Hello Hive,
This is a rainy day in my city, both the sky and the weather appears very cloudy since last night, it has guaranteed a freezing day. I'm creating this content about all the seeds i have been able to plant since March 20th, 2025, and other days.
Coco yam growing very healthy in my farm.
This year, i have intentionally set my planting of seeds earlier and on time so i can be among those people harvesting early and before others. I planted in two different plots of land..
As i said before now that i have sown so many seedings like these ones differently, on different days and times, good to see that all the plants are doing very well, growing up in different spheres, and
at the right time too.
I have just also applied some liquid mixtures of insecticide to kill all the worms and different types of insects trying to eat up my beautifully growing legumenius plants. No... Insects are not allowed.
Noooo, noooo, these insects are never needed at all. If allowed, they'll eat up the entire crops in the farm. Then i went to one of the local crops/seedling shop in my area, they recommended this very insecticide for me, as i applied it as directed, it worked. The crops have escaped this massacre by the insects....
This corn was eaten up by insects and worms, see the difference from the healthy corns.
I was applying the insecticide mixture to the corn
All hands need to be on deck this side of the world because our economy has really gone sour. We heard over the telecast the other day, that the president has band completely the importation of so many helpful items from coming into the country.
This news has triggered so much fear in the hearts of so many people because there has been a terrible hunger and hardships already ravaging the country and then again this ugly policy suddenly comes up.
Meaning, there could be an unbelievable, unbearable and an unexpected situation of hunger in this country by next year. Plan B in action...!
This is very much a good season for people to resonate with going back to Agriculture and seed planting that leads to harvesting your own crops soonest. It's mostly for our personal assistant because having some vegetables, okra, corn and all these first hand kitchen edibles to harvest by yourself is a beautiful defense and help for anyone at anytime. We can really help ourselves to sort out certain difficulties. It's a kind of creating a multiple defensive mechanisms against lack and want making us to be quite balanced in life, 😄, so amazing,!
Ok...these were the seeds i planted as follows:

They have all sprouted and are doing very very well by now, it makes the heart very glad to see that one didn't labour in vain. I have really combined my gardening activities, farm work activities together with my blogging work. All i need do is having a planned schedule and a greater resilient approach to handling them all.
You know a lot of people had been advocating and advising the general public to have multiple streams of income so as to balance the family needs. we know that those needs occur every single day and their investments even creating a financial savings.
For me, this is another stream of income because when you harvest whatever kind of crops you had planted either from your garden or your farm, the tendency to save some certain amounts of money is there without doubts. Thereby creating multiple streams of savings or income as the case maybe.
I think, all we are seeking for, is just a means of escape from hardship, failures, poverty and emptiness. Farming or gardening can be a serious escape root for anyone who chooses to add it to whatever they are doing intentionally, we you can.
Thank you everyone for coming around, let's keep interacting. Thank you again and again.
