DIY Plant Markers

Actually, I wanted to buy some pretty plant markers but too expensive (really?). Then I made these simple markers.

You can find some interesting DIY ideas about plant markers on the Internet especially those that are using recycle items. Mine is so simple. Just using old paper bag (waterproof one), bamboo skewers (for satay), scotch tape & scissor. Write the plant names with a permanent marker. Simple, right?

Repotting Tomatoes & Lettuces

PS: Berhubung ada space2 yang kelihatannya bisa dimanfaatkan, saya menebar bibit2: radish, marigold dan lettuce di planter box inih... Yang radish bukan ditebar sih. Bentuknya lembaran, alias sudah diatur dalam lembaran yg langsung bisa diletakkan di tanah (kemudian tentu harus ditutup lagi dgn selapis tanah - petunjuknya ada di kemasan).

Welcome, Tomatoes & Lettuces!

Just bought these baby plants two days ago. Since we didn't have much time to do repotting, so they're still inside the boxes from the store, Botanic.

The tomato plants were so droopy when we brought from the store. But after watering at home, they looked so fresh & happy :)

In this pic, the tomatoes & lettuces are below, in the left side. The rests are my last week baby herbs that were already growing a bit. Me, happy...

Btw, I made some experiments to grow some plants from scratch. I saw on the internet and I'm really interested. In the pic, you can see the roots coming out from a piece of sweet potato & a piece of ginger. Nice, right? I try to regrow the celery too (not captured in here).

Well done, me! *cheering myself*

Ok, back to the flea market (I'm in the middle of selling things, ahahay...)

Pots d'Elho

Pot yg satu ini sdh membuat saya teringat terus. Konsepnya cucok dg kebutuhan gardening di balkon. Kita bisa tumpuk ke atas. Bahannya plastik PP. Ringan.

Of course pot tradisional (tanah bakar?) lebih baik. Sayangnya berat *malas angkat2*
