I have a redundant section of my garden which I have been stocking with unused soil and other stuffs. I have decided to clear it off and start planting some vegetables.
I threw some Salad and Spinach seeds and hopefully it will start to grow shoot soon. But my previous experience have not been successful. I used to grow them in little pots but this time round, I am too lazy. So, I just threw it into the ground.
Also, with that, I have grown some Malabar Spinach (red vine), Sweet Potato leaves and "Kangkung" (water spinach).

| Metal Trellis used with water pipe cut |
The metal water pipe was used for this section of the garden. I realised that the metal water pipe was definitely much stronger than the plastic pipe. It will also last for a long time. Most beneficial growing fruits e.g. water melon, honey dew or any other fruits or vegetable that is heavy.

| Malabar Spinach: Red vine variety |
More Sweet Potato leaves. I know, I know, I can eventually start selling some at the local Market
I might have been a little overzealous with propagating the Sweet Potato leaves. Maybe, I will leave this section for the Malabar Spinach (red vine), not sure. I will decide later.
I might even be able to sell it at the "Pasar Malam" (night market in Bahasa Malaysia). Me, the part-time farmer :-)
