Vegetable Gardening

asked:


Is it going to hurt to use the same dirt that you use to plant flowers, to use in a vegetable garden?

I am interested in nutitional veggies, not perfect looking tastless ones. I used a well know flower and veggie plant food last year (Miracle Grow) makes nice flowers.The fruit did not taste sweet and the skins were thick and tough. I have added more garden soil and composted manure this year but I want something more to boost the crop in quantity and taste. Any suggestions? Or should that be enough? I am looking for a home made organic fertilizer, any tried and true recipes? I am planning on sharing what ever grows with family and neighbors. so I am hoping for a bumper crop. I am growing lots of tomatos,cucumbers, some watermelon,carrots,yellow beans,radishes,chives,parsley..oh yes flowers lots. I wanted more but ran out of garden darn!
I am looking for a market brand organic liquid or powder veggie food. I will try the others in different parts of my garden and experiment. I really want lots to harvest I love fresh plentiful veggies!
I have started composting my veggie peels,leaves, fruit,grass clippings,egg shells,coffee grinds,tea leaves,but for now I need something else.

I have no experience building things, but think it would be pretty easy to make a 4ft x 12ft raised bed for my vegetable garden. I want it about 18″ deep. Any blueprints or ideas out there? I don’t have a drill and can have Home Depot cut the wood to size for me. Thanks!!

I am planning to build my own vegetable garden box for the first time. Looking for ideas. I am planning to use a area facing north (plenty of morning sunlight). Area would be 4ft long x 2ft wide. Any suggestions?
Please give me all ideas and tips if you have built your own before (type of wood, height, dimensions, etc.) I welcome any suggestions!

We have a large garden away from the house but I want to plant a few things close. What would you suggest? Do you have kitchen vegetable garden? What do you plant in your “close to the house” garden?

I want to start a vegetable garden but I am not sure if I need to have a raised bed or if I can just plant my vegetables in the ground with good soil.

Can I successfully grow a vegetable garden in a backyard like this?

There are some sunny areas, and some shaded areas. The space that where a garden would fit well is kind of in between.
