This is the latest update on my garden. I’ve successfully transplanted the tomatoes and chilies, and two days after moving them to a larger space, everything seems to be going well. However, my biggest challenge now is dealing with the cats that keep digging into the soil to bury their waste. While this could be beneficial as a natural fertilizer, I’m worried it might harm my plants.
The tomatoes were successfully transplanted without any issues.🌱 My only concern now is the cats digging to bury their waste. One of my Cherry Tomato plants was slightly covered, and some of its leaves were detached. Thankfully, I caught it early, and the plant wasn’t damaged or broken.
I’m a bit hesitant to build a fence, even if it’s just a low one because someone might get envious again and have it removed. Just last week, the entire low fence I made was taken down by a government worker, and there was nothing I could do about it. If I were to share all the details, those who see and read my blog would surely figure out who I am.
Now my plants are in a vulnerable condition, especially when they grow and start bearing fruit. I’m almost certain they’ll be stolen by passersby near my garden, especially the Indians who love squash, chili, tomatoes, and the shoots of squash and chili plants. This has been happening to me year after year, and even my fake CCTV couldn’t do anything about it.
I think I’ll just maintain the cleanliness around my plants and slightly elevate the soil to serve as a low barrier for my garden. However, it’s still possible for anyone to cross over, especially those who prefer taking shortcuts instead of using the proper path. This often leads to my squash plants being stepped on and damaged. Unfortunately, some people don’t seem to care or appreciate the value of these plants, likely because they don’t understand their importance.
For my extra chili and cherry tomato plants, I might just transfer them to my spare pots. It might be a bit challenging to ensure proper nutrients for the soil, but I'll manage. For now, this is all the updates I have for my garden.
