Vegetable Garden Layout
Vegetable Garden Layout
- There is a lot to
take into consideration when planning for a vegetable garden. After the
location is chosen and the kinds of vegetables to be planted are
decided upon, the most important consideration of all is the vegetable
garden layout.
The vegetable garden layout is the one part that is going to make or
break the success of the garden. If a garden layout is not properly
planned out, all of the fertilizer and all of the sun will not
guarantee success. It is in conjunction with all of the other factors
that the layout comes into play.
The taller the crop, the furthest to the north it needs to be in the
garden layout. Tall cops such as beans, peas and corn should be on the
north side. Stair stepping down is what should be seen when looking
south.
Medium sized vegetable plants need to go in the middle. These include
tomatoes, peppers, squash. Take into consideration that with these
vegetables, they will grow out as well as up so allow for proper
spacing of the plants in the vegetable garden layout.
At the southern side of the vegetable garden, it is best to plant the
low growing vegetables. Included in this category are radishes, beets,
carrots and lettuce.
With the right vegetable garden layout, the vegetable garden can be
almost guaranteed success when incorporating with the other necessities
that make a garden produce well.
