One Small Gardening Step at a Time

Over a week ago, i went on to shop for some seeds that i'll grow at home. A packet each of radish, onion, eggplant, lettuce, ornamental pepper and sweet pepper. I also bought kangkong and tomato seeds which are not shown below.




As I learned, so many seeds, too little space! Before I bought the seeds I fist have to consider their size when they are fully grown. Although I love corn, I can't have that on the small space I have. Another thing I learned, is that there are some vegetables you love that just has to be left  purchased from the market :)

Last Saturday, I already sown the lettuce, ornamental pepper, sweet pepper and eggplant. Just a quick update: my lettuce seed have already sprouted just 2 days after being sown! Well, that was fast... I have to keep reading about the seeds I have planted so I won't be surprised again. I'll post picture of the sprouts tomorrow. I never imagine I would plant lettuce, i would just have been satisfied buying it from the supermarket. It's a nice feeling!

I must admit that the multicolored peppers on the packet was the one that made me but the ornamental pepper, but I read it also has a nice taste. Our family love pickled peppers, I think multicolored pickled pepper would be exciting to see!

We love eggplant at home, we enjoy it boiled, fried, broiled or with other vegetables. It would be good to have this plat at home too.

Aaahhh... I hope everything would turn out to be ok! I welcome every advice from everyone, thank you very much :)

@mat jon: that's right, i can't wait to get home from the office to see if they are already sprouting :) It's also a good bonding experience between me and my daughter who helps me water the the little guys...
