Summer 1, 518AV
Summer had finally approached, Baeye had been waiting for the season change to officially begin her new garden. Her recent movement into the Okomo Estates provided the perfect avenue to grow vegetables from her own home. The Estates provided the homeowner with a personal, if not small, plot of land for growing. The soil was, supposedly, fertile and Baeye was excited to try her hand at gardening at home.
Previously she had simply farmed and gardened for a professional use. This made her happy, and she was not one to complain. However, she never had a direct choice in the growing process because of this. She had attempted growing some plants out of pots in the house, but there was something about kneeling in the soil under the sun that called to the woman. Now she had the perfect place to do so.
She had carefully researched and chosen specific vegetables to begin sowing in the Summer. It was important she only plant vegetables that could actually survive the warm air of the season. Fruits, and their soft textures and mushy outsides usually did not fair well in the semi-harsh environment. Baeye would have to rely on their hardier plants to make it through the season. She finally decided on a top five, kale, broccoli, turnip, cauliflower, and her favorite, carrot. All these veggies had a hard, dense exterior and Baeye was confident that if she sowed and cared correctly, she would end up with a bountiful harvest.
She had acquired five seeds each of the plants of choice. It was possible that may be too few and she was slightly worried about losing all five of each seed, which would end up in a complete loss of the plant itself for the season. However she did not want to go too big and end up with too large of a garden, both for her own time as well as her garden space.
Some of the plants she chose had to be planted inside. The kale broccoli and cauliflower were to fragile in their seed state to be planted directly outside. The carrot and turnip, however, were steady enough to germinate in the actual soil. For now, the prior three would germinate in small flower pots she had in her home. They would sit in the windowsill during the warm days to oak up the sun, and placed on the table at night so they would not be too cold.
