What I Learned Starting a Balcony Garden

I always thought gardening required a backyard.

But last summer I tried growing herbs and tomatoes on my small apartment balcony.

At first I made every beginner mistake possible:
too much water, small pots, poor sunlight.

Some plants died quickly.

But after learning a few basics, things improved a lot.

Now my balcony has basil, tomatoes and a few herbs that actually grow well.

Honestly, it became one of the most relaxing parts of my routine.

If anyone wants to start, I wrote a more detailed guide here:
