Pooch Green Saturday: Bamboo Shooting.

It’s only been a year but the bamboos in the yard have been growing from only three to at least ten (or twelve?) TWENTY of them. We found this little one pushing himself up two days ago.

Pooch Green Steps: Day 5 and 6.

OK. Boo me. I missed the green step yesterday and blah! I was just having a don’t-feel-like-posting mood. Maybe I shouldn’t have made it a daily task. *roll eyes*

Anyway. I soaked some organic wheat berries this afternoon, preparing them to be planted tomorrow. If you didn’t know, wheat berries will grow into wheat grass… for the dogs. Yes, both the dogs LOVE wheat grass. Xiao Bi will practically have it like a treat. I haven’t been growing them for some time so today is just the right time. :)

Wheat Berries.

The one on the right is mine, and the tiny one on the left belongs to little niece a.k.a Chao Chao. We’ll be planting them tomorrow so stay tuned! ;)

Pooch Green Steps: Day 2.

Part of my brother’s business involves receiving goods in these foam boxes. As we all know, these boxes aren’t recyclable. But with a little hole-poking at the bottom of these boxes, they turn into handy pots for some, if not most of the plants.
Used foam box for the Italian Parsley.
We’ve been having our Italian Parsley in the foam box for months. It was about to die when it was planted in an old regular plastic pot, until I moved it into this foam box one day and it started growing like nobody’s business. I think it loves the green move too! ;)

The First Harvest.

Yesterday we harvested my first batch of vege from the garden. One Pak Choy and one Choy Sum. Were they tasty? Not being a very vege-people myself, I’d say YES THEY WERE TASTY – of course, they are from my garden. LOL!


The Pak Choy.


Choy Sum. It looks like a huge bunch from this photo but neh, it’s just the angle. :P

The okras are starting to grow and the pumpkin plant is about to bloom. I bought another 8 packets of seeds last week (consist of cherry tomatoes, broccoli, parsley, peppermint, and capsicums) and have started sowing a few. Hopefully can success this time too. :)

Another Round of Hope.

My ‘Pak Choy‘. It’s growing so far so good. I’m giving it 10-15 minutes sun bathe every morning. Two other cabbages and another ‘Pak Choy‘ also came out this afternoon. The lettuce still refuses to germinate though.

I hope they grow well this round. :)
