Hello friends of this community!

Have you seen that I have not forgotten about you? Every now and then I take a peek at your posts and I find them very interesting, above all I also find inspiration for cultivations through your posts.

Today in particular I wanted to share with you, my small raised vegetable garden that I decided to make last week, because I must say that I am not very good at cultivation, It takes passion in these things and a lot of time and unfortunately I have neither one nor the other.

However, for some time now some of my friends have taken a passion for the so-called raised vegetable gardens, which in my opinion are also interesting because First of all one of the great problems of the vegetable garden is that it consumes resources, such as land that can be used for other things or water which in my case in Italy is very expensive.

So, that's why this year I thought, and create this raised garden because they told me that it will consume less land, In fact I don't have much land near my house but above all by putting the right mulch You also save a lot of water So it's also a more environmentally friendly cultivation and I have to say that I like this a lot.
In fact, I found some pots that my father no longer used and basically I put them a little raised, I created a mulch inside these pots by recovering soil around and a little straw, and then I made a layer of soil by recovering the fertilizer from my neighbor, who doesn't use it.

I planted some tomato plants, cherry tomatoes should grow, I don't know what you call them around the world, Let's say they should be tomatoes that are useful for making pasta sauce, one of my favorite sauces actually.

I hope, that this garden can give the right fruits And I also want to understand how much labor and how much water it needs so that next year I can improve even more.

Thanks for reading my post See you next time!

Pensa che ho avuto la stessa idea l'anno scorso ! Ho preso i semini che ci sono all'interno del pomodorino e ti giuro che sono cresciute un sacco di piantine.. anche se purtroppo non sono riuscito ad accudirlo nel modo giusto qualche pomodorino l'ha fatto e me lo sono mangiato 😎 penso che lo rifarò anche quest'anno 😊

Si anch io ma poi mi dimentico di dare da bere

Pure io infatti c'ho rinunciato di fare l'orto quest'estate onestamente, perche poi con il lavoro che faccio fatico tantissimo a stargli dietro!
