Hello and a happy Friday to all homesteaders. Today, I will be sharing with you the experience I gathered visiting my sister’s in-law vegetable garden. But before I proceed with the experience and some suggestions I made for my sister’s in-law on how to go about his vegetable garden. I will like to inform you that the vegetable leaf known as Ugu in the Igbo language is one of the best leaves ever that helps to build the body system.
My mother used to feed me with enough vegetable leave when I was still a kid and I have also tried feeding on it to date. My mother made me understand that vegetable leave known as Ugu in the Igbo language is very reach in blood generation and immune boosting and as such consuming it on daily bases is very helpful to health.
Experience gathered from my sister’s in-law vegetable leave garden:
Today, I decided to visit my sister because it has been a long we both meet and discussed as a family ever since she got married. When I visited her and greeting. After a while of discussion with her, I asked her about my in-law who’s her husband. My sister told me that the husband went to the backyard to check on his vegetable garden.
After my sister told me that the husband who happens to be my in-law went to check his vegetable leaf garden, I told my sister to direct me on how to meet with the husband’s vegetable garden. My sister directed me. I later visited the vegetable garden. When I visited the vegetable leaf garden, I noticed that the vegetable leaf was actually doing well. This is because the leaves of the vegetable were all green in color and In agriculture green means life.
After I noticed how green my sister’s in-law vegetable garden was. I asked my sister’s in-law the secret to why the garden is looking so fresh. He told me that he used to water the vegetable garden twice a day (morning and evening). He also told me that he does his possible best to make sure that domestic animals like goats, fowl, and others don’t have access to the garden which is the main reason the vegetable has not been affected by the animals.
Personal Observation and suggestions for the vegetable garden:
One of the challenges I observed about the vegetable leaf garden despite the freshness of the farm was that the garden lacks proper care in terms of weeding the grasses. Most vegetable leaf gardeners are not aware that weeds affect the growth of vegetable leaves and can make them not grow the way it’s supposed compared to when the garden was weeded. Please if you are into vegetable gardening, learn how to make the garden look neat by weeding the unwanted plants.
After observing how the vegetable leaf garden my sister’s in-law was not weeded, I told my sister’s in-law to try and weed the garden to see how neater and good the garden will look. From the image of the vegetable garden, you will notice where the garden was weeded and when it was not weeded. You will have to agree with me that after some of the gardens were weeded that the vegetable garden now looks awesome.
