What materials do you need to grow a annual plant?

Answer 1

To grow most annual plants, you need soil, sun and water, and a seed or seedling.

Most garden plants prefer a soil that is just slightly acidic, and most are not very shade tolerant and will require loads of sun to thrive. Frequent and uniform watering is also important, especially during the developement of the plant.

If the soil is nutrient poor, add small amounts of fertilizers as follows:

High in phosphorus during root developement, high in nitrogen during stem and leaf developement, high in potassium during the flowering and fruiting stages.

The numbers on fertilizer bags are in the order Nitrogen - Phosphorus - Potasium, and represent the percentage of each component available as a plant nutrient.

Answer 2

To grow an annual plant, you will typically need seeds or seedlings, well-draining soil, sunlight, water, and fertilizer. Some annual plants may require additional materials such as trellises or stakes for support, mulch to retain moisture, or a greenhouse for controlled growing conditions.
