Alpine strawberries are smallest but pack strong flavour. Modern varieties propagate through runners or seed. Seeds need cold treatment before sowing
Vegetables should be planted in May-June when temperatures exceed 75°F. Fruit trees need 12,000 square feet for 4-person family. Winter grains like rye thrive in cold climates. Root vegetables like potatoes should be planted in July-August
Research vegetables suitable for your local climate. Start with a few vegetables to avoid overwhelming yourself. Choose a location with at least 6 hours of full sun. Consider container gardening for easier movement but more frequent watering
Garden needs 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Soil should be well-draining and nutrient-rich. Avoid windy, flood-prone, or rocky locations
Use containers with drainage holes and indoor potting soil. Plants need 4-6 hours sunlight daily, fruits 8-10 hours. Keep soil moist but not damp, use misting or humidifier. Summer is best time, but can grow year-round
