Check here for my posts on Composting
The composting is going fine and I have been very excited about starting up an organic vegetable garden in my balcony! Very ambitious, what?! Well, no harm in trying and there are so many folks who are growing veggies on their terraces. Don't know how well they will grow, but am determined to try.
Here are some of the seeds which have sprouted. Many have been savaged by squirrels and birds. So trying out some stuff to keep them at bay as well.

These bunchbeans were damaged due to severe rains and hailstones. Attached scotchtape to them and decided to wait and watch. They healed.
Here are buds appearing
Brinjal seeds sprouted into saplings
Saplings transplanted
Bhindi sprouted in rind of sweet lime and planted rind et al
Bean plant savaged by squirrels
Saving the capsicum saplings from squirrels and birds
Desperate situations call for desperate measures - wooden barricade and chilli powder treatment
Chow chow
Roots of greens from a bought out bunch stuck into a pot growing
One more green grown the same way
Now keeping my fingers crossed and praying the plants grow well and that I get some good organic produce!
