My vegetable garden

My hobby is to grow my vegetable garden. It all began when my father made a vegetable garden in his home, but did not get good results (he lives in the country 60 km. from the city centre). I began to grow with him and to study different vegetables. After some time we install the drip irrigation system. This significantly improved the project.


It's four years since, now, I go every other week planning what vegetables we will plant, making seedlings and studing how make a organic and healthy vegetable garden. Sometimes I can’t go there and the vegetable garden suffers. The greatest threat are the slugs, they are really devourer,  but I can’t kill them.

Last summer I learned about “mulching”, a mulch is a layer of organic materials such a leaves or branches applied to the surface of soil. Mulching  improves fertility, health, keep the humedity and protects from the frosts and weeds, then  it’s no longer necessary that I spend long days weeding.

I enjoy and relax to grow and to learn about this, but sometimes I work excessive hours and hurt me the whole body. At times it’s very cold and I can’t to grow, this winter snowed a lot, many plants died. In the summer is really hot for many hours, so I can’t to grow. Now in spring is the better season for growing, It’s full of flowers and its a very important for pollinators as the bees.
