One  broccoli seedling was planted and it   has developed well .  I did not consumed its flower but

I have left it for the seeds.IMG_4438

I have also tried to make use of waste  thermocole  packaging material  for growing vegetable. A lid

of plastic container with a small hole has  been placed inside as base. I have planted  mint cuttings

and the germination of new leaves is  good.
