The Balcony Beginner

A couple of months ago I suddenly had a really strong urge to garden. It was a stressful time and I found myself wanting to have my hands in the earth, and to nurture something and watch it grow. The only problem - I don’t have a garden. 

What I DO have is a small north facing balcony that gets about 2 hours of sunshine a day (when it’s not cloudy that is). 

I started out with one solitary pot. (I’ll post a picture of that soon). Now I have a few more, and I’m learning plenty as I go. 

In this blog I’ll share the journey and the stuff I learn from my mistakes for other virgin gardeners to benefit from - and for the more seasoned among you to laugh at.
