I do the tilling of the soil in one sack at time - to show respect for my back😂. I honour this body my Creator gave me while I make it do what is needful.
So I'm able to till one or two soil sack in a week. After tilling each sack, I plant immediately.
Apart from transplanting of mango seedling and Aloe Vera each in a sack, I have so far planted ewedu, peppers, rounded tomatoes, okro in four sacks altogether - I intercropped them in each sack.
I don't know yet if the mango seedlings can grow to a fruit-bearing tree in the sack. Even if not, mango leaves are so very useful - it can be boiled as tea. I have also started using mango leaves in washing my hair.
I am researching on how to include it in one of my home-made cosmetics. I use the Aloe Vera in my bathing soap. It's also good for hair. Planting them is to be sure the plants I use are not grown with chemicals.
Garden fruits and vegs are the real deal - it's just the space constraint that's limiting but better grow something than nothing.
The garden tomato I included in the cocoyam porridge I cooked some days ago gave the meal an exotic taste! That is one of the ways to enrich simple meals - meals can become rich even if not costly if you know how to apply garden secret!
