Planting A Vegetables Garden-Mother Nature Grows Her Garden The Easy Way

Whether you are 1st time or an old hand at Planting A Vegetable Garden why not take a cue from Mother Nature? If you have ever been to a forest, meadow or a natural glade and have look a how things are growing you will notice there are no rows just one big mass of beautiful vegetation. This is the same way she has been planting here gardens the world over for thousands of years.

Why is she so successful and it all is seemingly effortlessly? Because she allows the forces of nature to do the work for her. The great thing about this is you can apply the same techniques and get the same great results. Why do all the back breaking work that gardeners do year after year? You know you don’t have to. It is a choice.

We gardener cause most of our problems by the methods we use. Why does nature never have to plow, till or spade it’s garden? When you hoe or turn the soil in any way you have disturbed the entire ecosystem of your soil. You are placing the top layer of soil down several levels and bringing the lower levels to the surface.

By doing this you have now given the weed seeds exactly what they needed. Also the level where the vegetable root are trying to gather nutrients you have replaced with the more eco dead soil from the top layer. Nature build her soil each layer at a time and NEVER disturbs these layers.

Most gardeners have a row of vegetables and then a big space. Nature doesn’t do it this way so why would you? That open space is good for two things.  An area for weeds to grow and a bare dirt area for the ground moisture to be pulled up by the sun. So now you got weeds and a big loss of  moisture.
