My First Okra Harvest

My vegetable plants are growing bigger and bigger and I'm still amazed at how I am able to take care of them for almost four months now. I never had a green thumb before but now I believe that with enough patience, discipline and passion, anything is possible! 

I've already harvested from my Kangkong (and I keep doing so every week) and now my Okra! It's really true what vegetable farmers say... the fulfillment you get from eating food that you grow yourself is priceless and fulfilling. I should know... I just ate steamed okra for breakfast together with kangkong, carrots, eggs, fish, soya milk and brown rice. Yum!

I hope the photos below will inspire you to start planting too. Let's be self-sustainable! 

Tomato, Eggplant and Okra Seedlings 2nd Month Update

It's been two months since I ventured into making my own vegetable garden. I've only re-potted my tomato, eggplant and okra seeds once and I've been meaning to transplant them again to much bigger pots where they can permanently grow and bear vegetable fruits. Unfortunately, I can no longer eat tomatoes, eggplant and okra because of my GERD and acid reflux but maybe once I'm healed, I can slowly incorporate them in my diet again.

I'll really find time his weekend to re-pot my growing vegetable seedlings. Must jot this down on my short-term goals book. I need to include this little activity and use the power of goal setting.

Anyway, here are photos I took a few minutes ago to show you how big my okra, tomato and eggplants seedlings are now:
