Big Chilli

Will this finally be my first Big Chilli???

Fig Stem Cut

Moved the one in water to a pot yesterday evening as it doesn't seem to be doing well..!
So moral of story is no need to pot in water for so long!!! As long as the roots appear, should start to pot!

Citronella

My citronella which I brought back from Kahang Eco Farm is growing SUPER SLOWING... unlike its cousin, Lemongrass! Lemongrass can branch out so much faster!

Big Black Carpenter Bee

Oh, I think the big black carpenter bee is responsible for many of my winged bean harvest! I saw this sole one hovering around moving from flower to flower in my winged bean vine. They are 100x bigger than the normal bee so it is scary to me when it flies. The buzzing sound really makes me jump! But, thanks to it, I have plenty of winged beans to eat in the days to come!

Papaya

Many fruitlets dropped when it is tiny and green.... Read online there are various reason like inconsistent watering, fruit flies, etc. My neighbour said her friend said it is because it is not deeply rooted enough? Aiyo, I really don't know why it is happening to mine!

Long Bean Green Harvest

Compost

This is end product of doing the kitchen garbage enzyme. This is from my mom. She made using pineapple skin! Great for my garden!
