My Messy Garden 2

It is time to update how is my very first vegetable garden going on. Bad news and good news. The bad one is about 20 of my pumpkin were killed by a pile of bugs, we didn't know what kind of bug was that, but, there were too much of them just covered up the whole patch of pumpkin and killed it.

The good news is we have about 7~9 water melon growing now!!! And more winter melon too. Yay!!!! Tomatoes are growing out there, that was accidentally planted from the seeds in the compost made from vegetable scraps and egg shells.

More pictures here!!

  1. Wow, the melons are huge & healthy! It's always so fun to plant your own fruits & veggies. Thanks for sharing photos from your garden as I am always very 'kaypoh' wanting to see what bloggers plant since i don't have a garden (yet!).

  2. Nyonya, this is my first veggies and fruits garden, Arizona is a desert, we are being very careful to make sure the plants are not dehydrating and bug free. So far, I feel happy and satisfied! ( don't mention about my pumpkin though) lol.
    You may try to plant some vegies and herbs. I haven't got to buy any seeds so far, just planted them with the seeds that leftover from my veggie scrap. :-)
