Our governing has been encouraging the citizens to plant vegetables in the yard. Well, we have been planting since we moved here about five years ago, so it is really not new to us. It has actually been a part of our lives.
But recently, in support of the government's project to plant, plant, plant, the Department of Agriculture has been giving seeds for free. We are very much willing to oblige. 😍😂
We were given bitter gourd seeds, pechay, okra, eggplant, bell pepper, and many more.
Today, I transplanted pechay from the pot to the garden plot.

These are two weeks old seedlings. We could have transplanted these little sweethearts earlier, but since there was a storm last week, we couldn't.
But they are already a little bit cramped in these pots, so there is really an urgent need to transfer them.
"I grow plants for many reasons: to please my soul, to challenge the elements, or to challenge my patience, for novelty, or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy of seeing them grow."
--David Hobson
So today, it's time to transplant them in two plots.
I'm really hoping that they could withstand the harsh sun now. Hopefully, hopefully.
