Growth Spurts

A week is just made of seven days and yet so much can happen in within this short period of time.

To our amazement the okra plants are getting fuller and sturdier and so are the roselle ones. Our citronella plants are muliplying as are our sweet potato leaves. However, the most apparent change goes to the baby banana shoot. It's amazing how it has grown and we have the photos to prove it.

Besides crickets, we have grasshoppers as well. Managed to kill one and there were teenier ones about, just about 6-8mm in length and extremely difficult to catch. We need to eradicate them!

We are also testing out a Smart Water product. It's some clear beads which will expand and hold water in the soil. Hopefully this will give enough moisture to our pandan plants.

Thanks, Joel for taking the pictures!
