Onions are doing well..

Had a very good garlic yield. A friend of mine who is a farmer thought it was a good veriety and took the seed.

Cauliflower is doing well too.

Min and coriander is permenant feature of our kitchen garden.

Cherry tomatoes are also going great. There is a daily yield from these beauties.

Tomatoes, plants are healthy.

Heartening to see some fruits & veggies; all in good healthy state. Masha Allah,You have a lot of area to pursue your hobby in all its dimentions without constraints. Hope you tried Broccoli & various varities of Salad?
You have both the varieties of Mulberry; how much do they differ in taste & yield ?
Your garlic is local variety ,therefore thin plants.Have you tried Chinese variety, which has greater yield, though some people prefer the taste of local variety ? Overall a great sight. Regards

Munir bhai
Both mulberries are great. The white one is very sweet and red one is a little sour but very good. Both have very good yield and I can't tell the difference. I have two trees and the yield is good enough to treat the whole neighbourhood as well as anyone visiting my house.
As for the garlic, I like the taste of local one. I do lot of hunting and fishing and garlic is a very important ingredient in preparation / cooking of game meat. In fact, it is the most important ingrediant. Our local garlic has a strong taste & smell. Chinese one is sort of tasteless in my view.

I have one Mulberry tree;it put on a lot of raw fruit last year which was totally blown off by strong wind, thus I could not know which colour it was.I pray it is white,as the coloured one beside being a little sour also leaves stains.
It is news to me that local garlic is the main ingredient of game bait.I will learn more about it later, as my son is crazy about both,hunting & fishing.I think I will also catch this infection.So, "khoob guzray gi, jo ....."

Asim sb, Thanks. We had a good yield of carrots, reddish, potatoes and oranges this year and really enjoyed home grown vegs for quite sometime. No chemical fertilizers were used.

Your pomegranates (or anarkalis) are very beautiful. Is it a decorative tree or bears edible fruits?
I had one, it bore similar flowers but the fruit was deadly sour.

@ KBW, very good plants. Do you use manure? As you said no chemical fertilizers are used.
