Mala...Bangchik,<br />Yes the loofah love this weather...<br />Malay Kadazan girl,<br />thank you so much, I look forward to the seeds. Send me your address so that I can send you yours! thanks for the advice on the ginger - I thought I would be able to do that. <br />Rina,<br />I didnt have success with chinese brocoli last year - thought maybe I would wait with those seeds. I just have the regular orange sweet potatoes. Looking forward to that chutney - yum.<br />One,<br />My passionfruit vine started fruiting within a year but then here they get a virus so I planted another vine which has taken over. <br />Desiree,<br />lets hope so, there is a cylcone heading towards us right now...<br />Sanddune,<br />It is amazing how good produce tastes straight out of the garden. I agree that mass produced produce has less and less flavour. <br />Missy,<br />I am researching recipes to adapt to what grows locally. It is a pity that it take something that that to spur us on. <br />Ami,<br />I do like the angled loofah when small but this one is not so nice. I am also growing those long green beans, they are very prolific. .africanaussiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660727599623626163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-77094262646763374372011-02-01T10:43:21.465+10:002011-02-01T10:43:21.465+10:00Wow, I also wish your veggie garden can take off s...Wow, I also wish your veggie garden can take off so that you can have organic vegie and save some money for your other gardening spending :) Do you also use loofah for food? I love it when it is still tender. I love the long Chinese snake bean as well. My garden does not have a good spot for veggie. I grew beans and tomatos in the container. It is fun! Good luck again!Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07744078497819915126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-12925329651820994822011-02-01T05:50:28.627+10:002011-02-01T05:50:28.627+10:00You are so right Africanaussie and very smart to b...You are so right Africanaussie and very smart to be planting. The Lockyer Valley, near here, grew a big percentage of our fresh produce. It was called Queensland's Salad Bowl and was wiped out by the floods. They will take quite some time to recover. Most fruit and veges in the shops will be expensive and/or imported for the next few months.Roslynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04940119240313980400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-31428813752910903912011-02-01T04:16:59.085+10:002011-02-01T04:16:59.085+10:00Hope your veg garden produces well for you. It is ...Hope your veg garden produces well for you. It is a smart idea to grow your own. In the big stores here a lot of the produce is shipped from other countrys. I noticed avacados from Chile and tomatos and cucumbers from Mexico. They grow varietys for long storage life not taste and only God knows what chemicals have been put on them. I think you are definitely on the right path.sanddunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10091633099445758748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-44647328141433332332011-01-31T21:37:11.905+10:002011-01-31T21:37:11.905+10:00Sounds like you'll be chomping away like regul...Sounds like you'll be chomping away like regular little bunnies once all those seeds have taken :)Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-27373635018352204952011-01-31T21:20:14.436+10:002011-01-31T21:20:14.436+10:00Nice to see you have that many variety of edible p...Nice to see you have that many variety of edible plants.

I make sure I post the seeds to you as soon as possible so you can sow it together. My mother harvest her ginger only the portion she need and leave the plant alone.You have so many vegetable variety growing in your garden. Congratulation, you are one of the "Seed Week" Home-saved seeds give-away winner. I will try to send more seeds to you then.Malay-Kadazan girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09692400837667241873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-83086059938592349412011-01-31T16:23:00.433+10:002011-01-31T16:23:00.433+10:00your loofah doing so well.
