urban gardens at home

Many are the questions at the time of create a garden, whether it is family, school, urban or community, since it is the same, the the only thing that varies is the place where our garden will be found.

Orchards are spaces that must be constantly attended to by external agents that affect the state of plants and / or fruits that are about to be harvested.

This is a daily job that the crop demands and is that depending on what you want to grow, the garden may need to be in closed or open spaces and before this, who cultivates it, must adjust. Also the irrigation system, if it is automatic or manual, if the crop requires a lot of water throughout the day or not.

The orchards have a very specific difference with the farms and that is that the farms are mass production spaces and orchards are generally smaller spaces that produce a prudent amount for local or personal consumption.

Among the types of crops, as mentioned above, are urban, school and family.

The idea of ​​the urban cultivation It originated in 2008 in an old American city, when people decided to bring the country atmosphere to the city. This idea as time went by, was causing more initiative on the part of people with the intention of install grow beds in different spaces in the area; allowing to supply and support different communities such as schools, restaurants, among others.

Other times, these spaces for urban cultivation are promoted by government entities with the intention of promoting food diversification and is that as an example, school cultivation, as its name indicates, is established in schools and September it is a very favorable date to start a school garden as it is the beginning of a new school day.

Regardless of the type of orchard that is going to be cultivated, the care depending on the climatic zone, are the same and it is that September is a date when the summer crops are harvested and those that will be for autumn-winter are being prepared.

On these dates, plants that include short cycles are grown for what will be in the autumn and winter season or those that can remain throughout the year.
