The charm of a garden awakened by the rain...

Hello my friends? How are you? As a beautiful weekend is about to begin, you must be spending your time productively and efficiently. Due to some difficulties in your personal life, you have had to stop several activities that you have been doing continuously for the past few months. Among them, farming is a prominent one. Due to the high inflation and high prices of goods, it is also becoming more difficult to obtain food for the household. Therefore, not eating is not a solution, and finding a solution is our responsibility. Although I do not have time to engage in gardening, my parents continue to engage in farming.

My mother has planted a type of spinach called tree spinach in various places in the garden. It grows very well in compost and cow dung. Tree spinach, which has high medicinal properties, is rarely eaten because it is not as tasty as vine spinach. However, the taste can be enhanced by adding something like lentils. In addition, you can get more flavor by adding spices.

Indian penny wart is a very valuable medicinal plant. It grows in clusters and was also cultivated in our garden to increase its distribution. Since a bundle of Indian penny wart leaves is sold at a high price in the market, cultivating it in a garden is a relief for the economy. With the increase in rainfall, the growth of Indian penny wart accelerates. The soil can be slightly dug and loosened and Indian penny wart roots or small plants can be planted.

Spinach is a vegetable that can be used as an iron-rich food. My parents have cut and planted the spinach vines in a way that allows them to spread. Even if several spinach plants are planted in the same place, it is not a problem for growth. A garden is a growing environment that has high potential to meet the nutritional needs of the family next to the house. So I encourage you to do some gardening when you have time.

We are all very concerned about the food shortage that has arisen with the economic crisis that some people are currently facing. Also, with the increase in the prices of available food, everyone has paid more attention to gardening than usual. But during such a crisis, you may have a question about how to get the maximum yield from gardening. You can get proper advice from a Department of Agriculture.

Our parents have grown several types of chili plants in their garden, which are more spicy than we eat or need. One of the most common mistakes we make at the beginning is to rush to grow more than we need. Therefore, plan your garden carefully and start small. Therefore, you should only grow the amount that your family will eat at first.

Ginger is a crop that can yield a very successful harvest. Ginger, which is sold at the highest price in the market, can certainly be grown in your garden, and you can also earn additional income. When choosing crops, crops that can yield more from a small area are more important. Choosing the right land is very important in gardening. This is because choosing infertile land gives infertile fruit.

Many people who live on small plots of land and want to start a garden have a problem with the lack of space to grow. But it is not a big deal. Because you can use your small space effectively by using small containers and pots.

My parents also grow in pots, polythene bags, etc. to spread more plants. If growing in pots, you can fill the pots with equal parts of topsoil, rotted manure, and fertilizer. Then, water the seedlings twice a day, morning and evening, until they sprout. When watering the plants, always remember to pay attention to the root zone.

My parents do not hesitate to use all the things they throw away. Nowadays, you can see how many people have used even discarded tires for gardening. You can see the ability to decorate even a wall in a beautiful way. Even discarded coconut shells, when used as a bed cover, not only decompose into the soil but also become fertilizer for the soil. Many people say that we do not have space to grow a garden, but even the garden where they live can be made productive.

Your garden is looking fresh and green. A bit of rain surely helps!
Nice to see the variety of different crops you grow.
It is nice that you can grow some food for your own usage. It is fun and can save you some money too.

Yes, you are right. Rain is definitely a factor in plant growth. If we cultivate our own crops for our own consumption, we will be able to obtain nutritious and fresh crops.

Rain, aside from being aesthetically beautiful, brings nutrients to plants; I love it because it makes my plants even more beautiful than what can be achieved with any fertilizer.

On another note, I find the decision to grow your own food very admirable and correct, as it helps save a little money and promotes healthier eating. One of the plants that caught my attention was the chili, because here we also grow a similar plant that isn’t spicy; it’s a very good seasoning for meals, and it’s called sweet pepper.

Finally, spinach is also a great nutritious option, and the good thing is that it’s somewhat resilient. And how delicious it is!

Absolutely agree with you. Nowadays we are buying vegetables from market but it's not fresh. So why we think to grow corps in our garden.
