Growing your vegetables is exciting and rewarding. All you need to get started is some first-rate soil and a few plants. But to be a truly successful vegetable gardener — and to do it organically — you may need to recognize what it takes to keep your flowers healthful and vigorous. Here are the basics.
"Feed the soil" is like a mantra for organic gardeners, and with exact reason. In conventional chemical agriculture, crop vegetation is certainly "fed" without delay the use of synthetic fertilizers.
When taken to extremes, this variety of chemical force-feeding can step by step impoverish the soil. And turn it from a wealthy entity teeming with microorganisms bugs and other existence forms, into an inert developing medium that exists in most cases to anchor the plants' roots, and that presents little or no nutrition in its very own right.
Although quite some fertilizers and mineral nutrients (agricultural lime, rock phosphate, greensand, etc.) have to be added periodically to the organic garden, using far the most beneficial substance for constructing and keeping a healthy, well-balanced soil is a natural matter. You can add natural depend to your soil in many different ways, such as compost, shredded leaves, animal manures, or cover crops.
Organic count number improves the fertility, the shape, and the tilth of all types of soils. In particular, organic depend provides a non-stop source of nitrogen and different nutrients that flora need to grow. It additionally gives a wealthy food supply for soil microbes. As organisms in the soil elevate out the strategies of decay and decomposition, they make these nutrients handy to plants.

We have a small yard. We used to not like to plant but when we had a pandemic it became our hobby. We do not know how to plant but due to the pandemic and lockdown in our area we thought of planting, but how ?. Youtube served as a way for us to learn. This year, it has become part of our lives to grow vegetables and fruits in the yard. But our yard is too small for growing fruits and vegetables. Therefore, through seedling bags, we were able to plant a variety of veggies and fruits. Many also want to plant trees in the yard here with us - papaya, mango, jackfruit, atis, lansones, sinegwelas, kamyas, and tyesa. In other houses in our area, there are guavas, kaymito, santol, tsiko, duhat and balimbing plants. In the conservative estimate, a typical yard of ours has at least, eight fruit-bearing trees or fruit-bearing trees in it. Often, the fruit is eaten only or for the consumption of the grower or farmer and their family. That is why I was also enticed to plant. There are vegetables and fruits. Growing vegetables and fruits has not been easy because we have just done it and we do not have much land to grow crops. That's why my husband thought of grafting and marcotting. Grafting is a horticultural technique whereby tissues of plants are joined to continue their growth together. The upper part of the combined plant is called the scion while the lower part is called the rootstock. Marcotting, which is a type of vegetative plant propagation, is commonly known as air layering that involves rooting of a part of the stem while it is still attached to the parent plant. Not enough plants in the yard to support the whole but family during the pandemic helped us. We no longer have to go out often to buy food outside.

Here are some vegetables in our backyard:

Bitter gourd is a rich source of vitamins and minerals. It contains iron, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins like A and C. It contains twice the calcium of spinach and beta-carotene of broccoli. Various antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds are present in bitter gourd.
Okra is a nutritious food with many health benefits. It's rich in magnesium, folatefiberantioxidants, and vitamin C, K1, and A. Okra may benefit pregnant women, heart health, and blood sugar control. It may even have anti-cancer properties.
Lemons are full of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and antioxidants, and they are especially good sources of vitamin C and folate.
Eggplant is a high-fiber, low-calorie food that is rich in nutrients and comes with many potential health benefits. From reducing the risk of heart disease to helping with blood sugar control and weight loss, eggplants are a simple and delicious addition to any healthy diet.
Pechay Folate plays a role in the production and repair of DNA, so it might prevent cancer cells from forming due to mutations in the DNA. Bok choy also contains vitamin Cvitamin E, and beta-carotene. These nutrients have powerful antioxidant properties that help protect cells against damage by free radicals.

Lettuces It is a good source of fiber, iron, folate, and vitamin C. Lettuce is also a good source of various other health-beneficial bioactive compounds. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering, and anti-diabetic activities attributed to the bioactive compounds in lettuce.
Tomatoes are the major dietary source of the antioxidant lycopene, which has been linked to many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. They are also a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K.Mar 
Tomatoes
Mustard, they're particularly high in vitamin K, vitamin C, and plant compounds that may have antioxidant and anticancer effects. Additionally, incorporating mustard greens into your diet may be beneficial for heart, eye, and immune health.
Chili pepper we now know that chilies are also a good source of antioxidants. Forty-two grams of the spice would account for your recommended daily allowance of vitamin C, although admittedly that would make for a pretty strong curry. They are also rich in vitamin A, as well as minerals such as iron and potassium.
Capsicums are an excellent source of vitamin A and C (red contain more than green capsicums).
Lettuce It is a good source of fiber, iron, folate, and vitamin C. Lettuce is also a good source of various other health-beneficial bioactive compounds. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering, and anti-diabetic activities attributed to the bioactive compounds in lettuce.

Dragon fruit It’s rich in antioxidants like flavonoids, phenolic acid, and betacyanin. These natural substances protect your cells from damage by free radicals -- molecules that can lead to diseases like cancer and premature aging.
Siling labuyo
Carrots are a particularly good source of beta carotene, fiber, vitamin K1, potassium, and antioxidants ( 1
Papayas are loaded with Vitamin A and antioxidants, which help in improving eye health. 
Kulis
Squash is high in vitamins A, B6, and C, folate, magnesium, fiber, riboflavin, phosphorus, and potassium
Guavas are rich in dietary fiber and vitamin C, with moderate levels of folic acid (nutrition table).
My newest plant aloe vera
Strawberry packed with vitamins, fiber, and particularly high levels of antioxidants known as polyphenols, strawberries are a sodium-free, fat-free, cholesterol-free, low-calorie food.

We have plenty of vegetable and fruit plants in our backyard but because of the successive typhoons, it damages.

Planting vegetables and fruits inspired me a lot because in this pandemic money can't buy life. What we can do is to produce our goods to be consumed. It is good for every family to have their yard where you can grow vegetables. This way you can choose the type of vegetables you will grow, also you will be sure to be clean and not chemically compared to the vegetables sold in the market. Therefore, if you plant only in the yard of your house, it is better to use only organic fertilizer. Especially since your crop is not yet plentiful. What vegetables are beautiful and easy to grow in your yard? Planting it in your yard is also of course almost no different from planting in a commercial area that requires proper care.
