flower gardens, vegetable gardens, zen gardens, herb gardens and formal gardens. Some of these are best suited to specific climates and locations. In order to make a good decision about the kind of garden you want to have it is important to know a few things about the space your garden is going to be taking up and the weather conditions that may help or hinder your garden’s growth.The first step is to select the vegetables you would like to grow, considering how much space you have available in your vegetable garden. Multiply the length of your garden bed by the width to calculate the available planting squares. The "available squares" must not be less than the squares required by the vegetables you select to grow.
