gardening
Gardening is very fun!Before making a garden cut the grass very low. use a tiller to cut up the dirt.Its a good idea to have a garden with almost every thing. buying food from stores is worse than gardening because most common pesticides have harmful chemicals in food, so you better garden!When planting seeds, use disposable cups or seed starters. put dirt in the cups or seed starters use Popsicle sticks and write on them what you are planting. insert the Popsicle sticks then plant seeds.Place dirt and compost and spread it were you want it.When the seeds have sprouted, dig a hole were you want it, dig the sprouts out the cups or seed starter. plant the sprouts in the ground, and water them wait a few weeks, when they are ready to harvest harvest them!
