* Customize the type of trees to be planted with the existing land. If you have large tracts of land, planted trees are large or small is not a problem. But if your land is limited, plant small trees. In the narrow land, do not plant trees with trunk circumference is too big and tall.
* If you want to grow vegetables, note the location and size of your land elevation. If you land in the lowlands, do not plant vegetables for the plateau. And vice versa.
* Note the time period of growing and productive plant. If the time of harvest, consider the stages of regeneration of tree planting to continue. If you want to plant fruit, papaya and citrus trees could be an option. This tree does not grow too high and its trunk circumference is not too large. The fruit can be harvested periodically in a relatively long period of time, so no need to replace it with new plants.
* Generally plants grow above the ground. But in fact the land is only one media to grip the roots. In other words, the soil can be replaced with other media as long as the nutrient or nutrients that are needed still exist. Media that can be a substitute for natural compost, sediment or silt from the bottom of the water channel in front of the house which of course is not oil or oil contaminated.
* The media needs a place or container in accordance with the type of plant. Can be a pot or other containers such as buckets, drums (for fruit), cut tires, tin cans, basins or black plastic bags.
* To obtain the seeds, can be obtained in various ways. For these types of fruit trees, seeds can be obtained by grafting menyetek or directly from the parent tree. For this type of kitchen herbs, like ginger, galangal, turmeric, chili, etc., can be obtained from the remaining seeds or pieces of original flavor and can be plugged directly into the soil or other media. For this type of seasonal vegetables are more specialized such as eggplant, kale, lettuce, cabbage, beans, etc., the seedlings can be purchased at shops in your city farm.
* If you're ready, take care of your plants well. Wash your plants twice a day, morning and afternoon. Note the growth of the day and do not let pests or 'ignorant hands' disturbing your plants.
Before you start planting, a good idea to consult with people who are experts in agriculture. Then invite your family members to participate in managing this land. Happy farming.
