Kitchen Gardening Techniques
Vertical Gardens

- More efficient use of space compared to horizontal gardening
Multi-storey Garden
- Involves filling bags, sacks, or containers with soil and manure
- Crops are planted on tops or sides
- Requires little space
Container Garden
- Crops are planted in containers like earthen pots, wooden boxes, or plastic containers
- Not suitable for deep-rooted crops
Simple Drip Garden
- Uses plastic bottles and jerricans
- One container filled with soil and crops, the other with water above
- Tiny holes allow water to drip down
Wick Garden
- Utilizes underground irrigation systems
- Container for planting crops placed on top of a water-filled container
- Wick draws water up to feed crops, ideal for small spaces
