Hey, thanks for reading my blog. Are you based in South Africa now.. I know someone from there and she´s mentioning that it will soon be winter season over there. Well, as for the backyard, you may want to have a small greenhouse so that you could start planting seeds when the cold winter is over. There are small greenhouses that could be used if you want to start with seeds... Or maybe, get those grown up newbies that only needed to be transferred to soil. One by one, if you accumulate other plants, you´ll surely have plenty of greens.
