Project- Growing Garden from Garbage |
|---|
|
Our project - Growing Garden from garbage is found applicable in multi-storied building and this was presented in many societies here as a solution for waste management in Ghorabandha , Jamshedpur. Our aim - Let us grow our own garden in balcony of Multi story Building from waste Steps to be followed 1.Collect 200 lt. capacity drum and place it in a sunny place of balcony. 2.Put small hole ( around 20 mm dia) in 10/12 location in Cylindrical wall at diff. height and angle as shown here in the sketch. 3.Put fiber of sugar cane / news paper in it at bottom around 2 Inches height. 4.Start adding kitchen waste such as fruit and vegetable peelings, crushed egg shells and even used paper towels, (but not fats, meat scraps or dairy products). Now, just wait. From the floor and then up the heap, the whole thing will start to compost and decompose. As the ingredients rot, the microorganisms and worms will migrate upwards in the direction of new food, and compost will carry on forming from the bottom up. Do Not put any plastic and other non decomposable items. 5.After filling of waste in the drum till 4/ 5 inches and put one layer of soil for 1 inch . 6.Keep on adding waste and soil till filling of the drum . It will take 5 years to fill such drum for a family of 4 members . 7.With the increase of height of the compost, small plant of vegetable , flowers etc place in the hole and allow plant to grow. The attached photo was taken from one garden. 8.By this way small garden can be made in each balcony of multi-storied building and daily waste can be disposed off with out throwing in the road. The related information has been shared in the attached slides. |

Thanks to all for your comments.
We made the project , done the experiment. Appreciated by local news paper. But need to reach to all apartments owners of our area to implement it in their home. Then only doing such project is meaningful to us.
You can also try for it. It is very simple.
