rooftop garden in zone 5, Atlantic Canada

Post  dstubbs on 5/11/2010, 10:03 am

Hi,

I just started my first SFG (and my first ever vegetable garden!) on my inner city rooftop. I went a bit overboard, with about 40 different varieties of veggies and herbs, and I'm not sure how well it will all work out as I planted all of it directly from seed, but I'm willing to experiment. It looks like my first few crops are starting to sprout now, which is terribly exciting! I would be interested in hearing from anyone trying rooftop SFG in Atlantic Canada or northern New England (I'm in zone 5) and get your advice!

It looks like you are going to have a beautiful garden there! A rooftop would be a great place to get a lot of sun I would imagine. Do you have any updated pics?
