How does your garden grow?

[Woodrow]

The Indian Berries Popcorn reminded me of the Glass Gem Popcorn I ordered this year. http://greenlifeinsocal.com/2012/06/16/glass-gem-corn/

The glass gems look prettier. The Indian berries look more like the decorative Indian corn

Looking at the second picture makes me think you forgot to pick your egg plant and it hatched.

There is a green material wrapped around the chicken's leg. Did you do that?

Chickens comes from eggs... but then cock is needed too.

Gardening takes too much work. I don't have the patience for it.

Gardeners are also health people because they work a lot outside and eat fresh vegetables and herbs.

May I ask if you know the background of the chicken? Like what family they belong to?

I know what breed they are, if that what you mean. They are Ranger chickens, a cross between a Rhode Island Red and White Hybrid Chicken.

I know where we bought them from, but no, I don't know who bred and grew these particular chickens.

Yes, without cocks we get eggs but no chickens.

I wonder if I can grow any plants in this apartment's balcony?

 

[glo]

Sure, you can try growing tomatoes and lettuce in grow bags, also beans or courgettes/zucchini. Strawberries and tumbling tomatoes grow very well in hanging baskets too.

You can still buy established plants now, but it would probably be too late (depending on where you live) to grow from seeds now.

 

[sister herb]

Most of herbs you can grow in pots like basil, thyme, coriander, sage, parsley, dill... and others like tomatoes (like Glo wrote), cucumber, lettuce. Ampel strawberry is one berry what is normal in here in balcony.

Ooops I forgot from my herb list cinnamon basil. Seems that one my sage will starts to flower. :statisfie

I planted green chili seeds in my balcony sometime in May, and they still haven't grown, Whyyyy!?!?

 

[sister herb]

What kind of place your balcony is? "The seed needs at least 20°C to germinate." More: http://www.tropicalpermaculture.com/growing-chillies.html
