I have a 10'x20' plot of land behind my house. I am trying to grow some vegetable on it. Since it was left arid for many years it's not fertile. However, there is a thin layer of humus covering it. I decided to make use of this minimum support from the soil to cultivate some plants of tomoto and brinjal. The brinjal plants are taking long time to bear fruits . However , I have already got 2 kilograms of yield from the tomato plants.
Isn't it thrilling to see the fruit of your labor? In fact, isn't it true for any sphere of life? There's a saying in our local language - Fruit of labor is always sweet.

Yes, it is. I would have left the green tomatoes until they ripened, though.

I was able to buy two bags of sheep manure a few days ago so I'm adding that to our soil which isn't very fertile either.

Now that’s what you call from plot to table 
It's really rewarding seeing your tomatoes grow and yield like that, especially coming from soil that wasn’t even fertile to begin with. There’s just something special about growing your own food and seeing the results of your effort pay off. Why did you pick the green ones already? And im also curious what is Brinjal?
