Welcome to Apple Trees, this site is fanatical about anything to do with apples and apple trees. Our fanaticism started when we planted our dwarf apple tree in our small back garden. Gradually, this became an obsession and to cut a long story short, we bought some land and started our own orchard.

To say our apple trees are our passion would be an understatement. We will be gradually adding lots of photos and apple trees articles, including growing apple tree guides, guide on dwarf apples trees, apple recipes, apple tree growing and much more!

You will be able to buy apple trees here also! Apple trees for sale around the UK will be listed, as will review guides and how to buy apple trees.

   I would charge them some of the crop. You can’t beat fresh veggies. I think the gardener would love that and you won’t have to take care of the yard. Win win for everybody.

   Are all of the roomates going to eat what the garden produces? I think this is the deciding factor. I know rent is high but you are to be blunt sounding a bit petty. Sorry.

   the renter needs to share his crop with the house. . that’s all.

   if no sharing is taking place, subtract the average previous water bill from the last one and ask the gardener to pay the difference.

   I’d prefer the veggies, if it were me!

   not a very big garden, just hope it rains a lot. lol i dont think it would take that much water as long as they didnt hook up a sprinkler. may never have to water it, but===. part of the crop sounds fine, but it dont help the others who are paying part of the water bill. good question.

   Don’t make it complicated. You could just charge them $10 per month. This can be applied to water if you’d like to make things fair for other renters. I prefer indoor gardening with plant containers and flower pots. This way you won’t use as much water and you can still grow plants like tomatoes, herbs, and more. http://www. newprocontainers. com

   Well mister “skin-flint” penny pincher, you must be really hard up for cash, the logical thing is to get “grazing rights” to the crop this will allow you to take what you need when you need it from the garden. . . . . . . . . . . . but if you are one of those who Annalise things here are some factual numbers to base your decision on. . . the average irrigation requirements for agriculture to sub-stain a crop is 5000 gallons to the acre, per watering session(this is 43560 square feet) you have a whopping 130 square feet. . . . . . . . . . so if you do the math you will see that this equates to 0. 11 gallons per square foot per watering session. . . . . . . this also equates to 14. 92 gallons for your size garden. . . here in Florida (i don’t know where you live) but we pay on average 0. 007 (NOT EVEN A PENNY) for our water. . . . using this factor it would cost 0. 10 cents per watering session. . . . . . . . . . in my opinion the value to access fresh veggies. far out weighs the cost of the water
