My first gardening experience...

Wow, Congratulations friend. I envy you. I grew up also with a mom who loves gardening. She can grow different types of plants and vegetables. I love to do that too but unfortunately, I don't have a "green thumb". LOL. I can't even grow a cactus. LOL. But I am really trying to learn gardening. I love to do it. My motto "try and try until you succeed". hahaha. Happy postings! Take care! HUGZ!

checapricorn hi its just fabulous how you feel when you can harvest your own veggies and fruits. I was raised on 'a farm and my mom taught me all about growing veggies and fruit as we always had fresh produce to eat and to can forwinter. I miss those day and the fresh veggies there for the picking, always tasted so much better than the store bought stuff.

Congratulations! . I always like gardening and most of the time i grow tomato and potato in my backyard. It is real great feeling when you see your hardwork.

Congratulations tp you .In a matter of fact I like gardening really so much just as you mentioned..eating the vegetables from our own garden is really a satisfying thing.I like that feeling as well.Now here in my country the price of the goods is really high in these days ,so have a garden of our own is really a good way to save a lot of money..But it is a pity that we live in the apartment thus we aren't that lucky as you to have a garden to grow the food vegetables...

It is a wonderful feeling. It is fun to go out every day to see what has popped up, to see which plants are developing fruits and vegetables. It is also very cool to watch them grow from a tiny bud in to a full fledged vegetable. It is an amazing thing.

that's good to here you know not everybody is gifted to have "Green tumbs"... some people really wants to do gardening but without any luck whatever they plant even cactus they die. =) hope your garden will have more crops...=)

Good job! I didn't grow up with gardening, my Mom just had a few flowers here and there, but nothing special. She worked full time and with 5 of us kids, I guess there was never time for anything like that. I've only had a garden twice before and never did it on my own. This year I planted several things in containers and then put a few things alongside the house, but I don't have room for a 'real' garden in this small place I'm renting. I can't wait to buy my house and have a proper garden, hopefully next year. Right now I'm thinking of digging up the remains of my sugar snap peas and maybe put in some cooler weather vegetables, broccoli, maybe cauliflower.

Hi teh, Wow! The picture looks so great! Is that an okra? What a nice flower! My okra are about to have some soon. The peanuts is almost ready. Too bad, they're not that many, soon I will plant more so I might be able to send some for you. I tastes my peanust yesterday and it was great. I missed fresh peanuts coz that's one of my favorite back home. Anyways teh, I wanna find our where could I find the button to invite friends. Ms Gan would like to be invited. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

Congrats! I think it's one of most satisfying things to do. I started growing fruits and veggies because my guy hates storebought tomatoes, and things kind of snowballed. Now I'm a gardening fool! Not only do I grow my own veggies, but I collect seeds, save them, share them, and grow again next year. Veggies are so easy and they gave me the confidence to go forward with other plants. Enjoy your fresh fruits and veggies! We do a winter garden every year, so I get the satisfaction all year.

wow thats great. Enjoy the fruit of your labour. Gardening is always rewarding..

Congratulations to you! It is amazing how those seeds or scrawny plants you put in your garden grow to produce all these fruits and vegetables. I also have a garden and this year is looking like the best one yet. I'm just starting to pick my green beans and broccoli but I have cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, cantaloupe and honeydew on the way! Enjoy the "fruits" of your labor :)
