Someone asked me why I chose these types of vegetables in my garden . She could not see more traditional Quebecois vegetables such potatoes or carrots.
In fact, I choose vegetables that require water and are there for a short time in spring or late summer for big crops for canning or freezing for the year because I get a small basket Organic Vegetable Farm Cadet-Roussel. I like 2 squares and a serving of closing'm at home (which is very little, but for a first experience that I could ask for more time than I think) I will be able to regulate the demand for water in my garden quite easily with drip tubes, which a firm can do in a big field. So I'll make sure as tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and cucumber which requires a good watering, is enough for good growth. Moreover, as I do not want to throw vegetables (mine and those of the farm) because I could never eat them, I preferred to avoid certain vegetables that the farm grows vegetables and I preferred that we Provide small amounts in the small basket or other varieties.
I was also asked how much it costs the seeds? Well, we had a budget of $ 80 for seeds. We did not fully spent. Moreover, we probably will not use all the seeds this year. I will continue to count the cost for land and transplant pots. I will also try to calculate the cost of electricity used for lighting in my mini greenhouse inside.
So I start my seeds to transplant this weekend.
