When you should plant different vegetables

Food prices are rising, and the food crisis is spreading around the world. Underdeveloped, less industrialized countries are already suffering from the effects of the current food crisis. Rising prices are also beginning to affect consumers in the Australia. To provide your family with a buffer against the unavailability of affordable food, or fresh produce, you need to plants and garden now!

Gardening - not just a hobby

Gardening has been one of the fastest growing hobbies in the Australia for many years. Thousands of new gadgets, tools and products flooded the market making gardening easier than ever. For many families, starting a garden in the kitchen - a fruit and vegetable garden - is more important than ever, with the possibility of the price of fresh produce being out of reach.

During World War II, families were called upon to plant Victory Gardens. These gardens supported families as large-scale farming supported soldiers. Today, the movement to plant victory gardens has revived.

Now is the time to plant

Unless you live in the Melbourne Australia, you can grow year-round plants in your yard or garden. It makes a good time to start a garden as early as spring or autumn in mid-summer or mid-winter. Work such as soil preparation, plant selection and starting and purchase of equipment will take one or two months. If you start planning now, you will see your first harvest in a few months. Following are some of the plants you can expect to harvest in a month or two after your garden has been categorized by season. (This list is based on gardening in temperate climates.)

·         Planted in mid-summer: beans, beets, radishes, oats, turnips

·         Autumn planting: lettuce, spinach, potatoes, turnips, onions, green onions, artichokes

·         Winter planting: peas, rhubarb, asparagus, beets, celery, onions

·         Spring planting: squash (winter and summer), pumpkin, tomatoes, eggplant, lettuce, spinach, sweet corn, chard, mustard greens, runner beans, fennel

No matter what time of year you plant your garden, you can always get plenty of crops. Growing your own garden will give you peace of mind if food prices seem out of your reach.

You don’t have to go outside to buy the plants, as you can buy them online. There are many websites that are selling plants online to their potential plant lovers. All you need is to check out the temperature of your local area and the temperature the plant can bear before buying.
