Paul asks…

Is it a good thing to grow your own fruit/vegetables?

My dad stopped growing our vegetable garden when I was young and never explained why. I’d like to see if anybody out there can give some suggestions on how to get started and if it would be reasonable to do.

GardenersCardiff answers:

Of course it’s a good thing! Just a bit of work. Till the land with a good compost to prepare the soil before planting. Start out with things like tomatoes, green peppers, potatoes, carrots, green beans,lettuce, cucumbers – anything that you like to eat really. I find corn to be hard to grow, since I am limited on space and you need it to be several rows thick.

William asks…

How easy is it to grow your own vegetables?

i am a complete novice but love the idea but wouldn’t know where to start! how do i prepare the soil if i even need to?

GardenersCardiff answers:

The easiest and most successful method is: http://www.squarefootgardening.com/ but it can be costly up front. Be sure you till the soil deep and that the garden patch gets at least 8 hours of sunlight daily. Starting from seed it difficult for certain crops, plants are stronger and hold up better to transplanting. I would suggest going to the library and checking a couple of book on the subject. Good luck!

Mary asks…

Do you grow your own vegetables and stuff and eat them?

?

GardenersCardiff answers:

Always. Healthier that way.

Sandra asks…

If you grow your own tobacco does it still cause cancer ?

My great great grandpa grew his own smoked it and lived to be 106 . If you make your own you don’t have any additives to it . The additives are what make is so addictive and cause cancer . So if you grow your own is it still as bad ?

GardenersCardiff answers:

Hi well I bet ur grandpa didn’t eat all the preservative and tainted food when young as we all do and this causes cancer,homegrown tobacco in it’s purest form still causes cancer coz u are inhaling no matter what BUT hey 106 yrs is testament that grow ur own could be better lol ♥

John asks…

Do you grow your own tobacco?

Where do you get your plants from?
I’m sick of being singled out for taxes. Start taxing fat people, alcoholics, potheads, or rich people!

GardenersCardiff answers:

Yes i do,im in b.c. Canada and some farmers are selling seedlings

i havent yet perfected the art of curing it properly so it is quite a harsh smoke.you cant sell it and even i like to keep quiet about it.

But its a lot of work for little results,the one good thing is that it makes me smoke less…(if thats a good thing)

Charles asks…

Is it legal to grow your own tobacco in Australia for personal use?

If it is legal can I buy seeds on line?

GardenersCardiff answers:

It is not illegal to grow tobacco in Australia. But you cannot sell it to anyone after it has been rendered.
