It was hard work for me, and I got sore muscles every day. So I thought gardening on the balcony would be easier than in a field, since planters aren’t heavy.
It was hard to bring soil from the home center to the balcony, but using a rental field made it easier. I was able to bring a small amount of soil to sow seeds in pots on the balcony.
At the same time, I discovered hydroponics through some books.
I rent a 25-square-meter field and worked the soil with a hoe every day for two weeks.
I needed to make raised beds because the soil was in poor, clay-like condition.
Raised beds improve drainage.
