    Preparation of soil is important for a successful vegetable garden. Early spring is the time to start by testing the soil to determine nutrient levels and pH, and then removing grass, tilling, breaking up clumps, and adding amendments like manure, compost, and lime. Properly preparing soil makes it fertile, well-draining, and able to provide air and moisture for healthy plant roots.

    PREPARATION OF SOIL

     Soil preparation is one of the most


    important steps to having a
    successful vegetable garden. The
    best garden soil is fertile, well
    drained yet retains moisture, and
    gets enough air circulation which is
    needed for healthy roots.
     Early spring is the time to start
    preparing your soil. Starting
    with soil testing will tell you how
    much nitrogen, phosphorus,
    potassium you have in your soil and
    what the pH (a measure of acidity
    and alkalinity) is. From these results
    you can tell what  soil amendments
    are needed for the best plant growth.
    When starting a new garden site
     these are the steps to follow:

    *Remove any grass.

    *Plough, spade or rot till the area

    *Break down any large clumps

    *Apply manure or compost and soil


    amendments.

    *Add in lime

    *Rake the bed.
