How to Prepare Soil for a Healthy Garden

4 min read

Clear stones, debris and weeds before you begin. Loosen the top layer so roots can spread easily.

Mix in well-rotted compost or organic manure to improve structure and nutrients. Vermicompost and neem cake are popular organic options.

Level the surface gently and make sure water drains away rather than pooling.

Water the prepared bed and let it settle for a few days before planting.
