Square foot gardening has been on my radar only barely less time than any other sort of gardening. Until the last couple of years, I had not the time, space, or energy to plant a plant garden of any kind, square foot gardening or no. My gardening efforts were limited to a few decorative flowers in the foot-wide bed outside our front window. Latterly, the will to plant a vegetable garden has been a more feasible goal as I have more space and time for my house and garden. I've seen 1 or 2 square foot gardening examples, including my mom's; she's very experienced with vegetable gardens, has had success square foot gardening. I've been excited all winter to try it in my own garden.
The idea of square foot gardening appeals to me for lots of reasons, but maybe the most important in my mind is that a rather more compact plant garden equals less sq. feet of potential weed terrain. My gardens have not performed to their potential in the past, mostly because after I plant, I lose steam and the time I spend working in the garden just isn't really enough to keep up with the weeds. Square foot gardening, perhaps in a raised square foot garden, sounds amazing - less weed potential on 2 accounts that way!
The compact soil use in square foot gardening appeals to me for reasons beyond the weed factor. I like the notion of efficiency, and by planting somewhere around 16 different plant variations in a 16-square-foot space, square foot gardening gives us the apex of garden potency. Not only is garden potency a preference, it's cost-effective. I will not need as much peat moss or other garden soil prepping products if I'm only planning to grow veg in a little area. Now the only problem will be what to do with the additional garden space! I am thinking a raspberry bush - a delectable square foot gardening bonus.
Last although not least on the square foot gardening appeal list is the aesthetic appeal. I did a quick online search to test out some square foot gardening and was stunned to find how sharp the beds look! My granny's vegetable garden was amazing, however it was not much to have a look at - heaps of dirt with peas and carrots and other vegetable varieties interspersed. Square foot gardening can be planned round the plant variety you need AND decorative price. There are plans online for endless styles, including vegetable gardens for youngsters, square foot gardens based on a recipe, and some that just look exotic. I plan to do my square foot gardening in the back yard, but it's pretty inspiring to think that I could put it in the front without compromising on style.
Between the Net and my ma the garden genius, I reckon I deserve to be a guru on square foot gardening when I can get my man to build some raised garden beds for our soon-to-be- square foot garden. I can't wait to choose my vegetable and classy combination and get my square foot gardening plant on!
