“Apartment Gardening” by Garard White presents city-dwellers with the information we need to create a small garden. With inflation over 8%, there has never been a better time to grow your own food.
There are other benefits to having a small garden, such as better health, relaxation, soothing work, income, and being productive.
You don’t need much space to start a garden, and there are many types of apartment gardens such as herbs, fruits, veggies, and flowers. You can even match your garden to your home decor with the right plan.
1) Build your garden slowly. Each plant has its own growth schedule, space requirements, and harvesting rules. Each year, add more plant varieties to your garden, ensuring they don’t disturb the garden’s harmony.
2) The acronym “SEN” stands for serene, enjoyable, and natural. These words are vital to building a garden that is soulful and relaxing.
3) Some herbs with fabulous scents are lemon balm, rosemary, and chocolate mint. Some sweet-smelling shrubs are Honeysuckle, Roses, and Lilac.
4) Some wonderful indoor herbs and plants are garlic chives, lemon balm, cilantro, oregano, basil, tomatoes, peppers, string beans, potatoes, and baby carrots.
5) Growing your garden indoors also reduces the need for pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemicals because there are fewer pests, molds, and weeds.
The main reason I read this book was to get the inside scoop of growing edible food. I want to grow cabbage, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
There are even more edible items I can grow, such as fruits, veggies, nuts, roots, and herbs. Even better, I can sell the leftovers to customers seeking organic food. It’s a win-win.
Planning is a huge consideration for any garden. There are specific time and size requirements for each plant. Also, the formation of your garden, water source, and amount of sunlight all play a part in your decisions.
If inflation affects you (as it will), gardening should be on the top of your list of ways to mitigate it. Reading books like this can help prepare you to convert your home into a beautiful garden space.
