Gardening can be a great way to relieve stress and spruce up your home. However, many people aren’t sure where to begin when they want to start their own garden at home, and can make mistakes that kill all of their plants. To make sure this doesn’t happen to you, read on to find out how to start your garden right!

Your plants need to adapt and must be gradually introduced to changes in temperature or condition. Place them outdoors in the sun for about an hour or two on the first day. Then over a weeks time, slightly increase their time outside. After a week’s time, the plants should be fine staying outside.

A trick to help measure in the garden is to take one of the long handled garden tools like a shovel and mark on its handle using a tape measure. Using a permanent marker, mark out the feet and inches on its handle and when specific distance is required in planing, have a handy measuring device is close at hand.

Choose plants and flowers that complement the colors of your home. Flowers that are pink or fuchsia, may go very well with your burgundy shudders. Tying in the colors of plants and flowers that you choose to harmonize with your house, will save you a lot of time at the garden center by simplifying your plant choices.

Don’t forget to fertilize your garden! Water isn’t enough when it comes to growing delicious, healthy vegetables. Choose the fertilizer that you best like. Some people prefer manure, while others can’t get around the thought of it. There are many fertilizer options available at your local gardening store, so there is certainly, a right one for you.

Remember to mulch before the first freeze. Spread compost or shredded leaves around the garden, mulching under shrubs, hedges, roses, and on top of the crown of any tender perennials. A layer of compost spread on bare ground will help to protect any bulbs, corms or plant roots. By springtime, this compost will have been taken into the ground by worms, and your soil will be full of nutrition, ready for new planting.

Try planting a ‘one-color’ garden bed. While this takes quite a bit of work, due to the limitations of the color palette, it can create a very striking visual. The emphasis is placed more on shape and structure, and it is especially helpful in a small garden, as it makes the area appear much larger. Remember that ‘one-color’ doesn’t mean a single shade. Use all shades in the color palette. For example a blue garden can feature flowers in shades of blue, purple and mauve.

If you live in the city, you can still reap the benefits of organic gardening through container gardening. Herbs especially will thrive in indoor pots, as long as they are large enough. Container gardening can be easier than outdoor gardening when going organic, as there is less risk of exposure to insect pests or weeds.

Add aspirin to your plants to help them fight sickness. Three aspirins per four gallons of water will help keep your plants healthy. Spray the plants with the aspirin water to assist plants in battling disease. Spraying should be one time every three weeks.

While gardening can be a touchy subject, all you need is the proper education on how to make it turn out right. If you want to start a garden in your home, you need only to follow the tips in this article, and soon you’ll have a lovely arrangement of plants growing in your yard!
