Little Farmers

Few months back, hubby said want to let Wien try on farming (plant vegetable). So I get MIL to get me one polystyrene from wet market. Few weeks ago, in one of the weekend, we started the farming. Wien very excited with it, so does Lyon. Every morning, before I left to work, I'll remind Wien to shower the plant, else they will die of thirsty.

btw, we plant spinach! I think have to wait few more weeks only we can eat the vege!

I wonder if they will continue watering the spinach if they know they have to eat the vege later... LOL!

Wow,good idea. Badly here don't have place to plant..

When i was young, my mum taught me to place (can't say plant) the mung bean on the cotton, i still can recall myself how's happy was i when seeing the sprouting.

Wien must be very excited - watching the crop grow where she planted and watered.

How I wish I have such a space. I love to plant veggie too but in my place, where to plant, no drying area and not even a balcony - under my bed maybe (heehee).

Wow, what an experience for the kidos.

Do you put any fertilizer?
