Some Gardening Tips
1. Start Small: Begin with easy plants like herbs or tomatoes to learn the basics.
2. Know Your Soil: Test soil pH, add compost, and improve soil health for better plant growth.
3. Water Wisely: Water roots in the morning or late afternoon to reduce evaporation.
4. Sunlight Matters: Ensure plants get 6-8 hours of sunlight daily; choose sunny spots for planting.
5. Rotate Your Crops: Change planting locations yearly to prevent soil depletion and reduce pests.
