The general principle is easy: plant seed, add water and watch the vegetable grow. But the logistics are complicated. When do you plant everything? How big will cabbage grow? Will it overshadow the carrots? Am I going to fail???

The answer is yes, you will probably fail at more than a few things when starting your first garden. But there's help, and it comes in the form of a really easy-to-read, easy-to-understand infographic by Anglian Home. This chart not only shows you when to plant, but spells out which plants buddy up to maximize space and deter pests naturally.
