We continued our work on the central pathway while planting and caring for greens. This involved heavy duty work of installing rain water draining pipes between east and western beds. Also we had to install a cement pipe to protect the gate valves that control drip irrigation.
19 April was the day we wanted to plant all the saplings:
- brinjal (we used seeds from TNAU to create our own saplings)
- tomato (bought from a nursery -variety Shivam)
- chilli (bought from a nursery - variery Bullet)
- papaya (bought from a nursery - variery Red Lady)
We used the same bio fertilizer mix as we used for the greens.
To make the planting follow a straight line, we tied guiding rope on both ends.
