Hi Dr D.K. Sadana,
Welcome to KGI.
I have an A-frame house, but I understand a lot of people use the flatroof for gardening.

Doctor sahib, your comments are great source of encouragement for me. Organic Farming is my passion since last five years and photography since school days.
BEETAL is the breed I have... giving 2 to 2.5 kgs/day.
GulGul! I am glade you have. Can you tell me what is the best use of this GulGul? Over here people say its good for cows, it is too sour to eat.. my mother use this for ACHAR (Pickle). This is the only way we are consuming it.

Sounds like you live in an important agricultural area. I do too. Here our farmers grow wheat, barley, potatoes, corn, beans, etc. I have a small garden in which I grow lots of culinary herbs, lettuce/spinach, green beans, tomatoes, carrots and beets. I wish I had more space, and also better light. Neighboring trees and buildings give my garden too much shade for optimal harvests. I hope you enjoy KGI.
