Archive for April, 2015. Revisiting my balcony garden in bangalore. I am in Bangalore, India, since the last four months. When I returned, my potted plants watered by the watchmen at the apartment where I stay were in bad shape. Over these four months, with tender loving care, I have brought them back to good health! In the meanwhile, I visited Lalbagh on Independence day and came across some glorious flowers! Here are some samples. Flowers forming the Red Fort in New Delhi. 160; . I grew this plumeri...

Quarter Acre of Livelihood (for chickens :). Quarter Acre of Livelihood (for chickens :). A month back, after harvesting the sun hemp, we proceeded to seed all the raised beds in the 25 cents with a variety of seeds weighing about 10 kgs (22 pounds). Many of the seeds were tiny so we decided against making clay pellets for faster completion of work. Also, we are not very good at making these pellets so the decision was easy. But we did get a whole day’s worth of chicken manure. August 18, 2015 at 8:50 pm.

Couple of years back and have been fascinated by its possibilities. According to one definition, “Hugelkultur is nothing more than making raised garden beds filled with rotten wood.” These are our second and third sets of HK beds. We did not want to wait for the decomposing of the wood before planting and planted 7 kilos of small onions (shallots) on it. Since we did not want to wait, we are watering it everyday – what an irony as HK is meant to eliminate daily irrigation. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.
