We dont seem to get tired of gardening. Kakdah clings to her orchids and ornamental plants, and I more into vegetable gardening. We are coming to a phase of life, much different to what we are used to. The house is typical malaysian double storey. Space is very limited both at the front and back. We have to reduce the number of pots used.
I was flicking through the earlier posts on container gardening. We had gone through several elaborate attempts on growing vegetables in pots such as onions , pakchoy, kale / kailan, daun sup, cabbage, etc.
the old kucai |
Of the many vegetables we grew in Johor, we only take kucai along. Kucai never seems to stop growing, they grow quietly, they stay low and happy. Now onions and spinach start to grow and be part of the ealier pioneers here.
bawang - onions in two small pots |
bayam - spinach in large container |
Yeap, we have a lot more seeds, but they have to wait for their turn.

DeleteSalam Bangchik. Didn't know you are back here in KL. Welcome back! Sounds good to me as I can get tips from you on container gardening now that you are on it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ash..... the place a little bit tight, two mouths to feed on weekdays and additional two over weekends, so vegetable gardening will adapt to the new settings.
DeleteSalam BangChik, hopefully those seedling will grow healthy..
ReplyDeleteSpinach will grow, they are real survivors.... :)
DeleteKucai? It's been ages since I ate one! I remember while young, my mum use to cook this vegetables and a lot of flies come to the house! hahahha....
