Learn how to grow vegetables in spring and prepare your garden beds for spring planting with these helpful tips. Start sowing and planting out your vegetables after the danger of frost has passed. You can also harvest vegetables planted the year before in springtime. To sow vegetables in the spring, wait until the last chances of frost have passed. Consider sowing seeds indoors for a milder climate for young seedlings. Prepare the outdoor beds by weeding, incorporating well-rotted manure, improving drainage, and adding slow-release feed for perennial vegetables. Protect your outdoor vegetables from pests like slugs and snails using pellets, traps, or barriers. Place mulch over your vegetables in winter if they won't produce until the next spring. Moving your vegetables outside involves transferring indoor potted plants to outdoor beds. Harden off your plants by acclimatizing them to the outdoor conditions gradually. Plant your indoor plants in the outdoor garden when the soil has softened. Quick cropping vegetables can be sown for a speedy harvest in a few weeks. Consider planting beetroot for a faster growth in mid-spring. Enjoy a successful spring gardening season by following these steps to prepare your vegetable garden.
