Nowadays many people realize kitchen gardening helps reduce their carbon emissions (排放) and save them hard-earned cash and choose to grow their own food.【小题1】

Select your garden location. You don’t need a plot of land to grow your own food. You can grow inside or outside.【小题2】But wherever you’re planting, what you need is good sun exposure. Many plants, especially fruit trees, require six hours of full sun during the day.

Select your plants. After that, you’re ready to choose which plants will work best for your garden. If you’ve got a yard, you have your choice of beans, root vegetables, fruit trees, berries, and herbs.【小题3】Consider your container size when choosing your plants. A limited space garden can support peppers, herbs, and greens grown in small containers. Beans and tomatoes, on the other hand, need containers at least two feet in diameter.

Choose good soil. If your yard garden has quality soil, you can plant food in it. Otherwise, you may choose purchased soil in raised beds. You’ll see a difference when using high-end organic soil.

【小题4】Instead of feeding your plants a little water all the time, deep and infrequent watering encourages root growth. However, if you live in a particularly hot climate, you may still have to water up to twice daily if the top two inches of soil are dry.

Enjoy your harvest. Nothing tastes better than the food you grew yourself, and after all your hard work gardening, you deserve a celebration.【小题5】Maybe you’ll inspire another gardener to take up the tool.
