About Urban Gardening Consultation
Why I Love Urban Gardening
Gardening in the city is my stress-buster and a way to eat clean. I do all my planting and experimenting on a regular 30x50 plot in Bengaluru - no fancy farmhouse, just a normal city space. If you think your balcony or small yard can't give you organic fruit, trust me, I thought the same once.
What I Bring
I’ve built a dense edible "urban jungle" on 1500 sq ft, growing stuff like avocado, dragon fruit, chikoo, and even lychee right in pots. I prefer everything chemical-free and believe composting is half the magic. I’ve made more mistakes than I can count - killed plants, had compost bins go smelly, but every goof-up taught me something useful.
What We’ll Cover
- Choosing what to grow for Bengaluru climate gardening tips and your available space
- Balcony vegetable garden setup and container tricks (even big fruit trees in pots)
- Easy ways to compost kitchen waste at home, with whatever you’ve got lying around
- Attracting birds and butterflies (my garden is a regular adda for them)
- Creating a peaceful vibe with small touches: vertical gardening, water bowls, and wind chimes
How I Work
I handle this alongside my day job, so our chat will be online and straight to the point. Ask anything - I've probably tried it, failed at it, and found a workaround. Gardening’s a long game, and messing up is normal. I’ll help you get started, and you’ll figure out the rest as you go.

My Story
Hi, I’m Sumesh. My hands have always found their way into the soil – blame my dad for that! Our Bengaluru home started out as a dry patch, but now it’s a proper urban jungle, thanks to years of digging, planting, and a lot of trial and error. My wife’s the real MVP, cheering and critiquing. Weekdays, I’m a corporate guy. Weekends, I’m out with my plants, making pookalams, pazhakalams, and chasing birds from the window. Nature keeps me sane, and I hope it rubs off on my daughter too.
