Agreed .. i will wait a few weeks in the hope we get some reliable rain before planting my veges .... maybe start some seedling ... i have seen alex's garden and it is amazing how much one can grow in a small space .. many benefits to ones home , happiness and health

 

many of my neighbors are presently planting commercial crops of camote (sweet potato) in dry soil and they don't water/irrigate!!!

in the past, we had to water EVERY day to grow greens but several months back we switched to watering every other day cuz we've been able increase the soils water retention properties with our worm compost. however, in the last few weeks we've been giving some of the moisture sensitive veggies (especially cukes) a little water on off days.

 

I will take two seeds, and you can spread your wealth around with others here. I think you frequent La Fiesta, or if there is some place else convenient for you maybe we can meet for a mini-Seed Exchange. Maybe others would join us. the larger scale seed exchange will meet before the May planting month.

Not boring at all...there seems to be quite a few of us that like to garden and every input is helpful as I am trying to figure out what works best in a tropical environment.
