Vegetable Garden What Should I Do To Prepare My Vegetable Garden For Planting?

What should I do to prepare my vegetable garden for planting? - vegetable garden

I am new in this garden and you want a garden for vegetables and fruits of summer to late autumn. I know that each plant its own requirements, the pH has value. As on the ground for everything that I wanted to prepare for work? Was there a fertilizer I should use for a wide range of vegetables to be good? I live in northern Ohio. When should pave the way? When should I plant? Shall I a second time during the season to make sure I have vegetables in the fall? What should I plant? The area that I plant is approximately 15 X 20 meters

I'm not sure what the earth is similar in your area. if the sand, you can add peat. If clay, probably of compost and gypsum.

Examine each plant for the preferred pH range pH and adjust with lime or sulfur (up or down, respectively). A soil test well would be an excellent idea.

Visit a local garden center with some of their land could be can be a good idea, advice on what to add.

Your question is good with lots of information, but I can not help much. Sorry!

Good gardening!

If'n their lands were not frozen OSU to do a soil test

If you have sulfur in their water, the chances you will need a bit of lime

Most vegetables like a pH of 6.5 to 7.0

Until now. Then in the spring, until it again.
15 x 20 is small enough for a garden, it will be confined to your favorite vegetables.
Since you're new to this, I recommend the tomato, peppers and potatoes. They are easy to grow.
Because it is a small area, I recommend using landscape fabric for weed control.
Do not worry about the fertility of the soil. Since this is a new garden ... fertile. You need to be feared just that after planting for 5 years or more.
But if you really use peat, compost or cow manure added. Be improved if the soil is clay.
