Vegetable Garden (Backside of My Home)
This is my first instructable :)
Backside of my home, I have some empty land so I decided to make it as vegetable garden.
Supplies
1. Land
2. Cow dung or any other organic fertilizers
3. Tractor (for plowing) or spade instrument.
4. Twine thread
5. Wire mess (for making fence)
6. Wooden sticks (for supporting wire mess )
7. Seeds collected from nature or from shops
Fertilize the Land/soil With Organic Waste and Plow It
I have cow dung stored in my farm and I decided to add this to the soil because this will be super powerful fertilizer for the soil.
You can spread any organic fertilizer (in my case, I am using the cow dung that has been stored for months) evenly over the soil and plough it.
Clean the Land As Much As Possible
Remove the stones and grasses as much as possible to make the land clean.
Make the Ridges...
Use the spade instrument to make the ridges as shown in the picture.
Make the Fence to Desired Length(12m) and Breath(7m)
In my case, I am using one side of my home as fence and for rest of the three sides, I am using wire mess.
1. Dig many larger pits and place the wooden sticks and seal it with the soil as shown in the picture. These wooden sticks will be used for supporting the wire mess.
2. Make the fence using the wire mess. Tie the wire mess along with the wooden sticks using the twine thread.
Collect the Seeds
Collect the seeds from nature as much as possible.
Every year, I use to collect the seeds and store the seeds in polythene covers.
Irrigate or Supply Water
Now supply water to the land and sow the seeds.
Finally, Garden Is Done !!!
We need to wait for some days for the seeds to turn into plants ...
