Tip #1: Prepping
One of the more important planning steps you can take is to make a
good list of your gardening supplies and tools. It may help to mark
tools so they can be easily found "in the field." Once you've
taken inventory, gather a large plastic bucket, the five-gallon kind,
to keep larger items in. This can double as a seat when needed.
It's important when beginning a project in the garden to do a bit of housekeeping. That includes clearing away unnecessary materials, testing soil, and properly nourishing the soil in critical areas.
