SublimeSunday: Visiting My Aunt's Organic Vegetable Garden
As I arrived at my Aunt's place I seen the were lots of vegetables planted at her Garden and one of this is this Tomatoe. According to my Aunt this is the first time she planted tomatoes here. This kind of plants only grows in fertile soil and she did not expected that her planted tomatoes bare lots of tomatoes. My Aunt was very surprised and happy to see those tomatoes.
She planted her tomatoes at the front of her house near at the road. Everybody can be abled to see everytime when they will pass in here and in order to the plants grows better and healthy, she cultivated the soil so the roots can expand very fast. After that, she put a wooden poles and tied those tomato plants so it wont lean to the ground. Checking the leaves of this plants is better and important to see if there are appids leaving on it.
In local term, we called it Bawing. One of the best ingredients in stews. My Aunt also planted this kind of plants and it is easy to propegate this. This is a kind of common and popular plant here but very important by adding on stews. It releases pleasant smell on its leaves
While on the other hand, she also planted lots of Chilli pepper just like this one. My Aunt loves to do a simple soysauce using vinegar adding this chilli pepper. Aside of that, she decided to plant lots of eat so that she can be abled to sell to the Market at a great price. She already sell lots of chilli last week and for her this is one of the best Family Business.
Alugbati vegetables is also perfect to plant in loam soil areas. This kind of vine vegetables are highly demand in Market because there are lots of people who wants to eat this leafy vegetables. I was very amazed of my Aunt's style because some of her Alugbati vegetables are planted in an empty plastic bottle. Big empty plastic bottles are very important for my Aunt in fact she recycled lots of it and used as a vegetable pots and seedling trays. She gained this ideas by watching in Social media sites and she applied in her Garden.
This is Chinese Kangkong and it only grows in dry areas. Aside of that this kind of vegetables must be also planted in an open areas were the sun shines directly hit on this plants. The Garden plot were this plants were planted must be cultivated always so the roots can easily expanded and the plants will rapidly grows.
Approximately there are 60 lemon grass also planted at the Simple Garden. Some of it are already harvested and sell to the Market place. It is truly inspired of followed what my Aunts did to her Garden just like by using an organic Fertilizers. This bunch of lemon grass was already applied organic fertilizer and now it gains a good results.
Even if she had only little space for her Garden, she also planted this corn plants to her Garden. Some of it already produced corn grains and it can be harvested by next Month. I was very amazed of my Aunt's Garden and I really like to follow the methods and steps of her Gardening activities. Until next post, have a nice day everyone.
