I just realized I do have a garden this year after all. Even tho I did not have to plant it. A field of wild strawberries that will soon be ready to pick.











The strawberry plants are the little 3 leaf things growing close to the ground.

Loool bro guven, i actually thought that was urs in the beginning! looool
urs is so boring.
You know your supposed to PLANT things in it.
OTHER than grass
lol

our garden is sooooooo tinyyy, its like literally 6 x 10!! and HALF of it is leeks which are my parents , while the other half is supposed to be mine, full of strawberries, corn, lettuce, red radish, white radish, and some other stuff...but well...its been liek 4 yrs of me waiting for the lettuce and corn...i guess this is what happens when i dont stand up for 'my' garden when my brother tries to pour lawnmower oil all over it.
the strawberries are rotten, radish is tiny and sick, and corn and lettuce...never came up

I need to hire a gardener!

It's actually quite inspiring to see somebody with a passion for gardening. I really like the idea of growing your own fruit & veg.

Plus, compost heaps are all-important, bearing in mind that as God's creation we have a responsibility to protect the environment!

You will probably find worms in all compost areas ... after all worms love to eat decaying vegetation.

I looked up the difference between a standard compost heap and a wormery, and found this:
Quote:
A wormery is a special bin which contains worms and when organic matter from a kitchen is added to the bin, the worms digest and break it down into a rich compost.

A compost heap performs the same function as a wormery but it does it on a larger scale and it uses bacteria and micro-fungi to perform the job.
A wormery is usually smaller and more compact. It is also designed to deal with smaller quantities of waste, and generally a wormery produces less odour, which makes it ideal for placing outside the backdoor close to the kitchen. On a domestic scale a Wormery also works faster than a traditional compost heap.

Your horses are welcome in this gardening thread, Woodrow.
As are your wild strawberries.

Are your wild strawberries the same as our alpine strawberries, Woodrow?
The leaves look very similar.
The berries are small, but tend to be stronger in flavour than commercial strawberries.

Well, let's just say I know a bit about vegetables ...

The plant in the front corner looks like coriander, or perhaps flat-leaved parsley - but I could be wrong (the lady in the local Muslim grocers always used to laugh at me because I mixed the two up all the time ...)

Clearly I know my vegetables better than my herbs ...

Yes they are basically the same plant. Although the berries are much smaller then the commercial grown ones, they taste many times better.
