Remember when we helped you perfectly prep your garden<\/a> for spring? Of course, you do! Now that you\u2019ve worked the soil and created a compost (you have, right?), it\u2019s time to start planting.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Plant the Seeds<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

Do you know what fruits and veggies will grow best in our area<\/a>? Spring in Indiana means\nit\u2019s time for cauliflower, eggplant, broccoli, and brussels sprouts.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

But when exactly should you plant? If you\u2019re\nreally feeling lost, most seed packets will tell you the ideal timeline for\nplanting.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Add Water<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

The key to a lush garden is knowing when to (and\nwhen not to) water. Too much water could lead to root rot<\/a>, and not watering enough\nwill dry out the plants. The best time to water is in the morning when the\nground is still cool, so there\u2019s plenty of time for the plants to dry. Aim for\nthe base of the plant to get right to the roots.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Create Space<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

Give\nthe seeds enough space to comfortably grow. If seedlings start growing too\nclose, they will crowd each other out and won\u2019t grow as high. Find the right distance for your\nplants<\/a> and\nmeasure them out with a yardstick. Pull out any stray seeds to prevent growing\nin the gaps.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Fertilize<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

After all the seeds are ready, add fertilizer to\nnurture the plants. If you don\u2019t want to use store-bought fertilizer, there are\nplenty of great ways to Haz lo tuyo<\/a> with salt, coffee\ngrounds, and eggshells.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Feeding your family from the backyard is easier\nthan it seems. Keep following our gardening series for more ways to help your plants\nthrive. Good luck\u2014and be sure to share pictures of your garden-planting\nprowess!<\/p>\n<\/div>
