If you are limited on space in your garden, high yield vegetable varieties will provide the highest yielding food per square inch. Tomato plants are the most prolific, especially cherry and grape varieties. Other prolific vegetables include beans and peas, blueberries, cucumbers, and leaf lettuce. To maximize space, you might consider planting high-yield vegetables in triangles. In some cases, this can be beneficial if you have a smaller space.

Intercropping multiple vegetables at once is a great way of maximising your yields. By doing this, you can ensure continuous harvests through the entire season. While intercropping may be the best, you can plant multiple vegetables at one time in different patterns such as row crops or noncompeting variety. You can have both the best and worst of both worlds. High yield vegetables produce more food per sqft than their noncompeting cousins.

FAQ

Can I grow fruit tree in a pot?

Yes! Yes! You should make sure that your pot has drainage holes to keep excess moisture from rotting the tree. Also ensure that the pot is large enough to accommodate the root ball. This will protect the tree from being stressed.


Which seeds should I start indoors and which ones should I avoid?

A tomato seed is the best for indoor gardening. Tomatoes grow quickly and bear good fruit all year. You should be cautious when putting tomatoes into pots. You should not plant tomatoes too soon. The soil can dry out, and the roots could rot. You should also be aware of diseases like bacterial Wilt that can quickly kill your plants.


How many hours of light does a plant need?

It depends on which plant it is. Some plants require 12 hours of direct sunshine per day. Others prefer 8 hours in indirect sunlight. Most vegetables require 10 hours direct sunlight in a 24-hour period.


How much space do vegetable gardens need?

The rule of thumb is to use 1/2 pound seed per square foot. For example, if you have a 10 foot by 10 foot area (3 meters by three meters), 100 pounds of seeds will be required.


How can I tell what kind of soil is mine?

You can tell by looking at the color of the dirt. You will find more organic matter in darker soils that those of lighter colors. Soil testing is another option. These tests assess the soil's nutritional content.


What is the difference in hydroponics and aquaponics?

Hydroponic gardening uses nutrient-rich water instead of soil to feed plants. Aquaponics combines fish tanks with plants to create a self-sufficient ecosystem. It's almost like having a farm right at home.


When should you plant herbs?

Spring should be when the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees F. They should be in full sun to get the best results. For basil indoors, plant seedlings in potting mix-filled pots and let them grow until they produce leaves. When plants are growing, place them in bright indirect lighting. After approximately three weeks, transplant them into individual containers. Continue to water them as needed.
