![]() ![]() Patricia-Ann Morrison from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada on September 16, 2012: TotallyPatti - Thanks! I look forward to reading more about your balcony garden's progress! I either use a layer at the top of the pot and plant the seeds directly outside, or start the seeds in degradable cardboard egg-cartons, keeping them inside until the weather is warm enough, and the seedlings are large enough to be transplanted. If planting seeds, you may have better results with a seed raising mixture instead of regular potting soil. Buying and Planting: The Fun Part!įinally-shopping and planting! Try to choose a day that is not too hot, or with stormy weather, and re-pot any plants that need it immediately. The rest must wait for next year or a larger balcony. If there is space in my weekly budget, some of the smaller 'extras' may be allowed to creep in, but probably not the worm farm or larger pond with fish. If the space and budget had allowed, I would have included spring bulbs, bay, kumquat and lime trees, strawberries, sunflowers, cucumbers, capsicums (peppers), lemongrass, aloe vera (for burns), a variety of cut-able and scented flowers, a worm farm, plus some fish for the water feature.
