How to start a new organic garden

Planting and maintaining in a organic garden is an important way to make money or spending good time in the garden. Though many of the steps are same for making organic garden and the starting any types of garden, some steps are different. I have organic garden in front of my house where I have used some steps to make it easily:

Setting the goal: Before digging the soil and putting the plants there, one should select the main goal of him about the gardening. One may want to make a garden of vegetables or want to plant fruits there. He should select the main planning of the garden because it is the most important thing that one should apply for doing a new garden. The goal should be related to realistic things because he should start with something that is small and more manageable.

Site selection: After selecting the goal, one should select the area that is perfect for growing the plants. He should select the place if the place gets at least 6 hours of sun in a day. The drain of the place should be kept well during in the rainy season. He should select the land after getting a test of the soil of that land. If everything of the land is ok, then he can select the land for the garden.

Amend the soil: Good soil can make a good garden. One can amend the soil in a new bed by adding compost and plenty of it. He can buy the compost in bulk and can deliver them to his home or buy it in the bags at home.

Plant selection and planting: One can plant the seeds in the organic garden easily. If anyone is starting the garden early in the season, he can select the organic seeds to plant there. He should check out if there is any insect or nay other problem in the seeds. After selecting the plants he should dig the soil by using the digging tools and give fertilisers in it and finally he can plant the seeds there.
