Sheng Siong Supermarket had opened on 1st Jan 2020 after Giant Supermarket had close for a month last year in Dec 2019. We use to plant Cherry Tomato long time back when they are selling seed at the Shop N Save Supermarket, but the plant never survive the storm after bearing fruit three months later. So now we decided to start with Pearl Tomato and Capsicum again since the Supermarket had start selling seed once more.

My Wife wanted to try Wheat Grass too as she heard it is very easy to grow and had good nutritious value, so we brought the seed, soil and pot to start our little farm. We never expect the farm to turn into so big from the start, my Sixth Aunt try to encourage us by giving us a lot of stuffs which help to expansion it into a large scale agriculture project.
We put the whole packet of Tomato and Capsicum seed into the pot with soil directly, but for the Wheat Grass my Wife wanted to let it sprout by using the proper procedure. The Wheat Grass sprout just after one night of soaking in water but my wife decide to let it sprout more for another night before she transfer into pot.
5th Jan 2020 Wheat Grass had Sprout after 2 days
Tomato sprout earlier than expected in just 3 days, the packaging instruction indicate a period of about 14 to 21 days. The Capsicum sprout much later after 8 days, but it is still much early than the expected 14 to 21 days period which they indicate on the packaging. Wheat Grass grow well in just 8 days, much faster than the 10 days which the packaging indicated.
The Wheat Grass were much less than expected, so it is not enough for juice which we had planned before. So I order 1 Kg of Wheat Grass Seed from Everything Green for the second planting, the delivery was faster than expected and we were able to sprout it in just one night by directly planting it into the pot of soil.

Sixth Aunt had given us a small pot of Peppermint, she told us it is very easy to grow by removing the bottom leaf on the stem and buried it in soil for it to sprout new plant. She also give us Peanut, Mulberry, Sweet Potato and Hyacinths with Long Pot and Hanging Rack, I also order a Bamboo Rack from Qoo10 for the bigger pot and future expansion.
