How to plan a plot in the country?

13.03.2024 news

Despite the fact that people in modern society live in apartments, sooner or later they are "pulled to the ground." This may be a sudden love of homemade cacti and indoor flowers, or it may be an unexpected desire to engage in growing vegetables on a plot of a country house.

If everything is clear with the first, then the second requires more effort. And here it may come to mind not the implementation of the garden in the “old fashioned way”, but the desire to go in a relatively new direction - the “lazy garden”. Such a garden is characterized by innovation and numerous ways to care for seedlings.

With proper implementation of the plot, plants will not need frequent intervention, only regular watering and annual improvement of places for new seedlings.

What is needed for this?

A few hundred square meters of land (from 3 to 5);
Humus (with the expectation that it would be enough for the beds);
Polyethylene film (for closing the greenhouse);
Tools: rake, shovel, hammer, nails, saw;
Boards, from 2 cm thick;
Seedlings or seeds for planting.

Important!

The main thing to remember here is: the more ergonomic the space at the beginning is, the more “lazy” the new garden will be.

And the more they will delight seedlings with a good harvest. Therefore, it is worthwhile to patiently approach the organization so that then the garden will be for relaxation, and not for constant work on it.

First, the installation of frames for future beds is carried out.

On a note!

It is not necessary to make beds of the usual rectangular appearance, you can choose any shape, for example, a square, a triangle or a rhombus.

This will help to avoid the frequent process of hilling the beds. With this design, the gardener will get rid of this activity forever;

Now, with an even layer, you need to lay the humus on the bottom and close it with polyethylene for a week.

During this time, a natural process should occur, which will further contribute to the growth of plants. As a natural humus, you can use manure, potato tops or leaves of other cultivated plants;

Fresh soil or black soil can also be flavored with additives: vitamins and minerals.

Nutrients can be purchased at the store in the form of granules.

On a note!

We fill the earth with prepared structures, having previously removed polyethylene. Evenly and without lumps, you need to distribute it over the entire area and to the very edges.

Now it remains to plant seedlings and the lazy garden is ready.

How to distribute seedlings in beds?

Here, too, there is a little wisdom, following which you can avoid unnecessary trouble with seedlings. There is a table of crop neighborhoods that helps determine the extent to which plants get along with each other and help their neighbor grow.

What to do so that the site is not empty?

If the garden plot is empty, it is also worth taking care of in advance. The land is fed not only fertilizer, but also some plants.

Therefore, you should not leave the place empty, but it is better to plant it with dill or radish. Such a little trick will help fertilize and prepare the soil.
