About Square Roots
I’m a nerd! But I guess you already figured that out, considering I named my balcony gardening page “Square Roots” – I liked the pun, even if my balcony isn’t really square.
What else is there to say? I’m 27 years old, live in Copenhagen, Denmark in the area called Sydhavnen – literally “the South Harbour”; even if I can’t see water from where I live, it’s not too far away. I live on a small one-way street, which isn’t quiet, but not horribly busy either, so not too worried about polluting my brand new veggies. I have 2 cats, Thulhu and Nyarla, who are cute as buttons – two very differently sized buttons!
I have never really gardened before, but autumn 2009 I decided that 2010 should be the year when I started my own veggie growing. I have spent all winter looking for a small garden plot to rent, but they all either have a 10+ year waitlist or are only open for people with specific jobs; so until I get lucky or become a millionaire, I’m stuck gardening on my tiny balcony.
The goal is not to be able to feed myself through the year – but to have fun, learn how to grow stuff and hopefully enjoy whatever fruits and veggies come out of my little adventure!
To green fingers!

Yep, det er i Sydhavnen det foregår – der er ikke meget plads, så det er noget med at tænke lidt kreativt, og da jeg stadig er nybegynder er det ikke alting der overlever, men det er sjovt at prøve – og rart at kunne hente friske ting på altanen
Og ja, verden er lille, men det fandt vi jo ud af allerede da jeg flyttede ind ved siden af dig herovre
Hej du!
Hvordan I al verden klare du “projekt-grønne-fingre” i Sydhavnen? Eller du er måske flyttet videre?
Jeg har jo fået have
Og i dag et højbed, så det var sådan jeg lige faldt over din blog – sjovt, som verdenen kan være lille, ik?
Går det ellers.
