adescopy:you can do sack farming without owning a land if u have a space in ur house,where you can place and arrange the sack.no mata how small. for the soil,check around your environment and see if you can spot any good garden soil or black soil.if u can't,then check people that owns flower garden for comercial.some do buy good soil for planting.ask them how you can get one. for manure, i use poultry dungs to counter some treads here.where they complained of not comfortable with poultry dungs. I used three weeks old poultry dungs.also check around your environment to see if u can get one or two bags. 1 Like |
