Many gardeners live in areas where almost anything can grow effortlessly. Just plant the seeds and water it for a few weeks
and you’ve got a http://www.10-host.com beautifully lush plant. But if you live in somewhere like Colorado
you’ll understand what its like to have a slim selection of plants that naturally grow. It can be quite a challenge to facilitate the growth of a large variety of plants
especially when the very world you live in seems to be rooting against you.

Some people solve this problem by loading up their plants with every type of chemical and fertilizer known to man. This usually works
but to me it seems kind of unnatural to rely on man made materials to keep your plants alive. Also
if I’m growing fruits or vegetables
I don’t feel very comfortable eating something that is entirely composed of chemicals.

A gardening theory that I have relied on in the past to grow many types of plants is that of creating a “microclimate” for each type of plant. This is when you regulate the sunlight
shade
moisture
and wind factors for each separate plant. It sounds like a challenge
and it is. But you can regulate these factors in such a way that the plant feels just like it is in the ideal growing conditions. This can be achieved by the use of wind barriers
shading umbrellas
extra water
or different types or amounts of compost.

If you’re ready to make an attempt at creating microclimates
you’ll need to make a detailed plan in advanced. You should start by finding a large shade providing bush or tree that will grow fast and naturally in your area. Just look at some undeveloped plots of land and see what is there. Most likely it grew on its own without any planting or care. This is what you want to happen. Usually the growing of one plant can bring about the growing of another more desirable plant.

If you have a fence in your backyard (you would be surprised at how many people don’t) then you already have a good amount of shade to work with. You can start the microclimate process using just the shade of the fence
combined with (perhaps) a screen or large bush to shade your new plant for the other half of the day that the fence doesn’t take care of. The fence is also useful for shading against wind for very fragile plants.

Once you have established the shade
be it natural or unnatural
you have created a slightly less harsh miniature environment. You must remember this is a gradual process
and find a new plant to put in the shade of the other one. Now your choices are a little more open. You don’t have to go with a rugged plant like the one you did before; you can now choose a plant that survives in cooler weather.

If the plant you are trying to grow next requires more moisture in the air than your area provides
installing a fountain or small pond can fix this problem due to the evaporation. You may think you don’t want to waste water on a pond or fountain
but it’s all going toward the betterment of your garden. It’s just like the watering process
only indirect. As an added benefit
usually fountains are quite aesthetically attractive and a great addition to your garden.

I can’t explain every stage of the process
because everyone’s goals and setups are slightly different. But to reach your goal
you should do research on every plant that you would like to have in your garden. Find out everything you can about the zone that it flourishes in
and ask yourself how you can emulate that zone within your own backyard. Almost always you can take control of the environment and recreate whatever you wish. Usually all it takes is some planning and strategy.
