For the whole of South Africa, except the area in which I live, summer had arrived. But only in the last two days, have summer really reached my area. We are in the middle of the summer heat now. Just

More than a year ago, 500 days to be precise, I built a raised bed from scrap materials. In the last couple of months, I "upgraded" this system by making it slightly bigger. It is by no means

Мій міні-баштан закінчився, і можна підводити підсумки. Ба більше, - можна навіть спробувати свої, власноруч вирощені кавунчики і диньки. Тільки не так я собі уявляла цю грядку восени. 😁 Тут мали красуватися
