Tips on Growing Vegetables From Seed in the Home Garden

Posted by admin on May 22, 2011

From our extensive experience, it takes some time to figure out what, when, and how to grow vegetable seeds in the home garden. Often seeds need other conditions, soil, or timing.

• For us, one in ten kinds of seeds works out great in our garden. Considering seeds usually cost $1-3 per packet, it will be worth finding out which work best.
• It is very helpful to talk to neighbors to find out what has and hasn’t worked from them. It is also very useful to know what worked for people they know in the area.
• If there are gardening books to buy about your area, or to check out from the library, it can be very useful reading up. Over recent decades there are likely gardeners who want to help and share their knowledge.
• Happy gardening!
