My Gardening Blog

I will soon have a new blog on gardening. The blog may be new but I'm not as a gardener. I've tried gardening before, much to my dismay, I am not the one with green fingers. I have no success with my seed germinations.Of course I blamed the seed being an old stock. What else could be the reason when the soil mixture is okay, I keep the soil moist and look at the germinating pots almost everyday with hope.

So, next week, with the help of my good friend, Saaidah, I hope to bring back some life into my tiny front yard. And I hope to write in my blog my adventure as a born again gardener. I really have high hopes this time around.Wish me a lot of luck.

FIG SEEDS VS FIG PLANTS

I am trying to grow figs from seeds...it has been almost 3 weeks since i plant the seeds in a pot of soil mixture...nothing comes out of it. According to the instruction, it might take 15 to 90 days before the seed could germinate...90 days is such a long time and my husband and children are already making fun of me.

I love figs ...I've only eaten the dried ones. I've never eaten the fresh ones. So it is my hope that my fig seeds will germinate so I can feast on fresh figs.

Where in Kuala Lumpur can I buy a fig plant? So I do not stress out not seeing my seeds germinate. In the meantime, my cucumber seeds are already germinating and need to be transplanted in a bigger pot. It will take 3 months before I can harvest my first cucumber. At least I can focus on my cucumber plants instead of worrying about fig seeds...well at least for the next 90 days...
