The most important part to grow vegetable in garden is choosing the location to grow vegetables. So take plenty of time to examine the garden and then spend time preparing the soil.

 

To have a health vegetable growth, a sunny spot is needed and a well drained with good moisture retention soil is preferrable. And also try to avoid a windy spot which can cause dramatic decrease in cropping.

 

A majority of vegetables like neutral to slightly alkaline soil, so you can add lime whenever necessary.

 

It is also recommeneded to rotate the crops in a way that three or four beds are moved in sequence. Avoid growing the same or similiar crops in the same ground two years running. This helps to reduce pest problems and maintain fertility. Crops such as pea and bean have the ability to fix nitrogen from the air into a form that is available to plants. This make them a great crop to grow on a soil which can be used to grow nitrogen-like crop such as cabbage, cauliflower.
