Greetings fellow Hivers! Well its that time of year when the rain starts to fall from the sky pretty consistently. They call it the rainy season and fair enough it does rain but not all the time. Nothing like that monsoon in India. Now that's rain on a whole other level. Here the worst it gets is two weeks of heavy constant rain.
Papayas love the rainy season
Papayas are a finicky plant. They seem to grow almost anywhere in a moist warm climate but they need easily draining soil. Even with the proper conditions sometimes they just up and die for no good reason. That's why I always have lots of growing in different stages. Because the sun is a bit hidden at times where I live the 1 year trees are quite tall from growing to the sun. So let's have a look at the new growth and lovely fruit even though the sun is out for the moment!
Nothing beats homegrown organic
I was never a big fan of Thai papayas before growing my own. The ones I had before never had much taste. I don't know why but the papayas from my garden are so tasty! Maybe its all the love thrown in there. This is my first garden and nothing beats the feeling of gardening and then eating the fruits of your labor. Hope you enjoyed this update and get a garden of your own going. I never did before because I kept moving but I reckon even if I move someone will get to eat from the garden anyway!
