My wee balcony garden

[Grace]

How is everything growing - have you been able to harvest yet?

[Catty1]

Thanks, Grace.

Oh heck, this was hardly a major growing project...I think I got 8 good size pea pods, and maybe 10 cherry tomatoes(which I gave away, as I don't like tomatoes!).

I don't think the big tomatoes will make it, though you never know....they aren't near big enough.

NEXT year I know I will have radishes, and lettuce. Might try peas again...or carrots?

This was more for fun than a snack. Thank goodness my kitties aren't veggie nibblers!

Catty1 - Did you ever try a hydroponic garden in your basement ? You'll have fresh lettuce and veggies year round. if you have a spare bedroom, you can put it in there also. They don't dirty, the light is great for them and you can water easily.

Hi, shepgirl - I am on the second floor of a building in a 2 bdrm condo! No basement...and my second bedroom is an office, with computer and everything.

Besides...I would have to move the cabinet with folded blanket where my furbabes look out the window! Can't do THAT!

Maybe one day I will have a little yard somewhere.

Yup if I would have heard you come running in saying I gotta pea == I would have said so what.. Yes your garden looks very nice & yummy.. So when is Harvest??

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Hi sis!!! Haha, your "I've got a pea" made me laugh so hard

Your tomatoes look real yummie!! Nothing better than a fresh homegrown ripe tomato

Nice. We had a garden with LOTS of things a couple years ago. Too lazy lately to get one started. Maybe next year.

I did LOL when I read that she said she's got a pea. And my dad would have said - what, are you selling tickets?

[Daisy and Delilah]

I love it!!! How cool!! Maybe I can convince my Mom to have a garden on her patio. Thanks for sharing!!

Oops, sorry Catty, didn't realize - guess a condo would pose a problem. But heck, if your living room is big enough I would put it in there. You'd have to make sure your furbabbies don't get at it. The small garden you do have seems to be flourishing well though.
