What is square foot gardening? A simple, unique and versatile system that adapts to all levels of experience, physical ability, and geographical location. Grow all you want and need in only 20% of the space of a conventional row garden. Save time, water, work and money! I am following the square foot gardening method, and I'll be using it as a reference through out the blog. Square foot gardening invented by the genius Mel Bartholomew! Learn more about it in his website , Or order his very very valuable book. It may come in downloadable PDF files too, if you search. 
Here are the 10 things that make SFG different from traditional row gardening:
- Layout. Arrange your garden in squares, not rows. Lay it out in 4′x4′ planting areas. Companion plants can help each other grow bigger and tastier!
- Boxes. Build boxes to hold a new soil mix above ground. Your existing soil doesn't matter! forget about it, and just worry about the new soil called Mel's Mix.
- Aisles. Space boxes 3′ apart to form walking aisles. It makes it easier to walk and sit around the boxes, especially when your plants get really big and spill out of the boxes a little.
- Soil. Fill boxes with Mel’s special soil mix: 1/3 blended compost (please please make your own! The compost sold in Kuwait is a little shady) , 1/3 peat moss, and 1/3 coarse vermiculite (All available in True Value).
- Grid. Make a permanent square foot grid for the top of each box. A MUST!
- Care. NEVER WALK ON YOUR GROWING SOIL. This is how the soil stays so fluffy and airy for the roots stay happy. Tend your garden from the aisles.
- Select. Plant a different flower, vegetable, or herb crop in each square foot, using 1, 4, 9, or 16 plants per square foot. You might, for example, plant a single tomato in a square, but you’d plant 16 carrots in another. Using this system, you can cram a lot of garden into a small space and still get excellent yields.
- Plant. Conserve seeds. Plant only a pinch (2 or 3 seeds) per hole. Place transplants in a slight saucer-shaped depression. This means you wont waste seeds! The traditional way is to plant lots of seeds then cut off the majority and leave the strongest.
- Water. Water by hand from a bucket of sun-warmed water.
- Harvest. When you finish harvesting a square foot, add only compost and replant it with a new and different crop.
I decided how big of an area I want to use, I am placing my SFG on the roof of my house, which I made sure received at least 8 hours of full sun. I am going big and starting with lots of boxes. So after thorough planning I decided I want two 4x4 square foot boxes (which is the standard) two smaller boxes for root vegetables like carrots and potatoes, and one long box for herbs. You can download the guide I created for the carpenters here . Its not the most accurate illustration of what the boxes look like in the end, but the numbers are right.
You can change the measurements how ever you like, most importantly, you have to make sure each square is 1ft squared in size= 30 cm. Also Most vegetables require 6 inches of soil, I've decided to use around 20cm. If the boxes are placed over a garden/soil, they don't need bottoms. In my case, I have to apply bottoms since they're going to be in the roof. The bottoms are waterproof 2cm thick plywood. The plywood has to have around 0.6 cm holes drilled in each square, plus in the corners. My boxes have weird squares in the plywood because the carpenter mistook 0.6cm for huge 6cm holes, I had them fix them without problems. Potato/Carrot beds: 
One of the 4x4' beds with the herb bed: 
You can of course build your own boxes, and a very detailed guide is in the book. Im sure its much more fun.I don't have the skill or time, so I had the boxes done for 50KD total, 30 for the wood and 20 for the building. The work was done by Ibrahim in Classic Design Carpentry : 
Don't forget, you can collect sawdust for free and use it as a carbon source in your compost! Maybe I'll paint the outsides of the boxes with the kids before the season starts, what do you think?

Здавствуйте, у меня 2-х комнатная квартира https://www.rvtv.ru/variant-pereplanirovki-2k-kvartiry-ii-18.html

Возможно узаконить или придется ломать стену?
Здравствуйте, Юлия https://rvtv.ru/
Я бы не советовала приобретать такую квартиру, поскольку нужно будет техническое заключение о возможности изменений, связанных с проемом в несущей стене https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplanirovka-odnokomnatnoj-kvartiry.html
Если такая перепланировка проведена в панельном доме, заключение, вероятно, будет отрицательным https://www.rvtv.ru/razdelenie-kvartir.html
Чтобы сказать точнее, можно заранее проконсультироваться с проектировщиками дома https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplanirovka-kvartir-ii-18.html
Если заключение не будет положительным, узаконить такую планировку будет невозможно https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplanirovka-odnokomnatnoj-kvartiry.html
Проект перепланировки заказывают в компании, у которой есть допуски СРО на выполнение проектных работ https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplan-kvartiry.html
СРО — это саморегулируемая организация, по факту — реестр всех порядочных строителей https://www.rvtv.ru/poryadok-oformleniya-pereplanirovki.html
Раньше строителям выдавали лицензии на проектирование, а теперь выдают допуск на проектирование, свидетельство о допуске и вносят в реестр этой СРО https://www.rvtv.ru/soglasovan-pereplan.html

Узаконить перепланировку квартиры можно и в судебном порядке https://www.rvtv.ru/razdelenie-kvartir.html
Основанием для подачи иска в суд может быть отказ администрации в согласовании перепланировки, жалоба соседей или инициатива самого заявителя https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplanirovka-kvartir-ii-18.html
В последнем случае в иске следует просить суд о сохранении помещения в перепланированном состоянии без согласования комиссии из администрации https://www.rvtv.ru/pereplanirovka-odnokomnatnoj-kvartiry.html
увеличивать площадь кухни, используя для этого квадратные метры туалетной или жилой комнаты (как и увеличивать площадь санузла за счет жилой комнаты или кухни) https://www.rvtv.ru/perevod-kvartiry-zhilfond.html
Также перепланировка квартиры полностью запрещена, если речь идет о переносе кухни в жилую комнат
What we’re covering
• Zelensky in Washington: European leaders will join Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, as he meets with US President Donald Trump this afternoon. Trump said Zelensky must agree to some of Russia’s conditions — including that Ukraine cede Crimea and agree never to join NATO — for the war to end.

• Potential security guarantees: At last week’s summit with Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to allow security guarantees for Ukraine and made concessions on “land swaps” as part of a potential peace deal, US envoy Steve Witkoff told CNN. Zelensky suggested that such guarantees would need to be stronger than those that “didn’t work” in the past. Russia has yet to mention such agreements.

• On the ground: Zelensky condemned Russia’s latest strikes across Ukraine, which killed at least 10 people, saying the Kremlin intends to “humiliate diplomatic efforts” and underscores “why reliable security guarantees are required.”
