I've got lots growing (relatively) and have had the opportunity to identify another type of aphid, and ladybug eggs in the process. Pictures to come. All this on a 9th story apartment balcony. I miss my yard and my house, but we're making this work!

Harvest from the Balcony

Your harvest looks delicious. Many gardeners have been successful growing on their balconies. Nothing like having a back yard, but I'm sure you you will make it work.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was delicious! I think the down sizing just has me whiny and sad. I'm going to try my best!
DeleteHA! That looks much better than the lettuce I tried to grow in my fall garden! I had to go to the store to buy some today.
ReplyDelete:) doesn't mean you don't try again, baby lettuce is great! You haven't had to buy produce in ages, I bet!! Containers are working out pretty well for lettuce and radishes.
DeleteI loved Alexandria, VA when we visited there and your greens look lovely and delicious! Nancy
ReplyDeleteThanks! We are liking it so far!
DeleteGlad you checked in! Lettuce looks great and it's nice to see you are working with what you have :) I don't envy you up in Alexandria LOL, although at least there is an IKEA there!
ReplyDeleteErin- Thanks! I'm certainly trying. It's definitely not something I'm willing to give up on, even with such a small space to work with. There are TWO IKEA's within a 50 mile radius! I can hardly believe it. My husband is not a big fan, but I am very grateful. I'll have the occasional opportunity to raid their As-Is rooms, without having made a full plan of attack day out of it!
