The lockdown,gloomy sky, lack of sunlight and the long nights will drive anyone into in their right mind insane. We all know that stress can harm our health, so during this difficultnational lockdown we must turn to activities that can be done in our home – one of those activities is gardening.
The power of gardening
It does not matter if you grow flowers on a windowsill, plant little seeds in your bedroom pots,or spend every weekend in your garden, you know how special gardening makes you feel. It is not about the size of the lawn or how much time you spend digging the site, but about the joy, satisfaction, and relaxation you get from it.
Working with plants and getting together a beautiful landscape of vegetables and flowers Is easily one of the mostfun, relaxing, and affordable ways of relieving stress. There are several simple repetitive gardening actions such as: planting and watering, pruning, weeding, and harvesting; every morning you run outside to see where and what bloomed – these are types of activitiesthatdistract you from boredom,anxiety, and heavy thoughts.
Vegetable plants are much easier to care for than for decorative plants, so gardening is not just a way to get extra physical activity, but also a source of fresh, and organic vegetables and herbs all year round. We understand that it is harder to grow during the winter season, however there are many vegetables that grow just fine including:broccoli, cauliflower, cabbages, parsnips, kale, leeks, and parsley.
You do not even need a large amount of land to make gardening a fascinating activity, all it takes is a 2 x 4 metre space where you can lay down your soil to make it a creative and satisfying process.
However, if you are feeling crafty – and have a decent budget and home space,you can build a small greenhouse in the garden and grow crops throughout the entire year. In high-quality greenhouse structures, you can achieve a good microclimate, which allows you to use itfull year-round and harvest an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables.
It iswonderful to live in a house with a garden,but what if you live in an apartment? Do not worry – you still can get your own mini-garden and grow tons of vegetables, herbs, and fruits.
Forget about your backyard or greenhouse, all you need are some potsand baskets on a windowsill or a balcony. In this way, you will be saving yourself a lot money, time and effort trying to sort out a backyard garden. The amount of joy you get out of gardening can easily be fulfilled in your apartment and you wont even need to walk outside to the see the beautiful vegetation you have created.
Building your gardening paradise provides an effective way of releasing tension accumulated in the body during the working week, and by waiting for sprouts, growth, flowers,and fruitsis a lesson in developing endurance from nature itself.
