Forays into Kitchen Gardening


I've been trying hard this last month to grow spinach, coriander and chilli in pots in my balcony. While the seeds germinate well, the pigeons around are proving to be a real menace, eating up the saplings before they have a chance to grow. Pot covers are not good enough deterrents, it seems, with the pigeons being able to toss them away and have a go at the poor saplings. It is time for a sturdy wire mesh.
