I find hydroponic veges lacking in taste and texture. For AG tho it is probably the only way and I would grab it with both hands if I were her. PVC pipes filled with the growing medium, pebbles and the nutrient liquid arranged up a sunny wall and away you go.

It is nobody else’s garden Lisa!

Aussie can confirm.


Last time I was in Adelaide was decades ago.....and all I saw was the inside of a Motel Room and a Swimming Complex.


Ohhh that sounds awful. Next time, we're all crashing out at George's place. I'm sure he won't mind lol.

We just need to remember to pack a few shovels and spades so that we can help him out during our stay on his farm Smiley

No not a farm Lisa-- and you might have to take a swag  Tongue

Post a pic of my "garden" soon.. Wink

Crikey, you've got me worried now. Swag? I don't have one of those. I suppose a billy can might be needed too. Does George live in the outback or something?

OK, Bobby, that could well be—I don’t buy veges from supermarkets so didn’t know that.

Some piccies I just took:
Pomegranates:
...

Plums:
...

Corn and beans:
...

Every garden needs some of these:
...
because chook poo is just so valuable. Oh, and the eggs are nice.  Grin

Sounds like a very simplified version--hydro irks me a bit as I always thought it was a bit complicated..

George, I was just reading through this topic and admiring your glorious garden hobby farm.

I so love your passion for being green minded. It's inspirational.

Please tell me these nasty SA bushfires we're hearing about on the news are not affecting you.

Just thought I'd come online and ask (am kinda worried here).

At the supermarket -
the hydroponic tomatoes are much more expensive & taste better.

at the supermarket most fruit and vegies look perfect and the fruit as well as tomatoes taste terrible.
I have not grown any tomatoes this year, but previously the tomatoes I grew tasted fantastic, yet my wife can only eat tomatoes which got no taste, and not the tomatoes I grow, because it must the acid which give the taste, and that gives my wife a sore mouth.
I grow a lot of stone fruit, not very successful this year, but the taste of the apricots and the peaches is really great.
Very hot in Adelaide the last two days; better today.
Bushfires are terrible.
