Spewing that I’m not in great physical condition now and can’t really garden. Seed libraries are around if anyone wants to try it.
Also I’m not sure of the heavy metal in the soil (the tested map sites on either side vary) so I’d have to do raised beds which don’t move house well. And if I went outside the furry baby would either be crying inside or follow me out and take the chance to abscond. Melbcat’s a fully indoor kitty now.
I know that leafy veg have shallow roots and require less light so maybe that’s a go, window box inside. Maybe more cat grass. Paris Market carrots are also very short and round for containers, I think root veg also need less light than fruiting plants. But I have to fork out more for either self watering pots or watering spikes for bottles because I’m not going to remember.
It all adds up at Bunnings 💸 But I’m just trying to think of something constructive but not overwhelming while I feel like shit

You can get soil samples tested for free in Victoria with the Gardensafe program. You just need to pay for the postage to them.
