Growing coloured greens
It has been a while since I posted but in case you’re wondering, I’m still growing vegetables at home! In fact, I am growing really nice coloured ‘red’ greens (what an oxymoron) like red mustard and lettuce in my own garden!
This company in Singapore (www.pocketgreens.com.sg) has an interesting range of seeds that germinates easily and grow well in our climate. As you know, freshness of seeds is important as it translates to high germination rate.
Take a look at some of the plants growing in my balcony right now. I harvest them when they are young for salad.
This is red bak choy. As you know, we’re always told to eat more coloured vegetables and fruits, so I’m so excited to be able to grow my own organic ones at home!
Despite our hot climate, their red romaine grows well too. They even survived the heavy downpours that we’ve been having lately.
The best looking ones are the red mustard. The leaves may look delicate but they’re really resilient. One day, I was dismayed to see them flattened by rain but to my surprise, the leaves sprung up shortly after and looked even more fresh after the rain. I harvest the larger leaves for salad and let the plants continue to grow new leaves. They’re my current favourite – pretty and tasty.
I sowed some kai lan seeds too. At first they were growing slowly, but after I transfered them to a bigger pot, they began to flourish. I went away for 4 days and was surprised to see how much they have grown.
