Live in an apartment. Took a tomato seedling from my mom, doing great. It's over a meter tall now.
Have a lot of other plants in the apartment, but this one's the favourite for now

nice, what's your growing process?

>>2994039
I used a mound planting method in a horseshoe shape, and then I planted radishes first. Other than that, I've been watering in the morning before work, and once at night. I used heirloom seeds, no gmos. And if one plant has one thing growing on it, I process it and dry the seeds and just pop them in the dirt. I use balanced soil and treat what I see with corresponding minerals. I'm waiting for the rainy season to be over before I plant my corn.

what are some things you look for when amending your soil?

Can I ask how to grow weed here? Or is there a better place to ask for that info

>>2994141
what growing zone do you live in? https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/. you'll have to look at your hardiness zone and see when the best time to plant is. no clue on actual growing maybe someone else can chime in

>>2994143
Zone 7 I believe

Perfect timing, I was wondering who I should ask for advice.
I've been germinating citrus seeds whenever I got some (various types: clementines/sweet clems, tangerines, satsumas, whatever's nice and large when I'm at the store), I believe all of these were planted sometime in March. The biggest ones are now slightly past 10 cm or 4 inches.
I know trying to grow a tree from a seed is a fool's errand (especially in the UK), but I figure with large enough numbers something will survive long enough to turn from a seedling into a sapling.
What I need now is some expert opinions on how to take care of them so that they don't die.

there's a tree and shrub thread here that can probably help >>>2989977

>>2994239
Thanks, I'll ask over there as well.

hi anons, I'm good with plants but so far only in planters and pots, but we just bought a house with a front yard similar to pic related.

A bit bigger but also surrounded by concrete on all sides, I was wondering how I could clean up the soil since it's been there for so long and the previous owners were doing some bullshit on it (it's got some spray painted stones and shit).

I wanna turn it into a proper (if small) garden; should I remove all the soil and replace it or can I add new soil on top and pray? Should I mix it? Any type of soil?

What about plants? I'd like to stay away from your standard lawn but rather add something pretty.

I don't have a faucet on my porch garden, but I want to set up a drip irrigation system using a pump and water cistern. Are there any solutions that don't come loaded with an extra helping of BPA and PFAS?
