L/O/G/O Garden Considerations

Ask yourself What do I want to plant? How big should my garden be? Where should I put my garden?

What to Plant Select vegetables and the amount to plant by looking forward to harvest and how you will use the vegetables.

Garden Size Family size Amount of vegetables you need (or want) Will you preserve or use most of your vegetables fresh? Available time and equipment Physical ability

Garden Location Close to the house Full sun Near a water supply Well-drained

L/O/G/O The Basics

What do plants need? H 2 O Light Minerals

Water Water is the major constituent of plant tissue. Medium in which cell metabolic processes occur. Medium for transport between cells in plant tissues and organs.

Light Light is required for photosynthesis. Day length (actually length of the dark period) is important for some plants. Long-day plants –Spinach, Chinese cabbage, some radishes Day-neutral plants –Tomatoes, squash, beans

Minerals Besides water, soil is the main source of plant nutrients. Excessive amounts –  toxicity Deficiency –  poor and/or abnormal growth

Minerals Essential elements –1. Required for complete life cycle [seed to seed] –2. Lack causes a particular symptom –3. Re-introduction relieves symptom –4. Has a known chemical function within plant

Macronutrients Present in “large” quantities [% vs. ppm] –Nitrogen – N – 2-6% –Phosphorus – P – % –Potassium – K – 2-6% –Calcium – Ca – % –Magnesium – Mg – % –Sulfur – S – %

Micronutrients Manganese – Mn – ppm Iron – Fe – ppm Chlorine – Cl – 10 ppm Copper – Cu – 2-5 ppm Boron – B – Zinc – Zn – Molybdenum – Mo – 0.01 ppm  ppm = parts per million  1 mg/L = 10,000 ppm
