Hello to all.
Alive in a house in a zone they of Rome centers, and she would appeal to me very many to be able to cultivate fruit and ortaggi on the terrazzo.
I have a single doubt:
The terrazzo it is to the first one slowly, therefore little more than 3-4 meters from the level of the road.
The house finds between two sold roads a lot, and the air is saturates of smog.
The terrazzo, and all this that is found outside, constantly it is covered from a patina of smog gray-black, that it gives to think to me: we are sure that this schifezza (than sure it is stirred to the earth) does not poison what I cultivate? Insomma, it yields and ortaggi cultivated in the middle of the smog and micropowders are healthy or risk to ingest still more poisons, besides those which already breath?
I hope that someone can give a sure answer to me in purpose.
And, obviously, I hope of being able to begin to cultivate my city small garden!
Thanks to all, and soon!

Hello Emiliano,
from as you describe yours terrazzo you would have to water with Saint water!
Unfortunately this is the great problem of the city cultivations. Also my it plants some suffer the smog very. But they make us, when I will collect hurries I will have it to wash them very well.
A council for you I have to us: that of tasks of a beautiful greenhouse? Qaunto to less protect you from rains acide! From a glance to the Valex greenhouse from garden cod. prod. 1960438 solos for farti an idea, then you can also construct it alone if you are practical of you make from you!
Hello hello,

Kindest, Kindest,
hoping to make what appreciate, the Circle Eyes Greens of Legambiente di Pontecagnano Faiano (KNOWS), in collaboration with: MibaC (Ministry for the Cultural Assets and Activities - Soprintendenza Archaeological Assets for the Province di Salerno and Avellino), Province of Salerno, National and common Archaeological Museum of Pontecagnano Faiano, is lieto of invitarLa to the convention on the Gardens of City, than thursday 30 will be kept opens them 2009, beginning from hours 9,00, in the splendid frame of the Echo-Archaeological Park to Pontecagnano Faiano (KNOWS).

The City Gardens, or of City, are not a new phenomenon, in our Country.
More diffuse to the North, they are rare, at least in organized form to the South. Today however, they are being multiplied, in answer to the ancestral need of a contact with the earth and to desire of quality and alimentary certainty.
Legambiente Campania, through own Circles, from some years, has given life with succeeding to a experience of City Gardens, entrusted above all, but not exclusively, to old, in Province of Salerno, to Pontecagnano Faiano and Eboli.
Today it thinks that the times are mature for the proposal of creation of a Regional net, with the attempt to redeem peripheral or marginal city areas to the incuria and the degradation, and to value ancient practical and new forms of aggregation.

Hello. I have uncovered after a last interview in tv, your site. Indeed a lot interesting!

A mrs. has received in gift two or three plant some of strawberries, and it has put to them in a vase, that it uses like honor for the garden. I have been able to taste one of the strawberries of that vase, to part water and perhaps a little of smog, they do not receive other The sapore and the color of that strawberry were wonderful, a lot that I have had the immediate comparison with a Macedonian of strawberries acquired to the supermarket: Or
Not there is comparison.

You have suggestions for being able to cultivate a little of plants of strawberries? By now for the next year but at least I will know what I eat.
Thanks!
Ele prov. Como

Hello Ele,
in effects at this point we are in collected full load for the strawberries even if exist of the late varieties that you could, seen also your locality, to plant now.
Council naturally to take to you of plants some from the vivaio.
Regarding the cure it remembers that the peggior enemy of the strawberries it is the water stagnation. If you put them in vase (optimal choice, also I I have them in vase to Rome) insured persons who are very drenato the land - not to the full water saucers under the vase!

On the other hand in the remembered sunnier days than anaffiarle always, at least once a day (second me two are better! Morning and evening).

For the rest he is enough simple like cultivation and the plant is beautifulst to prescind from the gustoso fintofruttorosso.

A last thing, if you succeed tries to hold the fruits not to contact directed with the earth. In the great cultivations they use in fact the pacciamatura with black veil own in order to avoid possible marciscenze!

A salute,
Wings.

Eccomi I have a garden, also rather large and have planted still here from a part lies, rucola, grass cipollina, maggiorana, thymus and basil. and they are well then have put of the gelsomini in order to make the bordura, and from an other part, my suocero, she has created three you space used to garden and all this is much beautiful and comfortable one but. how I eliminate those orribili ants, than between the other things they raise also pidocchi? ok, this year nobody that has a earth handkerchief or a vase with a piantina seems immune to the pidocchi but like free me from the ants? I have already cut once the prezzemolo and son ready for the next cut but it is full of ants and pidocchi. aiutoooooooooooooo! exists a way in order not to lose the harvest? something that is not toxic? also a remedy of the grandmother .....

A salute Ele.
