The Home-Gardening:-
v Different types of Roof-Gardening have been done
since ages, but most of them were based on Fruit & Vegetable Farming on
Roof-Tops, using the traditional water guzzling methods, with a belief that
water lasts for ever;
v And it is generally based on Chemical based
Fertilisers, Pesticides, Weedicides, etc..
v Some spaces are filled with exclusively ‘Troughs’
and the other with exclusively ‘Pots’ – with standard sizes, thus failing to use
optimum utilisation of all un-used spaces.
v Further, they do not consider using unused
balcony-spaces and corners of the lower-floors.
v More water is wasted due to vaporization than the
amount actually consumed by plants.
The Organic Vegetable Gardening:-
GTI Garland-Technique differs, with the above practice in,
ü Drip-Irrigation: Using a combination of Pots & Troughs
(specially made-to-order, after freezing the lay-out, interconnected with 5 mm
drip-pipe: of a material which is flexible enough to be bent, anywhere we
require, without choking on itself and hard enough to take the load of the soil
- from Roof-Top to Cellar / Ground-floor, drawing water all the way from the
Roof-Mounted Water-Tank, with adjustable valves, strategically placed, for
cut-off & cut-on, through the drip-holes, to be drilled, which number again
is dependant on the size of the Pot / Trough.
ü Garland-Technique: The Drip-Pipe itself is garlanded among the Pots /
Troughs at Two Inches from the bottom of them to ensure water goes up to the
plant roots, whereby drastically reducing vaporization losses, due to very less
contact with the atmosphere above the surface of the earth in the Pot / Trough.
ü 100% Organic: Uses only Organic Fertilisers / nutrients &
Insecticides / weedicides, none of which even if they go into our food would ever
do any form of harm to our health.
ü Optimum Utilisation of all unused spaces, right from the Roof to the
Ground / Cellar, without obstructing the Pedestrian / Vehicular Traffic or Parking
Convenience.
ü Fit & Forget: Can be tended by a trained Gardner, at a very
nominal cost OR if the owner loves Gardening, nothing like it!
ü Costs less to produce Healthy, Organic Vegetables, when
compared with the off-the shelf, chemical based vegetables. The benefits are even attractive if health
& environmental costs are included and the initial capital cost is
recovered in less than Two Years!!
