Mix Goodies ( photo / image / picture from KK Ng's Garden ) Today I did my veggies standing up including the Brassicas, yes I stood up and harvested them. The corn and the brinjals, I had to stoop a little. The Brassicas are from the aquaponic system and it is my first harvest. Since the grow beds are about waist high, so no need to get down, it's great! The corn we had them for dinner and it is as good as the first time. Corn on tassel! ( photo / image / picture from KK Ng's Garden ) This time there is a different on the tassels, there were corn grains growing on it ...... is this normal?
wonderful harvest there kk! what are brinjals? eggplants? not sure about the kernals forming on the tassels kk, but i have seen some of that on our corn too.
KK, Thats beautiful!!!!! I have seen our corn do the same thing also. I don't think it's anything to worry over.
It happens from time to time KK. Alan Bishop, or tom Wagner can probably tell you more of the botany, for why it happens. It doesn't hurt anything...
Thanks all, Bunkie brinjals and ball oops!! eggplants is the same. I don't like to call it eggplants because instead of egg, I always say ball even though egg is in my mind! It is kind of a embrassing sometimes!! Looks like the corn on tassel is not uncommon, this is my second time planting corn and it is interesting to see new things. Bee on tassel ( photo / image / picture from KK Ng's Garden ) I never knew that bees had a thing for tassels, I found a few of them doing that. It is indeed very delicious, we had the brassica for lunch today and it was sweet and tender ..... yummy!! Yes, there is more to come Eileen. Coppice I guess it is just normal since it is not only happening to me . Cherylad sometimes I wish I can get harvest like that everyday.
