Season to please the soul !

My last post was in April , after which there was not much in my garden and also since we were on the verge of a vacation trip , didn't do much . It was sad to see everything dry up and dusty . 

But i didn't stop from sowing some spinach seeds which thrived in any season here at least for me , but guess what i didn't water so it didn't show up . Recently in September started working on my garden again , that's when my spinach seeds said a Hai , they were the first ones to show up , they never fail ! A very huge harvest for a family of 3 . 



 See the seeds randomly sown came up neat :) and yeah this pic just has some that i could hold for a quick pic , but its so much and i had to remove all at once since they were getting to long and had lots of seeds .

The old seeds and some from the compost mixture which i had added to the soil started coming up , turning my backyard into some greenery , it was the best moment ever . Tulsi started showing up in abundance , lovely they are ! 

I started to test a couple of seeds to check if they will grow , like the bitter gourd, beans , ladies finger , they all turned up like a magic , a miracle happening in my little backyard . It such a pleasure to see them sprout , grow , show some beautiful flowers and then turn into a fruit/Vegge , Love to stand there for hours without my mind drift elsewhere , as if they would grow , if i stayed there . I showed the climbers there way and they took the path .

 

Before my little one was born , we weren't sure which gender , ofcourse it doesn't matter as long as She/he is a healthy one , but we were curious to see him soon . Same way every time i turn up in the morning to check my garden , there's a new one popping up , and i'm not sure which one it is , since i sowed a couple of seeds / compost mixture / some that i threw etc etc , but it didn't matter , it was healthy , green and made my day !
Same with the climbers , not sure if its pumpkins, ash gourds , watermelon etc etc , i don't want to research , ill wait to see the outcome , ill let them grow , i'm sure they wont disappoint me ! 

While spending sometime with the greens ! Tried some art work on the wall ! My little one joined me as well ! we had an awsum time ! He loved the concept of painting on the wall as he wished , wondering how i let him to scribble on the wall . Trust me it was extreme fun , a combination of giggles , colors, Air, greens , water ! 

Yesterday we started sowing seeds again , Brinjal , Tomatoes , bitter gourds , tomatoes, ladies finger , carrots , cosmos ! Hoping to see them soon !
