I've been planning for quite some time now, to start gardening, but I don't know what to do! We have a lifeless yard void of grass or any living thing for that matter. I don't have a green thumb, and trust me, plants usually shy away from my touch. Oh crud nuts, I don't even have any clue as to what to do with gardening! I'm a complete dummy when it comes to gardening.
Sounds familiar? The above situation usually applies to eager beavers who have taken an interest in the green thumb. But do not actually have either time, talent or the idea to begin with. Well, fret not! There are a lot of things you can consider before fully taking up gardening as an option for serious business.
For one thing, always attend a seminar at least. It's not really a requirement (as most states usually don't hold gardening seminars. Consult your local gardening shop or club for free schedules.) Attending a seminar may seem stupid in some aspect, but it is actually a recommended crash course for you to take in this part of your life. It's like reading a dummy's guide for basic gardening.
Seriously, you can't expect yourself to just drop in and thrash around like a struggling fish. Gardening has a lot, and I mean, quite a lot of subcategories. You have fruit gardening, vegetable gardening, ornamental plant gardening, bonsai gardening, orchid gardening, herb gardening, medicine gardening, vermiculture and tree gardening.
Taking everything in context, you'd find yourself sooner or later flabbergasted at the amount of stuff you missed, while being surrounded by haphazardly assembled gardening tools and manure around you.
