Vertical Planting is the Word

#1: Planted with vegie seeds which I can't remember the name... ;-) Bought the seeds at Giant, Nilai. The troughs, at a hardware store (and I leave that to dear Paka) in Pajam. Green, leafy vegie...

# 2: Same seedlings. Pegaga leaves can also be seen here. Oh yes, I use the plastic spoon the scoop the soil etc. Yeap, another use of the spoon.

Another shot of the vegetable and the leaves looked good, without too many insects' holes!!

And here's our vertical planting box (courtesy of hubby). The cost? That you've to ask the other half.

First Pineapple...

This is our first pineapple (ananas comosus)!!! Excited is the word no doubt. Harvested when the fruit was still green, and was left to ripe for a week.

We ate it fresh, the taste was sweet and juicy. Bought the original pineapple from a stall along Pasir Mas - Rantau Panjang road. Mak planted the crown first and gave it to us after a few months. Alhamdulillah, it grew well.

The pineapple taking a peek about 5 months ago.

From another angle of an amateur's eye... the unripe ananas

Further away..

And the whole plant... Planted under the shade of a mango tree. Not too sure if it helped but the soil condition there is on the wet side. As far as I can remember, fertilizer was seldom used on this plant. Just leave it on its own to grow.
