Ways To Make A Garden With Tires

By George Dodson


A good way to save on fruit and vegetables is to grow your own, like your parents may have done. It is relatively inexpensive and not that hard to do. You will thoroughly enjoy the freshness of a garden vegetable. A herb garden is something you can try as well. Store bought produce cannot be as good as that which you grow fresh from the garden. Growing your own produce is very satisfying. Finally, you control what goes into it. You know it is fresh, natural, and without preservatives.

Lots of people just dont have the space for lots of fruit and vegetable growing. For that reason, they need an alternative. One possible answer to this problem is to plant your garden in smaller spaces. This works because you can plant, harvest, and plant again during the season and still have enough for your personal needs. Old tires are a great way for planting a garden.

You can find many places where you can get these for free. You might them for only $5.00 in other places. You only need four or five, depending on the amount of planting you intend to do. Large jobs will obviously need a lot more, maybe double the amount.

You might think that these old tires dont look that good. Will the neighbors not like them? Of course you can always cover them in ways that will improve how they look. You can set them in wooden boxes to increase their attractiveness. Cutting into floral patterns and then painting them works. Try, as a stand, the rim of the tire.

it is best to pick a place and cultivate the soil by digging down to a depth of 4 inches. For healthy plants you will need the roots to grow as deeply as is possible. Good soil is essential for planting. You can buy this at Home Depot, Lowes or your local hardware store. Make sure you fertilize it properly and then plant your seeds according to the instructions. Dont over water, but do water regularly. Your needs will be filled from the small but efficient garden. You will save money on vegetables and fruits because it costs far less to grow them then to buy them in the store.
