My First Plant - Bitter Gourd (Ampalaya)

Good evening everyone! So I just got home. I want to share to you the first ever seed that I planted. I'm so happy when the seed actually grows. I know how to grow some seed but it's been a long time since I planted a seed. I remember when I'm still a high school student, we usually make a garden for our school and of course ourself. But now everything is new too me so I keep on researching on how to plant a seed. I join some groups in facebook too.

This is Ampalaya or Bitter Gourd. This has many names.

I never expected this to grow but here it is. This is the very first one sprouts in my garden. I brought the seed online and it's very cheap. Great deal for someone like me.

First flower:

First Vegetable Fruit

I'm just sad about the fruit because it's stop growing and wehn I look at it, it become rotten. I'm still trying to find the reason why. Now we transfer it to soil, we don't put it in container. I hope now it grows and have many fruit!
