Today I planted a bunch of plants that I hope will benefit me and my budgies. I bought lots of organic potting soils and a few more pots. I found some seeds, but will likely still buy some online.
So far, I have planted Ruby Swiss Chard, Broccoli, Cherry Belle Radish, Spinach, Mustard, Jack Be Little Pumpkin, Short n' Sweet Carrot, Nasturtium, Calendula, White/Red Millet (from seed mix), and Canary Seed (from seed mix). Some were sown directly into pots outside while others are in a mini indoor greenhouse. I will later plant spray millet, Sunspot Sunflower, Wheat (and other grass grains).
We will see how well they all fare. It is worth a shot to see if I can grow some of the vegetables on my patio. The only problem is lack of prolonged direct sunlight so I probably will have to move some pots out of the patio into the sunlight when I am home. I just want to be careful other dogs walking by don't get to it nor the pesticide people spray my plants outside.
I will post some pictures when there is something interesting to show. I doubt people like seeing just a pot of soil.
