is it feasible to plant your own vegetables at home?ive got a 20x20 feet of space at home and was wondering would it be more cheaper if i plant my own carrots or potatos.
I do and some of mine aren't even in the ground, they grow in containers. Tomatos and peppers are easy to grow, either in the ground or in containers. Herbs are, too. Strawberries fresh from the garden are delicious. I even have a drawf lemon and lime tree. Haven't had luck growing root plants because our soil is so hard. But, before you choose what plants to grow check with the people at your local nursery they will know your zone and help you pick the types of veggies for your soil and light conditions. And, with what we pay for produce around here, it is quiet a savings.
All I can say is that you have enough room, and the price of fresh veggies are going to keep getting higher. Of course home grown will taste much better too! Why stop with just potatoes and carrots try other types too! Tomatoes are very easy to grow so are zucchini's and they will grow up a fence or over a large patch of ground, how about bush cucumbers that grow in pots? The possibilities are endless
