Thought I'd start a thread about gardening and see how it goes?

I've played with a vegie patch for a few years and have grown a variety of things with varied results. The normal stuff , carrots , beans , lettuce , tomatos , spuds , and chives ( my most fave herb lol )

Started up doing my own bonsai tree
 
Yep, during my rest breaks I water the trees I have in pots (Thats about 15L 3-4 days a week). My olive tree is now growing well, mandarin is too. The lemon tree is spouting lemons all over the place (finally taken a couple of years for it to settle in and grown well). Add in fertiliser every fortnight and it is going really well. I have only had 1 lemon from it up to this point.

Had a potted veggie garden of tomatoes, lettuce and eggplant a few years back. The tomatoes went well but I was overseas for 3 weeks during the start of spring (with a drought) and no one looked after them for me like they were told to, most of them died off. Delicious tomatoes though.
 
I like to grow

i got one of those dward lemon plants that you can leave in the pot, was quite suprised that it gave off quite a few lemons in the first sprout

next dwarf plant i want to get is a fruit salad one
 
Once we have our own place I will have too many trees to mention. Really want a orange tree, love my oranges.

PO-TA-TOES...
 
the dwarf lemon trees are also call lots of lemons, mine is also about to spot fruit, done flowering now., Also have lime, and bluberries, avocardo, custard apples, pineapples, pumpkins, carrots, tomatoes, capsicums, chillies, oregano,thyme, sage, parsley, chives, basil, lemon balm, mints, bay tree, passionfruits.

When we bought our place we went nuts, it was great previously having them all in pots..

Gardening is a great way to relax, and or, get fit, and strong, lots of lifting, digging, chopping etc, followed by beer and a watering!

current projects ( vegies patch never stops) but am building up a nice shade, type area, tree ferns, palm, other fern, etc, and have a cacutus type garden out front which is nearly done.
 
I would like to have a nice vegie garden one day,save on going to the shops to get what you need for cooking lol.
 
A customer of mine (who is an anaethasist!!) has a fully netted garden, full of berries and fruit trees.

The produce is amazing, tastes completely different to what you would buy at the supermarket.
 
I grew a mutant potato once. It was nearly the size of a basketball.
