Ah
! What a beautiful time it was early (Between 5.00 am and 6.30 am )
this morning, working in my little green patch... Harvested all of the
spring onions, but let the onions be . Now waiting for
them to flower . I will still get a couple more harvests of
spring onions before they begin to flower. This time around, my onions
have given me almost six harvests ! (With a couple more to come) And
each time I have counted not less than three hundred individual leaves !
I also found a handful of tender bush beans. And a couple of very young
corn
from the pot, that had broken and fallen down. Wonder what/who did
that... One had just about begun forming the kernels and the other was
very young... Anyway, I know corn is forming
pretty well in my patch. I now have hope for the ones in the ground
patch..
I
finally got around to splitting the bamboo canes and making stakes for
the okra/bhendi. Fixed the stakes to all of the plants that are now
growing well. And also trained the stray vines of the Turkey craw beans
and yard-long beans that are now happily clambering all over their new
trellises.
And finally the best part,
sitting right in the middle of my patch, with the cool early morning
breeze blowing through my hair, having my mug of lime and basil green
tea and feeling like the most beautiful person in the world...
And here are some pictures of the harvest...
