I have been wanting to build my own garden.

How much would it cost to start one with about 15-20 plants. I want a few bell peppers, two jalepeno, a couple chilis, tomoto, basil, rosemary, thyme, and some other herbs.

What am i looking at initial investment with soil and plants? How big should the garden be?


Maybe i just need to get that book.

Another good book or internet research "Square Foot Gardening" which is the method I use. You divide your raised bed into sq. ft. sections and plant at a closer spacing than you would with a row garden. You get more plants/ yield per sq ft and less weeding.
