Wheng,

Organic fertilizer is fertilizer that is not made commercially. most of it are manure and compost/rotted leaves/seaweeds that you can make yourself. seaweeds are one of the best but you need to wash the salt off first. yes, you can mix them with soil and let them sit for a while in a compost bin until the leaves rot. you can also put your kitchen waste devoid of meat or any cooked products to your compost bin. compost bin can be made out of hollow blocks to produce a square hollow structure. you don’t a mortar to bind them so it is easy to disassemble.

Wheng,

You can plan almost anything in the Philippines all year round because we don’t have freezing temperature in there. Pechay, long beans, eggplant, tomatoes, saluyot, okra…whatever seeds you can find. you can start your garden from seeds and put them in little pots, then spread them out later when they are ready for transplanting. of course, you will need good fertilizer in your soil. good soil and right amount of water are the key to good gardening. karabaw and chicken manure are excellent fertlizer or just plain compost out of leaves/rice stalks will do. hope this helps.

Pwede po malaman kung anong mainam na itanim, this month of February? Gusto ko pong magtanim ng gulay sa gilid ng bahay namin sa pangasinan. gusto ko po gulay na madaling lumaki at dumami, gaya ng patola, kamatis, kalamansi at luya. Papano po ang dapat na preparation para sa pagtatanim, ano po ang pwedeng start na pangtanim buto po ba? pwede po bang hinog na gulay tapos ang buto nito ang kukunin na itatanim? Papaano rin po ang organic fertilizer? yong mga tuyong dahon po ba ito na ano po ang halo?
Please advice.

Thank you.

Wheng

Mga tanom mo po ini dyan? Great!

Ung lirinas man. Saluyot is very nutritious veggie, pero underrated sato.

Tama ka Mam Belle. Kung mahigos lang, dai masakit.

Mahal talaga mga gulayon. Kaipuhan mag backyard gardening.

I think I have space too in my yard and now I have the time. The seeds are available many places. And the sun is always here. I simply have to know how to begin.

Your veggie garden makes me salivate.

tita beele,
Ang tataba naman ng mga gulay mo. Iyong patola paborito kong ilagay sa miswa. May miswa ba diyan sa states? Siguro tita belle, kaya matataba at malalaki ang tanim mo siguro malamig ang clima diyan. dito sa amin sa pilipinas, naku ang init init. mahilig din ako magtanim ng mga gulay kaya lang palaging kinakain ng langgam ang puno. Ano ba ang aking gagawin dito? bigyan mo naman ako ng kaunting kaalaman kung paano magtanim ng mga gulay tulad ng mga gulay mo. ang ganda ganda. wait ko ang sagot mo tita belle, aasahan ko iyan. Sigi tita belle. kumusta ko na lang ang mga mahal mo sa buhay. Sana palagi silang malusog. God Bless. Thank you

I love to have a vegetable garden in our backyard here in Pangasinan. But I have no idea on the preparation of the soil and bed. I hope you can post something on that in the future, Belle. Just a simple, easy-to-follow procedure . Thanks!
