Hydroponic gardens?

Posted January 25, 2023 by hontrapoints in Gardening

Hello gyns,

I'm really new to any sort of gardening or plant keeping and would really like to start a little herb garden, but unfortunately live in an apartment without any garden space or even grass.

Have any of you tried a hydroponic garden? If so, thoughts? Is it worth it? Do they actually work? Any tips or tricks for them?

Thank you for any info or opinions <3

Are there any interesting, well-developed female characters? I had a hard time with Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell because it had a such a boys' club atmosphere.

Talking about any characters is a bit of a spoiler so I've tagged it. So, there aren't many characters mentioned, and those are mostly male. I would say only the main, male character has any real development, but it's quite a solitary sort of book and characters are closer to plot-devices or mysteries than people (which is not to say they're wooden; they're quite lively, we just don't see them in much detail). There are probably more birds than people in the book. So in terms of representation, I would recommend it for bird-representation or statue-representation but not any variety of positive human representation.

I haven't read it but I've been wanting to for a while, I think because I saw someone recommend it on here. I have a hold on the ebook version from my local library but I have to wait 10 weeks 😩 (I've also had this hold for several weeks already...)

Thanks for this. I'm on the waitlist at the library.

This is a circle for discussing plants, fungi, and slime mold. From flower beds to hobby farms; from your dying windowsill basil plant to kitchen gardens; from wild mushrooms to your failed tabletop mushroom kit.

If the species falls under the aforementioned categories, you are welcome to share advice, success, and failure.

Identification requests are also permitted, just please add the "ID Request" flair to your post.

Lastly, pictures of animals (e.g. bees) in your gardens are also welcome, but please keep animal agriculture to an extreme minimum--our focus is flora, not fauna.

Guidelines:

Be very careful about revealing your location information. If you need to give details, you probably should be as vague as possible, ie: "a desert", "the southwest US", or "USDA Zone 9"
Be very considerate of the content of photographs and if they reveal anything that can be used to de-anonymize you.

Rules:

No exchanges. Don't give anyone your address.
Don't ask anyone for their specific location.

Additionally, the Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are both enforced here.
