Forty-five days later, here's what greeted "tatay" while watering the plants in the morning: okras in flowering stage.
 

After a grandslam loss battling against weeds and grass which seem to grow overnight, we needed  some sort of strategy. With tatay's extensive knowledge on agriculture, it was decided that we plant something to serve as ground cover. Simultaneously, pumpkins and okra were planted on two areas of the empty lot. Twenty-one days later, watermelons were planted in between the okra hills while pechay were grown in a seedbed next to the pumpkin patch. In one more month not only will our weed problem reach it's end. We'll have more grown vegetables than the family can consume as well.
