Green beans

I realize I have been posting about fruits trees lately!

Today I'm off to vegetable patch. Not so many vegetables but the beans caught my eyes!

I planted four of them. All are at flowering stage.

Little green beans are dangling! I wish to have many of them soon!

The little purple flowers are so pretty!

The green beans are shaded by the mango tree. However it does not stop them from producing beans! 

 They grow slowly due to lack of sun.

The beans are shorter but juicy!

Fat and shot green beans from the garden! I have been wrong with beans. I thought they love to grow in little sun. But actually beans love the sun. Next time I will grow them right under the sun!

Green beans for year 2015

This year I have started my vegetable seed sowing early. I have make use of all the vegetable bed in order to get vegetable harvest in full swing. That's my plan.....hope it will materialize...... ;)

Beans are climbing at different bed. Previously this bed was occupied by indian vegetables.

 The plants have set some flowers and few beans. I need to do weeding.

 

How is your plan for this year planting season?

Green beans harvest

Harvest time is really something that I look forward in my garden. Most of time I lost the race to pest in my garden but sometimes I do get some rewards!

Green beans have been producing good harvest from my garden! It taste so sweet fresh from garden. To tell the truth I never taste this flavour in market bought ones!

Beans - the new batches

All my previous batches of beans was munch down by the snails.

Now since they are no where to be seen, I have sowed and transplant the new batches of beans seedling to the ground. Currently they are sharing the bed with the chillies.

The little green beans is learning to climb the trellis. They have very soft stem. Hope they give handful of harvest for my cooking!

I would like to wish HAPPY DEEPAVALI to all Hindu bloggers and Happy holidays to all others in Malaysia since it's Public Holiday on Wednesday. To the rest have fun. Hope all of us have very wonderful time with our loved ones!

planting green beans again

My garden was invaded by snails. They comes in variety. big, small and medium size. I can easily see ten of them at one place. All my vegetables was eaten and damaged by this pest!

All my seedling were gone in a night. I planted 15 green beans seedling but only left is 2 green beans climbing on the trellis.

After putting so much effort like salt, egg shell, etc....nothing work out. Finally with advice from nursery guy, I put snail poison. The next morning I found about 60++ of them death! I feel very guilty but I have no choice...... I think the soil I bought from the nursery might have contain a lot of snail eggs........ phew.....

Here is the 2 green beans....climbing safely at the moment.....

Green Beans and CNY wishes!

The sun is shining so bright and I can see that the weather is slowly changing! There is no summer here but it's getting warm over here! It's time for vegetable gardening! I have sowed and transplant some green beans. Hope they grow well and I can harvest enough beans for my family!

Gerbera flowering after 1/2 a year!

My neighbour use to tell that this is lucky plant and the plant growth reflect the Owners financial too! I'm no so sure if it's true but I love Adenium!

 

Harvest time for green beans!

 Harvest time is the most happiest moment for a gardener! All the effort put in garden rewarded with bagful of harvest. Fresh and pesticide free of food!

I have planted 5 beans plants with the aim of harvesting enough beans for cooking at least a meal! Sometimes it dies half way of pest attack. This time, pest ignore the plant for Hibiscus , curry leaves and spinach! So they forgot or may be never see the beans...At least not yet!

the beans!

The beans have been producing ample of pods now. I'm left with 3 plants now so there are not much harvest per day.However, I have collected for the whole week and it's enough for my weekend cooking!

This vegetable seems like very sensitive to hot weather. Very short lived plant too. May be it's not so suitable to be in this part of the world.

The beans

Green beans have produce few flowers and few beans too. Look at how cute the little beans are!

Green Beans

I always treat green bean with full care. Mainly because it's very sensitive plant for me. I use to sow many seeds with only few germinate. Some dies soon after I transplant to the vegetable bed. In the end I will have 2 -3 plants to produce me green beans.

It doesn't stop there, soon caterpillars will attack the plant from nowhere.....As a result I only plant them when I have time.

Currently I have 4 green beans climbing the trellis.

Poles for green beans

I have to admit that the green beans trellis are really awful. I was not expecting much from green beans at that time so I just poked 3 branches.

It's slanting down now. This weekend I have few works to be done. I will provide new poles for green beans to climb. 2 little baby green beans was just shifted to the ground. They need a good poles! Weeding is another activity to be done! Seems like the weekend will be a busy one in the garden!

Green beans

After so long, finally I manage to harvest few green beans! I should say I'm satisfied with few beans as before this for about 8 months I never really have luck with green beans!

There are many flowers and little beans dangling around. I hope I can harvest enough this time from 3 plants!
