Part of my wife's uncle's garden with plants that were cut down (eggplants) and other newly planted sweet peppers

We continue fighting to find more survivors in the states most affected by the earthquakes that shook our country last Wednesday. Hopefully, now that international aid has arrived, we can rescue more people alive, which is the most important thing right now, since material things can be obtained later. This afternoon, my wife and I went to visit her uncle. He called to tell me that among so many things that had happened, he forgot to mention that some time ago he had cut down two eggplant plants and planted several sweet peppers. He invited us over to take pictures, and of course, we all chatted together while enjoying a good cup of coffee.

He told me he couldn't come with me, but he showed me where the plants were. He also mentioned that he had cut back the eggplants some time ago so they would regrow (that's an amazing quality of these plants). He did just that, and you can already clearly see how the plants are growing again, although some are growing faster than others. You can even see the flowers starting to appear, which tells us that a new harvest is coming soon.

The sweet peppers were planted the same day, almost two weeks ago, since it was the last waning moon (ideal for planting). Unfortunately, they haven't grown as fast as he expected, but it's probably too early to say for sure. Perhaps they'll have that final growth spurt in the next few days that will allow them to harvest very soon, since the soil is fertile on its own, but they might need some fertilizer. There weren't many plants, I think about 10, though I didn't count them. But the important thing is to know that there are still people who believe in agriculture, since there's no better way to get food than growing it ourselves at home.

I'll say goodbye now, but not before thanking you for the support of my recent posts here in the #hivegarden community. It allows us to share great photos of some of our plantings, however small they may be. Whenever there's an opportunity to plant, we'll be there, taking advantage of what nature offers us every day.
