Hello Hive
Happy new week to us all I hope that we are all enjoying and having a good time, it's the start of a new week and I hope that the week will go easy on us and that we will enjoy some peaceful moment and time at work.
I can beg that you all haven't seen this much quantity of jute mallow all planted together. It seems like of all the crops we have planted during this season, this fluted pumpkins and the spinaches will be the ones to have given us much harvest so far.
Our peppers have all witnessed delayed growth, productivity, maturity and now even ripening. While we were at the farm over the weekend, there is not much to harvest from the pepper yet 🌶️.
Just a few have ripened. But in order to be able to sell at the market, a good number of the pepper must get ripped at once so that they can be measured in baskets to be sold, only a handful are getting ripped per time.
In order to maximize the land space and capital for cultivating the land we often plant varieties of crops. At first we have planted corn in between these peppers but soon as the corns were harvested and taking out
These jute mallows were spread across the farm and in just 3weeks we have them grow to this length.
It takes about 6weeks max to grow jute mallow one of their favorites soup in the land. I have tried all I can to learn how to eat the soup made from this particular vegetables but I have not been able to although I try to take a spoonful of it once in a while as it is very much beneficial to our health.
Most expectant mothers in the land understand the benefit of this for easy labour and child delivery and hence expectant mothers take a lot of this as advice by our midvives who believed in it potency for such.
We would be preparing for some early harvests in a week or two and our community will have some fresh veggies to purchase from the market. This were grown purely without fertilizers as the land is much fertile and there was no need for that.
