I was so shocked with the prices of vegetables. It increased a lot in the past couple of weeks. I told myself I need to take growing veggies seriously. I enjoy it anyway, plus it will benefit us. After successfully growing bell peppers, I embarked on expanding my vegetable garden.
Got some tomato, cucumber, and carrot seeds the other day. I wanted to get some lettuce seeds, but it wasn't available. I went for Ramgo seeds to increase my chances of getting the seeds to sprout. The day before I bought seeds, I planted the mustasa seeds which I already had on hand. I was so surprised it sprouted the day after! Using a seed tray with cover really helps.
I went to work and planted the new seeds I got the day after. I had prepared the trays already last weekend. It's pretty cold lately, so I hope keeping the trays covered will help. The mustasa sprouted so fast, I'm just a bit anxious it's getting leggy since the sun hasn't been consistent. I'll move them if needed, but I'll need to keep them elevated so snails don't get to it before they grow!
I hope I see more of the seeds sprout this weekend. I'm not sure if it's the best time to do this since the weather is quite cold especially in the evenings! My bell peppers are growing nicely and I'm seeing more growing since I re-potted them. I still need to re-pot two more and will do it this weekend.
While waiting for the seeds to sprout and with the bell peppers now more stable. I'll work on the orchids we rescued from my childhood home. To be honest, I haven't had that much success with orchids! Gah! They're so hard for me. I have to pray for guidance to successful save what Mom left!
