For a long time I had not planned to create a home garden in the backyard to my house. Just now I have started a home vegetable garden to produce vegetables that will meet my day to day vegetable needs. I have taken a little time to plan a layout for my home vegetable garden. First I have selected a place for my vegetable garden layout that will absorb sunlight directly. The sunlight is very essential for plants to prepare food for themselves with the help of water and air. I avoided shady areas which are not eligible for planting saplings.
I prepared the soil as per requirements for variety of vegetables. At first I planted the seeds in the open soil, but the yield was not to my expectation. Hence I changed my plan. Then I created raised beds of soil. This helps to hold the moisture for long time. I harvested more vegetables than the open soil method. I have created the raised bed vegetable garden by putting soil in a wooden container which is in a rectangular shape and is 3 feet wide. I created the layout of my garden in such a way to go and come easily into the garden.
Next thing is to pick up a good seeds to plant. The seeds should be clean and should be disease resistant varieties. I prepared the soil finely to sow the seeds and provide enough sunlight, so that the sapling comes out of the seeds. I have planted different kinds of vegetables to meet my family requirements. I sowed beans, eggplant, tomato, pumpkins, drumstick, chilies, etc... I watered each of the plants as per requirements for each kind. Then I could harvest the vegetables daily from my home garden. The gardening helps me to save a little money and get some light exercise too.
