      To avoid pesticides, avoiding exposing myself anything harmful to myself in the garden, and for the bees and other critters in my garden! I’m always digging in there and grabbing leaves and eating them, giving my catnip to my cat - I don’t want to worry about pesticide exposure.

    Great job on your patio garden. A couple of things you might consider growing are green onions just buy a bundle from the store and cut off the bottom inch or so including the roots. They'll re sprout and you harvest the green shoots over and over all season. Likewise leaf lettuce can be harvested over and over during the season.

  • @Hentomo
    @Hentomo Před 4 lety +6

    a tip: clip overgrowing plant's leaves (only leaves more than 2 weeks old), and put them in the soil so the plants can reuse them. i do this with my tomatoes and strawberries and it helped them a lot.

    I appreciate the harmful times for three reasons,
    we get reconnected with mother nature and remember what we were supposed to eat,
    it brings out the Native survival skills of ours....
    and we spiritually connect with the grace of the earth which are plants and re-learn we can survive on greens, even for medicinal purposes. I appreciate the hard times, and I love mother nature.

      Do it and see what one you like more! I also grew the regular kale the last 2 years and it did great, my only downside was I tended to get more leaves from the Dino kale, and I found that bugs can be hidden in the curly kale a bit easier since it has more grooves - it was a bit more time consuming to wash. But it's fun to try both and see what you like for the next year
