Vegetable crops have shallow root zones, need light and frequent irrigation of 3-5 mm/day depending upon the stage of crop. There are vegetables whose seedlings are grown in nursery and later transplanted in fields, and for other vegetables the seeds are sown directly in the field and allowed to germinate. For germination of seeds, the soil temperature is very important and 20-24 Deg. C temperature is considered good for germination which can be maintained by micro sprinkler. For vegetative growth of plant, micro climatic conditions are very important where ambient temperature & humidity play a vital role. Vegetables with different spacing are grown using different cultivation practices like on beds, ridges and randomly.
