They are all still growing!!!

Dear readers, 

Since I had decided to let all my garden back to nature, back in the fair competition with other plants and the life full of unpredictability; the plants have been still growing beautifully!!!

Nature have been good to all the gardens with so much rain last few days. The rain waters also encouraged the grow of the weeds and the competition for water and nutrient had began between the gardens and the weeds. This is nature. We human had chosen few kind of edible plants and call them vegetables and in the mean time trying to eliminate what we think as inedible weeds. But the truth is that so many of the weeds around us is edible. The fact that they are seen as the untouchable is only due to humans' labeling. So why would I intervene the competition between my garden and the weeds while both are edible. It is just the way nature are made, balanced through competition. Here is some picture of the gardens:



The garden by St. Mary Free Bed Hospital.


The Pumpkins are growing.

The garden by the road side:
All six potato plants there is destroyed. It seem as a weed trimmer came along and cut them all off. 
That is the competition between nature and man, competing space to grow and function.

Nothing really had change in the gardens except the potato plants that got destroyed. 
All is still good. Thanks for the rain. 
I will continue to keep you update on the gardens!!! 


Thanks for reading.
