What are the best edible plants to grow?

Most people blame themselves, but fail to know much about the soil they are trying to grow in. The pH of the soil measures acidity to alkalinity and most soils, tend to be too acidic and require the addition of lime. Your local University or County extension service can direct you to some expertise. Don't forget to compost all you can to feed soil as chemicals end up creating problems that rob your soil of natural materials.

Swiss Chard is an easy one and has a very, very, long season.

what veggies do you purchase at the grocery store? is there a counter part that suits your growing condotions? how much space do you have for a garden? what do you want to grow? do you plan on home canning the garden produce? what type of garden suits you- containers? in ground? raised beds? hydroponic? there are styles of veggies that will do well for each method.

see les h. comment above regarding soil testing.

Lettuces, spinach, green beans, radishes, are all super easy from seed. Follow instructions on the package are growing area, called zones. You will want to "lightly water" your rows of seeds. The package will give you a "germination" date--or when you will start to see leaves popping through the soil. Then for the first week or two, water as needed--don't let the soil get too wet, just enough to give them a drink.

Also, I use an organic fertilizer. Mine is liquid, and I mix 2 ounces per gallon of water. Then sprinkle over the plants just like you are watering. If you have leftovers, I save mine in the garage out of pets or children's reach. I didn't use to be into organic, but after using miracle grow, we weren't seeing results in larger fruits and veggies. They recommended a particular fertilizer, and I haven't change for the past several years.

Also, if you like tomatoes, but just aren't sure, try a cherry tomato!! They grow like crazy and you will be greatly rewarded!!

Most everything but beans (I grow bush greens beans, meaning they are low to the ground and grow 15-18" tall, as opposed to pole beans, that requiring staking or something for them to grow up on) you can plant in a pot or a raised bed or directly into freshly dug up soil.

Good of luck on your spring/summer adventure!!
