G'day Troops. Apart from growing cannabis I also like growing a lot of different things as well. I have a small but very productive vegie garden that helps keep the cost of living down and I eat very well. Just now I have corn, onions, peas, beans, birds eye chilli, spuds, strawbs, rhubarb and garlic growing down the back. In large pots I have mint, parsley, limes, mandarins and sylvan berries. I have a herb bed that has lemon thyme, rosemary, jalapeno's, marjoram, oregano and sage in it. I have still got some heritage tomato's to get going yet, but that will happen soon. My Aunty is a mad keen gardener, and gives me seeds for all sorts of heritage vegies that she grows…

Hello fellow gardeners. I am luckily not short on space in my garden, however my garden is a bit to far away from the kitchen for a quick dash for herbs while cooking. I came up with this idea so that I could have them close to the house. I am going to be putting herbs in mine, but I suppose anything that has a smaller root system would work well. I got a piece of PVC pipe ($4 from the tip shop), and cut it in half to make two smaller bits. Got an angle grinder and cut a upside down u shape. Used a blow drier to heat up the uncut bit of the 'u' until I could bend it back. I am getting a delivery of mushroom compost today, and I will go hunting for some seedlings…

I'm currently on a pretty good wicket, finished uni and all that jazz so now have a good job where i get to rent a place from my employer at a subsidized rate with a flat rate for bills ($45 per week for all excluding internet), now this is more than i would normally spend a fortnight previously so i figure why the hell shouldn't i make use of it and get a raging indoor garden on the go. Also they kicked up a shit when I pulled out some shitty looking plants to make space for veggies in th…
