Balcony garden watering lessons

2026-08-27 · English · San Francisco, United States

The native and drought-tolerant plants on our balcony are doing better with less frequent, deeper watering than with the daily splash I started with. The annoying part is that “less frequent” still means paying attention while roots establish. A dry surface i...

Cómo evitar que la sábila se ahogue

2026-08-23 · Spanish · Callao, Peru

La sábila también se puede ahogar Mi sábila estaba grande, bonita y bien parada... hasta que algunas hojas empezaron a ponerse blandas. Yo pensé que le faltaba agua, pero era todo lo contrario: la maceta no estaba drenando bien. La saqué con cuidado y encontr...

ملاحظة صغيرة عن نبتة الريحان

2026-08-14 · Arabic · Fes, Morocco

نبتة الريحان التي غيّرت مكانها في البيت في الظهيرة، لاحظت أن نبتة الريحان قرب النافذة بدأت تميل كلها نحو جهة واحدة. لم تكن عطشى، وأوراقها ما زالت خضراء، لكن الضوء كان يصل إليها من جانب واحد فقط. أدرت الأصيص قليلًا، ووضعت تحته صحنًا صغيرًا حتى لا يترك الماء أث...

Ce plante rezistă pe balcon la bloc

2026-08-01 · Romanian · Cluj-Napoca, Romania

Anul acesta am pus trei roșii cherry și două ghivece de busuioc pe balcon. Roșiile au făcut multe frunze, dar puține fructe, în timp ce busuiocul a crescut aproape fără pauză. Probabil am supraestimat soarele de după-amiază și am udat prea des. La voi ce plan...

איך מגדלים עגבניות במרפסת בהצלחה

2026-07-31 · Hebrew · Rishon LeZion, Israel

העגבניות במרפסת לימדו אותי לא למהר עם עציצים חדשים בשנה שעברה קניתי שתיל עגבנייה קטן למרפסת, בעיקר כי בתי התלהבה מהרעיון של עגבניות שגדלות ליד החלון. במשך כמה שבועות כמעט לא קרה כלום. היו עלים, קצת פרחים, והרבה בדיקות יומיומיות שלנו אם כבר יש עגבנייה אמיתית....

Hoe maak klein tuine waterwys

2026-07-31 · Afrikaans · Stellenbosch, South Africa

’n Klein tuin hoef nie ’n klein verskil te maak nie My balkon is nie groot genoeg vir ’n indrukwekkende tuin nie, maar dit is groot genoeg vir kruie, ’n vlak waterbak en ’n paar plante wat nie elke dag dors staan nie. Dit klink eenvoudig, want dit is eenvoudi...

Kako ohraniti baziliko med dopustom?!

2026-07-30 · Slovenian · Domžale, Slovenia

Letos sem jo pred nekajdnevnim odhodom dobro zalila, lonec umaknila z najbolj vročega dela balkona in prosila sestro, naj preveri, ali je zemlja čisto suha. Kljub temu so bili listi po vrnitvi povešeni, nekateri pa že rumeni. Mislim, da je težava bolj v nihan...

Ahoana no hambolena zaridaina kely an-tanàna

Mety ho zaridaina kely ve ny lavarangana rehetra? Namboly anana sy tongolo maitso tao anaty vilany vitsivitsy teo amin’ny lavaranganay aho. Tsy dia lehibe ilay toerana, fa rehefa maraina dia mahafinaritra ny mahita ravina vaovao eo akaikin’ny kaopy kafe. Ny t...

How can a garden notebook help

2026-07-29 · English · Murfreesboro, United States

The Most Useful Garden Tool Is a Pencil I have finally accepted that I will not remember which tomato variety performed well, when the basil started flowering, or whether the mystery volunteer in the herb bed is actually a weed. My garden memory is cheerful b...

why community gardens are hard to replace

2026-07-29 · English · Vancouver, Canada

A Community Garden Is More Than Its Plots I came across a short video from Cedar Cottage Community Garden’s 10th anniversary celebration, featuring T’uy’t’tanat-Cease Wyss speaking about the garden and its community. It is a modest piece of local history, but...

The pothos has entered its jungle era

2026-07-24 · English · Somerville, United States

My supposedly indestructible pothos has put out three new leaves at once, which feels less like successful plant care and more like it is quietly taking over the apartment. I’m choosing to call this a collaboration.
