No food tonight, just greens :-)

Semenjak dua menjak tiga menjak ni, our garden has been abandoned and neglected by us.

A lot of plants are showing the effects of weeks and months of neglect, sadly….

I only rely on the occasional rain to water the plants and The Other Half just fertilised the plants last week after weeks of ‘starvation’, hehehe…

I guess other things have taken priority over spending time in the garden…

And then when it’s Winter, lagi lah malas nya rasa nak masuk jenguk2 garden tu.

Luckily, the winter veges have survived the neglect and are thriving.

But the rest is not looking so great.

Some of the plants will bounce back in Spring time like the pokok kunyit, pokok cili, pokok serai..

But I’m not sure if my pokok pandan will survive though…sangat lah sedih rupanya, heeee…

The plants I know are thriving at the moment are the weeds and the errant grass.

They are everywhere!

I told The Other Half that we definitely have to spend some time this weekend to pull out all the weeds.

The growing kale and perpetual spinach in between the weeds, hehehe.

As long as tak terpetik the weeds and masak the weeds tu dah kira bagus lah kan, kahkahkahkah…

The sugar snap pea plants.

They love cold weather so tu yang we can only plant them during Winter time. We love sugar snap peas most compared to other peas.

The beans. Dah lama betul I tak petik. I have no idea what’s underneath the leaves.

Entah2 penuh dengan snails and slugs, eeeeeuwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!

Our supposedly purple carrots but I can still see the orange colour!

I’ve harvested some of the carrots and all of the ginger in the garden.

In a few weeks time, we need to start planting the seeds for Summer pulak.

Kata orang berkebun ni pun ada musim mood juga. Kalu rajin tu, sampai senja pun dok korek cangkul bajak lagi. Kalu malas tu, nak tengok cangkul pun takda mood, kan?

Sian pokok. Sian sayur.
