As
I planted petchay in a recyclable bottle (coca cola 1.5) where I cut it into
half and put some holes under the bottle so that there’s an exit for the water
every time I am going to water the plant. I started putting 5 seeds in the
bottle that I recycled, for 2-3 days I saw small buds growing out of the soil.
Every morning I take a look on it and sprinkle some of water then put it
outside our house to have some sun light that every plants needed. When I was
in grade 11 we also have this project planting pechay in our science subject
and the whole section were assigned to give it to the people who lives near the
particular streets. It is good that I have planted this and for the time that I
may harvest this pechay plant I’m gonna cook it and share with my family. For now
it was still growing the leaves are 2-3 inches.
