Outdoor roof garden in the city working with wat I've got

[Budafly]

Sundays are becoming my gardening days on the roof, I planted some bell peppers and summer squash yesterday. The forget me nots are starting to sprout, and it looks like the bachelor buttons are getting ready to start budding soon. the zinnias are coming along too, and the first set of real basil leaves are coming in they look so cute.

Moved the strawberries to the edge of the roof so they will get more sun

I’m afraid of heights too lol if only I had a harness I have 2 satellite dishes out there I could attach it to, it crosses my mind from time to time if I fall I’m fucked

[Budafly]

Our first grow we actually started out there b4 we got the tent setup. I camouflaged it with fake flowers

[Budafly]

The zinnias really perked up over night I am getting better at watering them esp w the temps warming up it can get HOT out there at times, just gave them all a water with fish shit

So far the bachelor buttons have 3 buds that are forming two pinkish, and one white. Cant wait for my first flowers from seed to bloom I even went out and checked on them last night when I got home. Some of the petals on the begonia are turning brown not sure what’s going on with that I did move it to a spot that gets partial shade and I rotated it so the brown petals are facing away from the sun.

Bachelor buttons starting to bud

Begonia older flowers starting to brown the newer ones seem to be doing fine maybe to much direct sun idk

Begonia, zinnias, bachelor buttons, and pansies

Looking good! Begonias are shade plants btw

[Budafly]

Ok where I have it atm it gets part sun part shade. Think I’ll move it to a more shaded area and see how it goes thanks again I’d be lost without this site

[Meesh]

Give it as much shade as possible. Begonias are annuals, my guess is the hotter it gets the faster it’s gonna stall and die off. When it dies, don’t think it’s you, that’s how they roll.

[Budafly]

I’m going 2 move it to the opposite side of the house it only gets the late afternoon sun

[Budafly]

Moved the begonia to the opposite side of the house looks so lonely out there all by itself. I’ll have to get some more flowers that like shade good thing I work rite next to a farm I’ll stop in 2day and see what they have

‘red plant district’!

kidding aside, my batchelor buttons are still hanging in there but barely…i’ll get a picture before they crap out completely.

out here, they’re great attractors of pleasant, chirpy little finches that eat their seeds as well as good bugs.

fwiw, i haven’t watered mine all year & it’s a drought year.
