Update on my little garden and give it a booster

Hi everyone, how have you been doing? It's been more than a month since I started to grow some bean and herbs in my garden. Some of them are growing quite well, some of them sadly was attacked by slugs. During the whole month I was so excited to see how my garden change day by day. Watering those plants and watching the tiniest change in every single plant have become my daily routine 😂. I talk with my friends about growing plant, asking them their gardening experience. I never knew that gardening will bring me this much fun.

The weather last month at my place was still a bit cold so my plants were growing quite slow. I took my friend's advice to fertilize the soil by using fruit peel and egg shell. I am not really sure it does help or not but I was quite happy that I can make use of some kitchen rubbish for a better purpose. As you can see in the photo below, all the bean plants are much bigger compare to the little sprout in my last post.

Sadly all my little herb plants were eaten by the sneaky slugs so I started to growing them again, but this time I do seeding in the pot to keep it away from all insects.

I also found some germinated garlic bulbs in my kitchen, then I decided to add garlic to my garden next to the spring onion.

However, I think it's time to add some more nutrients to the soil now as the plants will need more food to growing faster and I can't wait to the harvest day as well :). And my mission for today was adding the booster to the soil. I had bought a big bag of garden booster from local supermarket and now it's time to dig.

The job was done and dusted just about 30 minutes, it was faster than I thought. After that I gave some water to the plants. Hopefully these booster will work soon and I can see the result of it.

I have had a fun time in my garden today. Hope everyone does too. Thank you so much for reading my post!

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing the plants grow! I think you could look into making your own fertilisers - did you know you can make them out of weeds? Like a weed tea? Cheaper, too. Egg shells can be a great slug repellent but they also add calcium to the soil. Slugs seem to hate coffee grounds too - I wonder if you can get them from a local cafe? Used, of course!

Thank you @riverflows for your suggestions, I didn't know that weeds can be used to make fertilizer, I will check it out :). I work part-time at a local cafe so can easily get some ground coffee too. Great to know these useful information :). Thank you so much for sharing! Hope you have a nice weekend!
