A Little Update

December is a busy month - having to have guests coming over almost every weekend, I had very little time for gardening. Arugula seedlings are rather stagnant in growth.

Carrot, fennel and tomato seedlings.

Avocado seedling is pretty big now. I notice the shoot growth is visibly faster than the root system.

Super growing potatoes!

One of my cut hydrangea bloom rooted so I stuck into the soil for a chance of growing.

Trying out a new self-watering system using a wine bottle.

Picked this pack up from Starbucks at my mom's! The Starbucks at our place runs out quick.

New Foreign Additions

BF's mom and younger sister are here for a visit and the mom brought some foreign friends - Royal Red Amaryllis, Aloe Vera from Gran Canaria and 2 varieties of cactus.




My seedlings are doing pretty well.
True leaves of tomato seedlings have took its form and the roots have rather long and already intertwined with one another. I'm going to have problem separating them out soon.

Not all powder puff aster seeds germinated - maybe they need a little more time. 

Cute arugula seedlings.

Fennels and carrots too have its true leaves.

My seed potatoes grew!


 Finally hung the purslane using my homemade pot hanging rope.

Bought 2 packs of vermicompost to try out since home composting is not possible at the moment.
