Every day, I make it a point to visit my pumpkin plant and ensure that it is crawling properly before leaving the house and heading to the office.
The next step I plan to take is to enhance its support at a higher level because every day, the pumpkin continues to grow longer, and some branches are also growing rapidly.
I observe and sense that the height and size of the crawling pumpkin (trellis) are not sufficient, so I monitor it daily to guide its direction and ensure proper growth.
On the side of the pumpkin trellis, I will plant the chili, although initially, it was intended for basil. I can't be certain whether it's chili or tomato. Regardless, I'll see how it goes! ^_^
My vegetable garden is simple but requires constant maintenance to keep it clean. I still need a whole day to get everything in perfect order, as there are some unfinished tasks, such as the bitter gourd trellis that I haven't completed yet.
By the way, this is the Moringa trunk or branch that I cut to create a trellis for my pumpkin plant. I initially dried it for five days to strengthen it for use. I will position that dry branch on the upper part of the trellis, creating a roof-like structure for the pumpkin to crawl along.
As my vegetable garden continues to evolve, each day brings new surprises and challenges. From crafting makeshift trellises to nurturing the vibrant greenery, the journey is a testament to the joys of gardening. As I eagerly await the flourishing of my pumpkin and the mysteries of the chili-tomato plant, I'm reminded that in the world of gardening, every twist and turn is an opportunity for growth. Join me in this green adventure, where the simplest of plants weave tales of resilience and beauty. Until next time, happy gardening!
