1. Start with easy-to-grow vegetables such as radishes, lettuce, swiss chard, and green beans.
2. Select an area for your garden that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
3. Prepare the soil with compost or manure to provide nutrients for the plants to grow.
4. Plant your vegetables in well drained soil and keep them evenly watered.
5. Mulch your garden to help retain moisture and control weeds.
6. Feed your plants regularly with a liquid fertilizer in order to provide necessary nutrients.
7. Practice crop rotation every 2-3 years to help prevent disease and pests from taking over your garden.
8. Monitor your plants closely for any signs of insects or disease and take action promptly if needed.
