Behind the Scenes: My Organic Gardening Journey

For me, my terrace garden, which I call Green Heaven, is more than just a hobby. It is my therapy. Building it with my own hands and sweat has taught me that the process, or what I call 'ahista ahista' (slowly, slowly), is just as important as the harvest. You will see in these photos that it is not all perfectly manicured rows of vegetables. It involves messy soil mixing, back-breaking work, and constant problem-solving.

I recently had to uproot my garden and empty my space, which was a difficult moment for any plant parent. However, gardening is about believing in tomorrow. Whether you are dealing with pests, poor drainage, or just don't know where to start, you are not alone. My work is about keeping it simple and practical for everyone. I use common household items to feed plants, fix potting mixes with basic ingredients like river sand, and set up protections like green nets to handle the Delhi heat. If you are starting out or just stuck with a plant that won't thrive, remember that every mistake is just a lesson waiting to happen. Let's grow together.
