There are a number of vegetable gardening tips that can help make gardening easier and a better experience. But, because all gardens are not the same, not every vegetable gardening tips will apply to all gardeners.

Implementing flowers and herbs with vegetables, can add interest, variety and health to your vegetable garden. Flowers or herbs that have strong odors, for instance marigolds and garlic, are known to repel pests and help prevent disease. Some vegetables will create exceptional borders and can be used for ornamental purposes.

Easy Maintenance and Soil Improvement

Other tips to help with your vegetable garden include the use of corn stalks or sunflowers as interesting, biodegradable poles for beans to climb on. Providing a ladder for vine-growing plants, such as pumpkins, to grow on provides the same effect. Just use the rungs and sides of the ladder as support for the vines. Let the pumpkins grow on the steps for further support.

If you have any branches lying around, these can make a good, inexpensive vegetable gardening tool. Select the branches that are the strongest and use them for staking up your climbing or bushing plants. Place the branches in the ground and use pantyhose to tie the plants. This will prevent damage to the plants. Pantyhose are very pliable and will stretch as the plant grows.

Here are a few other interesting vegetable gardening tips to consider for improving the soil and increasing production. Planting onions throughout the garden helps soil stay loose and keep weeds out. Many crops will grow better when you use large leafy plants to provide ‘mulch’. This also aids in retaining soil moisture.

A way to encourage larger yields and fertilize the soil is to help the production of nitrogen. One way is to plant alfalfa grass or clover prior to each garden season. Then turn these plants into the ground before blooming to use as ‘green manure’ for healthier soil.

There are many suggestions for keeping your plants properly watered. One easy way to do this is to use plastic gallon-sized jugs or two-liter bottles. This is a also a good way to recycle. Just poke some holes around the bottom of the empty container and bury it in the ground up to the bottle neck. These should be placed near the plants. The water will then be slowly released into the ground. This will provide an appropriate amount of moisture to plants. Keep an eye on the water levels and refill as needed.

Another tip for watering; don’t water at night in hot or humid weather. The moisture and humidity may combine with the high temperatures to promote plant diseases. This may happen when water gathers at the roots or the foliage is allowed to become excessively wet and causing diseases to spread.

有幾個(gè)蔬菜種植的小竅門可以使你的園藝更容易，并獲得更好的體驗(yàn)�？墒羌热幻考业幕▓@各不相同，蔬菜園藝的竅門自然也就不可能適于所有的花園。

將鮮花、草藥和蔬菜一起種，能增加你的興趣、使作物品種多樣，還能讓花園中的蔬菜長(zhǎng)得更健康。鮮花和草藥有很強(qiáng)烈的氣味，如金盞菊和大蒜，有驅(qū)趕害蟲預(yù)防疾病的功效。一些蔬菜能長(zhǎng)成特別的花壇，可以作為裝飾用途。

易于維護(hù)改良土壤

其它能幫助你蔬菜園藝的竅門包括，讓豆子攀爬玉米秸和向日葵，它們樣子有趣，還能生物降解。用梯子供蔓生蔬菜，如南瓜，在上面生長(zhǎng)、攀緣，能起到同樣的效果；就用梯級(jí)或梯子的側(cè)面作為藤蔓的支撐物，讓南瓜在梯級(jí)上生長(zhǎng)，獲得支撐。

如果你的花園里有樹枝，可以用它們做成好用、便宜的蔬菜園藝工具。選出最結(jié)實(shí)的樹枝，用它們作樁，撐起你的攀緣植物或灌木。把樹枝叉到地里，用襪褲來系植物。這樣就能避免損傷植物，因?yàn)橐m褲容易拉伸，能隨著植物生長(zhǎng)拉長(zhǎng)。

還有幾個(gè)有趣的蔬菜園藝竅門能改善土壤，增加產(chǎn)量。在花園里種滿蔥頭，能使土壤松軟，不長(zhǎng)野草。如果你用大葉植物當(dāng)作“覆蓋物”，許多作物都能長(zhǎng)得更好；這也能起到保持土壤潮濕的作用。

一種增加產(chǎn)量肥沃土壤的方法，就是幫助氮肥的產(chǎn)生。有一種辦法就是在每年園藝季節(jié)開始前種苜�；蛉�葉草，并在它們開花前，把其埋入土里用作“農(nóng)家肥”來給土壤增加營(yíng)養(yǎng)。

還有許多給植物適當(dāng)澆水的建議。一種簡(jiǎn)便的方法就是用一加侖大小的塑料罐子或兩升大小的瓶子；這也是一種很好的循環(huán)利用。在空罐子底下扎幾個(gè)洞，把它埋到土里，齊瓶頸深，靠近植物。罐子中的水就能慢慢地滲到地里，給植物保持了合適的濕度。注意看著罐中的水位，需要的時(shí)候再把它注滿。

還有一條澆水的竅門，就是在濕熱的季節(jié)里不要在晚上澆水。水氣和潮氣加上高溫增加植物患病的機(jī)會(huì)，因?yàn)楫?dāng)水在植物的根部或葉部聚集過多時(shí)，就會(huì)導(dǎo)致疾病的傳播。
