Direct Seeding Vegetables.

Direct seeding is often the beginning of many vegetable gardens.

Seeding directly into the garden is the easiest and least expensive way to grow vegetables. However, you may not have the climate that will let you direct-seed some vegetables:
1. The seedlings may take longer to grow, making them more susceptible to weather conditions than transplants grown indoors.

2. The vegetables to grow from seed are those that will mature within the span of your growing season and those that don't like to be transplanted.

Soil Preparation:
The key to successful planting is proper soil preparation. When the soil is neither too wet nor too dry, turn the soil to a depth of 8 to 12 inches while adding organic matter. You should also apply a complete fertilizer, working it evenly into the soil.
As you're preparing the soil, remove all stones, rocks, lumps, and the assorted debris that accumulated.

Planting Depth:
The depth you plant your seeds depends on their size. They only need enough soil to cover them and supply moisture for germination. Seeds buried too deep may not be able to struggle through the soil to the surface.
As a rule of thumb, seeds should be covered up to twice their diameter at their largest point.
After you've set the seeds at the correct depth, firm the soil by tamping it with your hands or the end of your garden rake. This will improve contact between the seeds and the moist soil.

Seed Spacing:
Seed spacing is also critical: If plants are forced to grow too close together, they may produce little or no yield. If seeds are large enough to handle, such as beans and corn, it's fairly easy to space them correctly. But with tiny seeds, spacing can be tricky. Take your time in spacing while planting, but you'll still probably have to thin seedlings soon after germination.

Decide whether you'll sow seeds in a single row or a wide row. Vegetables such as beets, carrots, collards, kale, leaf lettuce, mustard, radishes, and spinach will produce nicely in wide rows while conserving space and water. The rows should be no wider than about 36 inches, making it easy to maintain and harvest vegetables.

Prepare the row by loosely raking the soil, leaving the indentations made by the rake. Sprinkle the seeds evenly over the soil, and use the rake to press them into the soil. Cover the row with a thin layer of soil, straw, or loose compost to help keep the soil moist.

Planting in a single row is the most commonly used seeding arrangement. It's the easiest to maintain because you can comfortably cultivate between rows, but it's the least economical. Plants dry out faster, and there is more unused garden space.

TRANSPLANTING VEGETABLES
When you start seeds indoors, transplanting is an important part of growing a vegetable farm.

Transplanting your vegetables using the proper techniques can be the difference between having a stressed vegetable farm and having one that thrives.

Here are five tips for successfully transplanting seedlings into the vegetable farm

1. Use Strong Seedlings

Choose transplants that are stocky with strong stems, deep green foliage, is free of yellow leaves, and there is no evidence of disease and pests.

Some signs of disease or pests are holes in leaves, leaves that look chewed, brown streaks on leaves or stem, and spots on leaves.

The seedling should be about as wide across as it is tall. Avoid tall, spindly seedlings with weak stems. If the seedling seems to fall over easily it most likely has a week stem and should be avoided.

Avoid using any vegetables that have fruit or blooms already on them. You want the plant to concentrate on growing a solid root system before growing any fruit.

Plants with blooms, or fruit, are concentrating their energy on producing that fruit, not growing.


2. Dig a Proper Hole

A good planting hole is very important to how well the transplant adapts and grows to its new home.

The planting hole should be at least double the width as the root ball of the seedling.

The depth of the planting hole should be equal to the current depth of the seedling. You want to transplant the seedling so the soil level is about the same as the soil level of the seedling.

Transplanting the seedling too deep, or too shallow, can cause unwanted results.

The exception to the rule is tomatoes, which can be planted deep for better root development.

The soil in and around the planting hole should be loosened well to make it easier for the plant roots to grow downward and out. Don’t forget to add compost when backfilling the planting hole.

3. Avoid Damaging the Plant Roots

One very fast way to kill a transplant is to damage the root system. Some plants, like tomatoes and peppers, do not mind having their roots played with a bit.

Many plants like okra, cucumbers, and squash do not like having their roots disturbed and can even die from it.

Carefully Transplant Seedlings Into the Vegetable farm. Avoid damaging the plant roots.

4. Prevent Transplant Shock

Imagine being pull out of your nice comfortable home, and plopped down in some strange new environment.

That would freak you out a bit?

That’s what it is like for the plant when it is transplanted into the vegetable farm.

Transplant shock can be very common when transplanting seedlings, and many times the seedling may need a bit of help recovering.

Adding phosphorus to the planting holes is a great way to help reduce transplant shock, and help the seedlings to develop stronger roots. Phosphorus is essential for root development.

Avoid using fertilizers that are high in nitrogen for newly transplanted seedlings.

5. Water the plant Religiously

The last thing you want to do is to transplant your vegetables then walk away without watering them well.
Newly transplanted plants need to be watered well until they have become established in their new home and began developing new growth.

Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water the transplants deeply each day, depending on rainfall amounts.

Once the plants have become established you can switch to typical watering patterns.
