Planted Bottle guard, Tomatoes, Cucumber, Okra, Beans, and Gongura, Amaranthes ( INDIAN and AMERICAN varities)All the plants have germinated well and they are to a moderate size now.

I would have lost some Bottle guards if I have not gone thru this information from Miz.POONAM.I will try this with my Bottle guard plants.Thank you very much for the same. Now can you or any one tell me about Tomatoes and how to get good number and sized tomatoes.. as I got a very low no.and sized ones in the last season.<br />With advance thanks to the advisor,<br />SURYAAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14911139650348911306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2710066157031559988.post-86464138598515525552013-06-07T21:01:00.085-04:002013-06-07T21:01:00.085-04:00Thanks Ms Poonam.

As also my Fig tree....The first year when I bought them...they fruit had set and I managed to get one fruit from each...Thereafter...there has been nothing...absolutely nothing. My plants are in drum containers. Even planting them in amrit mitti and adding kitchen waste, mulching has not helped. However, I am keeping positive...in the hope that some miracle will happen. I have a lot of bees/big black bumble bees visiting my garden as also the other tiny ones..like wasps which pollinate my lemon and drumstick and I have received a bumper harvest of drumsticks...and it looks like it will be the same for lemon too!...even the smallest branch has flowers and the tiny lemons are peeping after the flowers have fallen...lets wait and watch...how many I'll get!<br />MAVISMAVIS DSOUZAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16290202969854541054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2710066157031559988.post-62019042485980199622013-03-02T05:58:02.223-05:002013-03-02T05:58:02.223-05:00Thanks for helpful information.
