Questions about plots
Do I have to pay for a plot?
This concept doesn’t say. A real garden would explain any fee here, along with what it covers, such as water and insurance.
What can I grow?
Food, flowers and herbs. Nothing invasive, and nothing taller than the fence on the north side, so the neighbours keep their sun.
What if I go away for a few weeks?
Tell the roster. Someone from the twilight watering group can keep an eye on your bed.
Can I share a bed with a friend?
Yes. Two households often share one, which halves the weeding.
