📖 Sample Chapter
You have a balcony. You have a craving for homegrown tomatoes. And you have absolutely no idea where to start.
Most gardening books won't help you. They were written for people with yards, raised beds, and unlimited ground space. They assume you have soil beneath your feet. You don't. You have concrete, a railing, a weight limit, and maybe six hours of sunlight if you're lucky.
That gap — between generic gardening advice and the real constraints of balcony growing — is exactly why this book exists.
This is not a book about gardening in theory. It's a book about growing real food in the specific, complicated, often frustrating space you actually have. We're talking weight-bearing limits that can crack a floor slab if you ignore them. Wind exposure that will shred a pepper plant overnight. Sunlight patterns that shift with the seasons and the angle of your building. Drainage that becomes your neighbor's ceiling leak if you get it wrong.
