Hello from Central Scotland

Post: # 171392Post Susiwaa »

Hi!

I'm Susi, currently living on the M8 corridor in Scotland about half way between Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Not got much in the way of a garden but what little we do have we are hoping to use to its max next year!!

We do what we can to buy/user/waste less but the more we can learn the better we'll get!

:flower:

Hi there! :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Hi Susi and welcome to ish.
With a small plot you could maximise by using pots and troughs for planting, even at different heights (chanteney carrots in a window box springs to mind :icon_smile: ). We've had some great stuff from ours.
