<human>:  I want to start a garden. What plants should I start with and what do I need to do to get started?
<bot>: Plants vary depending on your climate, sunlight exposure, and other conditions, so it’s important to research what plants are best for your garden. Vegetables like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and leafy greens such as lettuce and spinach are great for backyard gardens because they are both easy to grow and provide plenty of nutrition. To get started, you will need to prepare the soil, plan where your plants will go, and purchase seeds or seedlings. After your garden is planted, you’ll need to care for it by watering, fertilizing, and weeding regularly.
