THE GARDEN FOR BEGINNERS. BASIC GUIDE FOR A SMOOTH START
For everyone and everything there is a beginning, better or worse, little by little you learn. Under this premise, what better way than to inaugurate this section for those who want to set up a garden but lack knowledge and experience. We provide you with the bases and you have to put the experience. Welcome to the beginner’s garden.
If you are new to organic gardens, welcome! Here is the ideal place to start. When our goal is to develop a garden on a small plot of land that we have never known what to do with it, or we have always thought of setting up a garden but we were lazy due to our inexperience, we have the solution here, contributing our grain of sand to That the beginnings (we have all been through it) are not very hard.
FROM THE SUPERMARKET TO THE KITCHEN OR FROM THE GARDEN TO THE KITCHEN?
Having a garden that is capable of providing us with all the vegetables that a family consumes is hard and laborious work, and we could even say complicated. It is difficult because over the years we have lost many work techniques that our grandparents knew and that served them to be served with fruits and vegetables throughout the year. What else could they do, there were no supermarkets in their rural life, and failure was paid for with hunger. Today, we work a garden for pleasure rather than necessity, which is not bad and that indicates that the bad times are over, with the assurance that if we fail, the supermarket will always be open to welcome us with its gigantic and colorful vegetables , all the same and perfect.
Having a garden in the 21st century brings us many things apart from having fresh food.

It is very important to have the months planned and divide them by tasks. Some will be more relaxed than others, such as the winter months, but there will be others in which we will have to increase the effort to guarantee the harvest, water and fertilize with greater intensity and protect our plants from pests and diseases.

A very important task when we have a garden is to provide organic or inorganic matter to our plants, so that they recover the nutrients that they have lost when producing the harvest. The soil, in most cases, is exhausted, the result of years and years of cultivation, so we must periodically contribute what is extracted to reach a balance.

One of the main drawbacks that we are going to find in our garden will be the pests and diseases that will come to it. We can be doing things well and even be about to pick the first vegetables, which in a matter of days a plague or disease can arrive and end all the effort deposited in our garden. To solve this problem, the main task is prevention and supervision to tackle the problem in its early stages. Once the problem is installed, the solution is more complicated, but it exists. Periodically we are uploading articles dedicated to the identification and treatment of the main pests and diseases, categorized by crops.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE GARDEN AND THE SOIL
The soil is another great conditioner of our crops. Unlike the climate, we have a good power to act against it, modifying its properties according to our requirements. A soil can be divided into different structures or nature, as well as its amount in organic matter, pH degree, salt content, depth, drainage, etc. Any of these variables we can act to a greater or lesser degree. This is the way in which you can change the options that the floor offers you.
