Homesteading

Matthew 12:33📖
"Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for the tree is known by its fruit.🌱🐝

Wayback 2015 I started to invest in homesteading business and plated Red Cardinal Grapes on the backyard.

Location : Backyard, Bataan province

Climate : tropically cold (september)

I started to buy 100 pieces roots to start, I only search what to do on the internet but have no total proper knowledge how to grow grapes especially on a tropical weather.

So here it goes...

Some of them rooted properly, most died.

Thank You Lord! 😘
100 GrapeCuttings🍇🍇🍇

Tha time that is the only thing I can say..

I haven't capture all of them cause 80% was rotten and died (lugi na ako, kaya instead na business naging personal nalang)

But still praying to grow even 1 piece of it so that next time I know what to do.

struggle is real at it's best bes ...

You need to keep the surroundings wet for them to grow old... with you (charot)

Need to keep surrounding wet to keep them alive.

And on this sizeone I really wanted to cut it off and harvest them.. haha..

But that's not a good idea..

Patience is a virtue.. so wait.

John 15:5 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. ... No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine.❤💜💛

After taking risk on this, I feel fulfilled even no profit came but the happiness when you see it growing, it's like a child of yours..

But after the harvest it also didnt able to survive so I opted not invest again for the meantime.

It takes lot of patience,knowledge and hardwork for them to pruit.

Thanks for reading and viewing..
