When you see your crops they are beautiful, it is so nice to look at them. When my parents go to the farm they are excited, because their labor in the farm is not useless. We are so thankful to the Lord for the things He has done in our lives, we believe the promise of God that what we sow, we shall reap. And this is it....we reap plenty of blessings. Glory and honor belongs to Him.
First cropping...Knowing when to harvest vegetables is equally as important as knowing how to grow them.
Squash is an important source of many nutrients, including vitamin C, magnesium, and other antioxidant compounds.
Squash should develop a tough skin before harvesting. The rind should be hard and cannot be punctured with a thumbnail.
The wonderful health benefits of eggplants are primarily derived from their vitamin, mineral, and nutrient content.For the best quality, vegetables should be consumed soon after harvest. Eggplants should be harvested immature when they are one-third to two-thirds full size. The skin should be very glossy or just slightly turning dull. If the skin is dull, and the fruit starts to turn yellow, this indicates over maturity; the fruit will be seedy and often bitter. Harvest using pruning shears since the stem is tough.
When harvesting, you are removing a plant part that is still alive. The harvested vegetables consume energy from their stored food reserves and lose moisture through transpiration. This eventually leads to reduced quality and vitamin content.
Thank you for reading and upvoting my post. God bless us all.
