Need to figure out the missing part
This was my last attempt for this Winter. Last time when I went to my native for our mega cricket event, I was disappointed to see the result of all my hard work since October.
Certainly not the expected outcome of all the effort that had been put since October.
It was a lot of effort to take plants, soil, fertilizers from here, and do it all myself, but the only reason I keep doing this is to provide some smile to Parents. Everyone loves flowers and so do they, but they are not in a position to do it themselves. So I do all the hard work and tell Mom to water the plants, that too in a balanced way. Too much of water is not good for plants, in Winter.
And then this was the growth in 2 weeks, I take photographs and keep it for comparison, so that I can track. When I went after two weeks, I felt, they are not growing as desired. Because the same plants I have planted in our apartment society was looking much better. So I thought, may be they are not getting enough Sunlight, so I moved them to another place.
There was improvement, but not as expected. Gardening is so much learning, I am still not able to know why they have not grown the same, but certainly this is a learning for next year.
Mom already communicated that to me, so I bought, five plants at 100/- to close this season and replanted them after taking out of those small containers.
So overall not very happy with the garden at Native,
but there were some other reasons to be happy.
Lots of apple berries this year.
And then this.
Some real happiness there , another inspiration for me to go. And before I wind up this post, a fun fact.
Every time I go home, I bring a lot of papaya, as it's the most natural organic vegetable without a lot of effort. There is one tree in the front, and these above two were readily available. But then there is another tree on the backwards, which was having a lot of them.
But there was no way to get them - every piece of big bamboos we have did not reach there.
So what I did is shake the tree heavily based on Mom's suggestion, and see what happened.
Almost each of them was having some sort of injuries 😀, but at least, we could eat them raw. In the process of getting a good one from another tree, I hit one papaya with a bamboo, but then to catch the papaya, left the bamboo, which fell on my leg and a finger was badly damaged. Learning never ends 😄
Now some more photographs from our garden.
The violet flower is a saver in the Winter, but we can get this much flower every day from the garden, something that is impossible in the city. But good that, I have some good news from my garden in my society, more to come on that...
