Yeah I guessed that,
for some kind you eat you would feel like there is something very dry in your mouth and you need to drink water. You have to chose the right kind to grow.
Alhumdulilah my father is a fan of palm growing, so he is in charge of gardening ^_^
 
^Thats EXACTLY what Happened With Me loool
Thanks For The Info :D
 
lol....for those that you eat, they are either raw and not mature or they are some bad kinds not very tasty
 
The growing season is slowly coming to an end.
Today was a day for making more jam, this time blackberry:

Our growing season is pretty much finished now, and it's been fun sharing it with you ...



... perhaps I can hand over to people from the Southern Hemisphere to share their growing gardens with us over the next 6 months? :)

How beautiful glo! this is exactly what I had in mind when I purchased my blackberry and blueberry seeds from eBay a few weeks back. I dream of making jam like this! I was even tempted to buy strawberry seeds to experiment with growing them in the fridge:-[ My father vehemently opposed to that...naturally:exhausted

I wonder if they will grow in Malaysia though? If I am not mistaken it's Zone 3 over here.....will they grow glo? It's so ridiculously expensive in the stores! And then they taste just like straw or something.

Oh, and a few weeks back I grew some roselle seeds, a lovely lady whom I do not even know sent them to me after I commented on a blogpost of hers masha'allah. I planted 5 seeds, and 2 came up, but one wilted and died and the other one seems to be growing happily alhamdulillah! I speak to it everyday so it knows how much I place my hope on it....they do say that loving speech to a plant helps it grow...:statisfie

SAYA, whilst living in Egypt my father would by fresh dates often! we would wash off the skin and have it with fresh milk which the milkman would bring by in the mornings........ I love it!!

In Yemen though the village girls used to sell some sort of date, it was dried and very very hard. I dont know whether they baked it or dried it?:? but it was very hard and chewy...and so sweet!! I used to love it as a snack and so did my family. Do you know what I am talking about sis?
 
^ Date jam? I make date chutney ... that sounds more edible lol...Date jam! would probably rot the teeth....
 
lol actually I got the recipe for the chutney off an indian recipe website. Malaysians don't really go for chutneys...They are more into achars and pickles and stuff.I put some tamarind,palm sugar,cumin (whole) fresh hot chillies and other good stuff.

elo ello glo sister

do you sell the jam?? erm erm any freebies like try before you buy with the berries :embarrass
 
Blackberries



Did you know blackberries have useful healing properties? Of course they’re loaded in antioxidants and vitamins, but the leaves and roots have value, too. Native Americans have long used the stems and leaves for healing, while enjoying the young shoots peeled as a vegetable of sorts and the berries, either raw or in jams. The leaves and root can be used as an effective treatment against dysentery and diarrhea as well as serving usefulness as an anti-inflammatory and astringent. Ideal for treating cuts and inflammation in the mouth.

I do believe our garden season is over. We got back home to Minnesota yesterday. This is what it looks like outside at this moment. Needless to say I am not going out to look for the garden:

The snow just started. Although the temperature has not dropped much the wind is fierce. Current constant wind is 42 miles per hour with gusts over 60.
 
^ :eek: nd i thought WE had alot of snow!!

poor gardens. the baeutiful "roses" (dandelions:p ) have all died imsad
 
The new growing season is about to start.

Sadly Mustafa (one of our keenest vegetable growers here in LI) doesn't post here anymore.
Is anybody else interested in resurrecting our garden thread?

Peace
 
Assalamu Alaikum

I would like to continue sharing photos of our garden with everyone here. Over the course of the last few days we have got our garden planted for the most part, with the exception of the butternut winter squash, carrots and lettuce. :statisfie
