I don't know what I'm going to do with the kai choy veggies. There are only about half a dozen left. It is too bitter to be eaten, I guess that I have to take a drive to the Bukit Jalil pond and feed to the hundreds of tortoises there! I wonder whether the tortoises will eat this bitter stuff! If they are hungry enough, I think they probably would.
I will need the containers for my other veggies soon, I hope they won't turn out bitter since I'll be using the same soil. Maybe I should mix with some fresh soil. Someone told me that if you use the same soil that was used to grow bitter gourd, then most likely your veggies will have a slight bitter taste. Is it true? Any explanation on this? The kai choy was grown totally on new soil, so no relation there!

My beautiful corn, photo taken in July
A close-up shot of the beautiful corn, after all, one photo is not enough!
Once upon a time, long, long, ago, there was a beautiful corn...... who doesn't like the month of August!
What happened ????****????, Beats me.....!!!
What might have been.... Sigh.....
My sister planted two of this beauties, and they turned out exactly like mine! Any of you familiar with growing corns? Any pointers?

This is my pathetic chili plant no. 1
The two last chilies from this plant. This plant was pruned and being sent to the corner for misbehaving badly! He! He! I can see new leaves are growing! Keeping my fingers crossed!
This is another pathetic chili plant no. 2
There are no. 3 and 4, need I say more? Figure it out yourself. I have come to the conclusion that I am a jinx with chili plants. Never succeeded in growing a healthy plant full of chilies before. The chilies are usually just a handful and after that, that's it! It will wilt and die..... sigh again..... But I'm not giving up, I will just keep on trying. (JC, if you are reading this, you have a partner!)
THIS IS STILL THE BEST !!!!
Happy Gardening !
