Genius Garden Tips to Start in Spring:

If you've always wanted a garden but haven't been able to commit because of time or space, I'm here to help with 10 genius tips to get started on your own garden bed this spring:

Plant a garden

Planting a garden is a great way to grow your own food. You can plant all kinds of vegetables, fruits, and herbs in your garden! But you don't have to do it alone! If you're looking for some inspiration or need help figuring out what types of plants will work best in your area, experts from around the web have got you covered.

Choose plants that require less water

You can save time, money, and water by choosing plants that require less water. When you're planting your garden, consider using drought-tolerant plants or native species. They'll be much more likely to survive in your climate and also require less maintenance over time. If you want to grow something exotic but don't want it taking over your yard, look for small varieties like bonsai trees (Japanese maple) or dwarf fruit trees (apricot). Hardy perennials like lavender and roses will also do well in most climates--they'll come back year after year without much effort on your part!

Plant vegetables you know and love

When you're just starting out, it's important to choose vegetables that you enjoy eating. You'll be more likely to eat them if they're fresh from your garden and ready-to-eat.

Choosing the right vegetable for your garden is also important. If it doesn't grow well in your area or climate, then it's only going to give up on life after a few weeks of struggling--and then what will happen? You won't have any new plants growing! That's no good at all!

Instead of planting something exotic that could fail miserably (and get ugly), try planting some familiar favorites: tomatoes and peppers are always good choices because they grow easily and produce tasty fruits when they reach maturity; carrots are another favorite because they're crunchy; broccoli has an amazing flavor when eaten raw (but don't forget about cooking!).

Plant more fruit trees and bushes

Fruit trees and bushes are an easy way to add a bit of color, fragrance and fruit to your garden. They're also good for the environment because they require little maintenance, which means less work for you! Fruit trees can be used both for food and as decorations around the house. They're also great investments--they'll provide years of enjoyment while continuing to produce fruit long after other plants have died off or stopped producing new growth. Fruit trees come in many varieties: apple, pear, cherry tree etc., so there's sure to be one that suits your needs perfectly!

Use the right mulch.

Mulch can be used to control weeds, keep soil moist, insulate plants in cold weather and prevent soil compaction. It also protects plants from pests by hiding them from sight. Mulching with a thick layer of organic matter such as compost or bark is ideal because it will break down over time to become part of your garden's soil structure.

Create a garden bed in an unused area of your yard.

If you have an unused area of your yard, turn it into a garden bed. You'll need to make sure that your soil will drain well and get plenty of sun. If you don't have enough space for a large vegetable patch, consider making raised beds instead.

Use raised beds.

Raised beds are a great way to get your hands dirty and grow your own food. The raised bed provides a level of insulation from extreme temperatures, so you can plant earlier in the year than you would otherwise be able to. Plus, it makes it easier for you to reach into the soil and harvest your vegetables without having to bend over too much--a bonus if you have back pain or arthritis!

If you don't want the hassle of building them yourself (or just don't have enough time), there are plenty of pre-made options available online or at garden centers near where you live.

Harvest vegetables left on the vine to encourage new growth.

Harvesting vegetables left on the vine can encourage new growth. When you harvest a vegetable, it creates an empty space in the garden that allows for other plants to grow. This is called succession planting and it's a great way to extend your harvest all season long!

Improve the soil with compost and cover crops for healthier plants.

Composting is a way to improve soil quality, and it's easy! All you need is some leaves, grass clippings and food scraps. After mixing them together in a pile (it should be about as big as your garden), let it sit for several months until it turns into rich compost. Then use this compost on your plants or give it away to someone who can use it. You can even make compost indoors with worms if you don't have space outside!

Cover crops are another great way to improve soil health by adding nutrients back into the soil after harvesting crops like tomatoes or carrots that took nutrients out of the ground when they were growing. Cover crops include things like wheatgrass or rye grasses which grow quickly during springtime so they help prevent erosion while also providing extra nutrients for next year's garden crop by trapping nitrogen from air pollution caused by cars driving around town all day long--this makes them really good at reducing smog levels too!

These tips will help you get started on your own garden.

• Start small, with a small garden bed. You don't need to have a massive space for your garden. Even if you live in an apartment, there are still ways to grow your own vegetables and flowers! If you have access to the ground outside of your building, consider planting some herbs and tomatoes there.
• Plant your garden in a sunny area with good drainage so that it doesn't get too soggy or muddy when it rains (which is most of the time here).
• Watering should be done regularly--once every few days during hot summer months will suffice; less often during cooler seasons--but never let the soil dry out completely before watering again!

Gardening may not be the most popular pastime this time of year, but it's a fun and relaxing hobby that could pay off big. It can save you money by enabling you to harvest veggies and flowers that you would normally have to buy, or simply give you fresh organic food in your own backyard.

I hope these tips will inspire you to get started on your own garden! The best thing about gardening is that it's fun and easy, no matter what your skill level. You can have a beautiful yard by simply following these tips, so why not give it a try?

Until next time,
