Cycle Section: Vegetable Garden

It all started with my first attempts at “terrace gardening”. It is amazing what you can grow in a small space using space-saving solutions. The first tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers I grew on the balcony gave me so much joy that I have been trying to cover some of my vegetable needs myself ever since. Small raised beds or planting beds on the terrace are a nice addition to my hydroponics.

I completely avoid using artificial fertilizers. I fertilize and water my soil-based vegetable crops with nutrient-rich water from my aquaponics systems or with insect manure and humus from my insect farms.
