Hi Asha, I love ur garden and esp curry leaf plant. Very bushy.

My rigde gourd plant just started blooming in september, after waiting all these months. I thought it doesnt bloom at all, but it did finally. I have to wait and see how it grows!

Thanks Swapna! :)

Anon, Ridge gourd plants do love heat, so no problem there but sometimes when you grow them for the first time, they might not fruit at first. I find that they start blooming in August mostly and once they start, it's very hard to stop them. You get Ridge gourds in huge amounts. Have patience and don't give up! :))

Hi Asha,
Rushed here after I saw your comments in my website. Wow! cool vegetable garden. Though I have taken photographs of most of the vegetables growing, I have grown very few.
Gardening is a great hobby and also therapeutic.
Keep posting and all the best,

2010-01-31T03:29:21.220-05:00

OMG!!!, I love that garden of yours, it is really so breath taking to see so many veggies you have grown, I can understand your kids feelings like that we have a double beans plant in India, and my dad so adamant that we had to use it every dish amma made until the plant ceased giving the beans!!, but it is a gardener's delight to see his garden grow and make dishes from them!!, I envy you,

Hi Nehal, my veggie patch is about 8' by 4', not very big and about 2' high with a mix of sandy soil, miracle grow and regular soil you get in Lowe's. I would love to see your garden grow. I know weather is lot here in the South. You do get about 3 mnts of sunny days there I am guessing. Good luck.

Wow Asha!! your garden looks awesome. How big is your veggie patch? Just by looking at the amount of veggies growing in ur garden, I feal a little jealous:) :( We don't get very long summers here in Seattle, so I don't get as much harvest here. This year I am being a little optimistic though, and also starting my plants indoors to get them planted out as soon as the weather warms up. Lets
