- Sharing which five plants I always grow in my container garden and why -- from vegetables to herbs and more!
Welcome to my urban balcony garden! My name is Ally and I'm so happy to have you here. Follow along as I transform my balcony space into the lush garden of my dreams. With only 84 square feet of space, I pack my balcony with up to 30 plants every Spring & Summer. I've been gardening for a few years now using only containers and limited space, and I'm always finding new ways to use what I grow in my kitchen -- so make sure to subscribe and follow along on my journey to living more mindfully. Peace and love! :)

Hey guys! I’m back with a new video sharing which plants I always grow in my urban balcony garden! Leave a comment down below and let me know which plant you love growing 😊🌱
You peppers are gorgeous 😍
Thank you! 😊🌱
If you clip the tops completely off your basil right above where you see it trying to grow two pairs of leaves lower on the stem, it will produce two new stems where you had only one.
I’ll try that! My basil grows pretty bushy and I am constantly trimming/trying to find ways to use it all
@@MindfulLivingA You can make pesto, squeeze it out on a prchment lined baking tray, and freeze the "pucks" for winter use after the basil dies back. Basil, in my climate, bolts easily to flower so I have always had to keep clipping it back to those lower nodes.
Homemade pesto is my favourite! I love making it as well 😋I haven’t tried freezing it but sounds like a great idea!
WOW your growing all of those vegetables on your balcony and they look GREAT,i just started my bucket garden yesterday,im growing red bell peppers,eggplant and kale i hope it goes well,we'll see,keep up the great work 👍🏾 👏🏾 👌🏾 💪🏾... New Jersey...

My FAV thing to grow in my patio garden is strawberries 🍓 I've got 1 ever bearing plant that has been producing amazing berries for 3 yrs!
OMGosh your garden frog, adorbs!!!🐸
Ooo everbearing strawberries are also a personal favourite of mine too!haha thanks he is sorta like my garden mascot ☺️🌱
I need to try growing lettuce again, maybe i will have better luck in the fall :-)
Love your container garden, great job 👍
Thank you!! 😊 lettuce is definitely one of my favourites to grow!
Love your balcony. Similar to mine in containers and decor colours :) you should upload more! Do the leafy greens do better in partial shade and a bit protected from sun?
Thanks so much! yes I leave my leafy greens in partial shade on my balcony. They receive sunlight in the morning time followed by afternoon shade.
I’ll be uploading more regularly now that my garden is up and running again for the season 😊 so stay tuned! 🌱
any tips for dealing with water runoff to prevent water dripping to the neighbours balcony below?
Honestly, it happens from time to time and I try not to worry too much about it! My balcony is on the third floor and I’ve never had any complaints from my downstairs neighbours. Try not to overwater your plants, most of time i don’t have any water draining off my balcony. If it does, it’s just water and will dry up quickly during the hotter summer months.
