Aircon Ledge Farming - Herb Garden!

New Pazzion! Aircon Ledge Farming - Herb Garden!

"Farming" on my approximate 3m x 1m air-con ledge (with 2 air con compressors).

The mission is to plant edible stuffs ... Herbs .... that can survive in hot and humid Singapore, in a high rise apartment, and on top of air-con compressor!

Sounds like Mission Impossible ... You Bet! After much trial and errors ... I present the results so far:

From top left to bottom right:
- Oregano,
- Sage,
- Chives,
- Marigold
- Thyme




OK.... Marigold is not a herb but a good companion plant as the flower will emit a sense that deter insects.






Here we have a pot of German Chamomile seedlings from seeds bought from eBay.

Other herbs that are not in the photos are Peppermint, Lemon Balm, Sweet Basil, Red Basil, French Tarragon (not doing too well), Rosemary and Pandan.



The one herbs that did not survive on the ledge is Tulasi. And still looking for a pot of Lavender.

Christmas dinner last year (2010) was an organic home-grown herbs galore meal :) .... need to give these plants a break now :)
