Amazing Experiment on Water - The Hidden Message in Water
Water - A utility we use and consume daily and is the initiation of all life form, holds a hidden message in it - Water has life and has consciousness! Water can hear, sense and remember our powerful words.
I decided to do an experiment on water in cook rice after watching several clips by Dr. Masaru Emoto famous research work. As we human is made up of mostly water, which is utmost important on the connectivity between them, as water can sense - especially our power word/speech (scientifically, vibration).
Heres the youtube video of the experiment... Enjoy!

Heirloom Cherry Tomato "Vilma" (Solanum Lycopersicum Vilma)
A forum friend has kindly shared some heirloom tomato seeds that he bought from a hort-park bazaar fair. Hence, am grateful to get a chance of trying to grow this little Heirloom Cherry Tomato "Vilma" for the first time. I grew them in my DIY Hydroponic Growing Cups (created from recycled disposable plastic & paper cups) with hydroponic nutrients AB in it. The nutrients water were top up once every few days and change anout once every 2 months.
This little Vilma is a popular variety of tomato due to its compact and dwarf size that best suit in container growing especially for balcony and windowsill with limited space apartment. It is belong to the tomato family of Solanum genus, Solanum Lycopersicum. This determinate plant reached about the height of 45 cm (LECA surface to Apex).
The cherry tomato fruits were harvested on 128 days of the plant growth from seed. Each fruit is about 2-3cm diameter, weigh between 15-20grams. It has thin smooth skin, a little tange with strong intense tomato flavor. A super yummy snack to have.
Along the course of this little Vilma growth, pictures were taken and had decided to compile it into a growing journal clips just for fun.
Hope you'll like it too.. enjoy!

Leafy Lettuce in DIY Hydroponic Growing Bottle
Did an experiment growing Leafy Lettuce from seed for the first time in my newly created
DIY Hydroponic Growing Bottle.
Due to the lack of direct sunlight, the lettuce has grown into a nicely figured cascaded style!! And it started to bolt too.
And here the growth development log clip of this Leafy Lettuce...

Fun with Moss (Embryophyte - Land Moss)
Moss, one of the few Bryophyte (embryophytes - land plants) on earth, that are so unique as compared to the usual plants we commonly know! Unlike plants that depend on tissue cells within them to transport water for growth, Moss do not have true vascular tissue to transport water within them. They depend on their surrounding environment to nourish themselves like raining, due and when we shower over them with water.
Moss propagate and reproduce via spore instead of seeds like common plant. They like damp and slightly acidic soil. But, they are really hardy IF AND ONLY IF the environment is in right condition for them to grow.
I've some moss grew naturally on my bonsai surface, which I think some spore may have flown from somewhere and somehow landed there (so we could have also breathe in some!!). Sometimes ago, I decided to do an experiment to grow them in several separate pots.
Since, I've enjoyed the fun of taking pictures, especially zoom-in to see their physical, and took some clips of them, and did few moss terrarium as can be seen in my video.
Enjoy...

DIY Hydroponic Growing Container
Experimenting using used container boxes, which usually used for containing take-away cooked food from food stall holder. It is also known as Tabao box.
Using the same technique as my previous DIY Hydroponic Growing Bottle without utilizing LECA(Light Expanded Clay Aggregate) balls. Using wool to hold the seeds/seedlings to grow edibles. The cover of the TaBao box is slit with holes to holds the wool with seeds or seedlings, and the box is fill with hydroponic A & B nutrient solution as fertilizer/food for plants.
A video of how I created my DIY Hydroponic Growing Container is done to share with anyone who wish to try for themselves...

Below some harvested Cai Sim, which grown under bright light (no direct sunlight given as my premises is blocked by neighboring building), at 102 days.
Hope with the idea of recycle and reuse these "unwanted used boxes", we can reduce the waste at least for more use before it is dump away...
Happy gardening.
