Square-foot gardening is a great way to infuse your garden with color without having to spend a lot of money on landscaping. And you can have fresh veggies your first year. Wood (don't use pressure treated wood as the chemicals can leach into the soil), plastic, or even string works to mark the edges of the beds. What is it? This method of gardening uses space as economically and efficiently as possible and became popular in the 1980s by Mel Bartholomew. The reality for many of us is that we feel stuck with the soil we're given.
Trellises can be attached to square-foot garden boxes or can be anchored in the ground. And as long as you keep the soil in good shape with minerals and compost, you should be able to use it for years. You can easily do this with plants that you buy at a nursery or home center.
All gardeners want to have lovely, loamy soil that's easy to work in.
Or you can build square-foot boxes and create your own raised bed. For anyone who wants to have a productive garden but doesn't have the space, welcome to square-foot gardening. Then I strung some white garden netting between the posts and grew tomatoes, beans and flowering trumpet vine. If you want to grow plants that like to spread out like cantaloupe, cucumber and beans, try growing them vertically on a strong trellis. Not so!
If you choose to garden in a square-foot box (4 feet by 4 feet square is a perfect size), it's up to you to add the soil and amendments. In my very first square-foot garden in Marlton, New Jersey, I pounded pointed tomato stakes into the ground at the corners of the north end of the garden box.
You don't have to start plants from seed when you're square-foot gardening. Use this technique when planting directly into the ground.
This garden box technique is perfect for a first time homebuyer who doesn't have a lot of extra money.Throw out the idea that vegetable gardening can only be done in long rows with a minimum of an acre to work in. You can outline your square-foot beds using anything you want.
As its name implies, you'll want to create 12" x 12" squares when planting.
If that describes you, you've just closed on your new house and may feel like your bank account's bone dry. For instance, zucchini needs lots of room to roam around and so do pumpkins.
Now, I admit you gutter guards
can't grow absolutely everything in a one foot by one foot square, particularly if you're doing it in a raised bed. What I like about that idea is soil control. The whole idea behind square-foot gardening is growing a lot to in a small space.

As for as decorations are concerned
When youre planning to use a nautical theme, the first thing you should do is paint the walls blue, like the water. If you choose to stay with a regular bed, use blue and white bedding with red accents.Nautical themes are very popular right now, especially for living room or bedroom dcor. Adding a pop of red or yellow can add excitement to the room.
For the walls and windows, canvas is a traditional material that is very popular in nautical dcor. If you have wood paneling, dont cover it up; wood paneling on interior walls can remind you of the interior cabin on a ship or inside a beach house. These are the traditional nautical colors. Depending on your tastes you can use anything from very pale blue to bright or dark blue; any shade of blue will work with a nautical theme. The paint should not be shiny or new looking; it should look as if the furniture has had years of use on the beach or out to sea. Model sailboats, lighthouses, anchors, ship wheels, life rings, and vintage glass fishing floats can bring a nautical style to the walls, bookshelves, and tables in the room. Canvas curtains hung with the use of large eyelets are a classic piece of nautical dcor. You can even recycle an old sail, if you have access to one. The canvas can also be used to cover cushions or throw pillows.
. Pictures of sailing boats or other nautical or beach themes can be a great way to provide a centerpiece in the room. Boat shaped beds are also a possibility.
Use natural wood furniture or paint your furniture white or cream, possibly with a distressed look, to make it fit in with your nautical dcor.
As for as decorations are concerned, paddles and oars are an appropriate touch for any nautical themed room. You can also add a few flags tied to the tallest piece of furniture in the room, or use wooden flags that can be hung around the top of the walls all the way around your room. If youre choosing a whole new set of furniture to go with the nautical look, go for those that look like they belong in a beach cabin, including Adirondack chairs and wooden furniture. When decorating your nautical themed living room or bedroom, consider scenes you may encounter when walking along a boardwalk or at a marina, and use those as your inspiration. It can be used for curtains, dust ruffles for the bed, and other details. Natural ropes, netting, accents in bright red and white, and a porthole motif can all be easy ways to tie everything together. If you want to get creative with the furniture, you can even use a hammock for a chair or bed to represent a fishing net. It should instantly remind you of the seaside.
Nautical dcor should include elements that you would find on a boat.
When done right, a nautical themed room is unique and inviting. If you want your room to be more relaxing than exciting, choose a color scheme consisting of white, khaki, and any shade of blue.
