Meet My Rooftop and Balcony Garden

I Love Gardening. I love Nature. It was mainly during covid that I started gardening on my roof and balcony. I believe that A rooftop vegetable/Flower garden can be a fantastic way to grow your own fresh produce, even if you have limited space. With a little bit of planning and care, you can cultivate a variety of Flowers, vegetables, herbs, and fruits right on your rooftop. Not only is it a great way to have access to healthy and organic produce, but it can also help you save money and reduce your carbon footprint. Plus, it’s a fun and rewarding way to get outside, enjoy some fresh air and sunshine, and connect with nature.

Gardening is my favorite hobby that provides me many benefits to both mind and body. It involves nurturing plants and flowers, tending to them, and watching them grow and thrive. Gardening can be a great stress-reliever, as it allows you to focus on the present moment.

There are many different types of gardening, from growing fruits and vegetables to cultivating beautiful flowers and plants. It can be done in a backyard, on a balcony, or even in a small indoor space. Here are some vegitable plant photographs from my garden.

One of the best things about gardening is that it allows you to create something beautiful and useful. You can grow your own food, beautify your home or outdoor space, and create a habitat for local wildlife.

Gardening also provides me a sense of accomplishment and pride, as you see your hard work pay off in the form of beautiful plants and bountiful harvests. It’s a great way to stay active and get some exercise, too.

Hello @TajkiyaNijami , Congratulations on your potted garden, the flowers are really beautiful and the vegetables too.

Taking care of plants is also a mental cure, I remember that doctors recommend working in the garden as an anti-stress cure.

Anyway my first idea, while reading your post was that it takes a long time to water all your plants, it’s kind of a job.

Good work
Best regards :woman_farmer:

Thank you so much for the nice complement and inspiration. Yes it takes long time to take water. But it is relatively easy as there is a system of pipes to give water on the roof. it easy because I have water tab system on the roof. @DENIT33
