30.05.26 - Plumeria - Frangipani 🌱planting,
called Leelavadee in Thai.
One of my favorite decorative flowering tree.
There are so many variety with different color, shape and fragance.
I intend to plant many different varieties, from cutting propagation but also growing from seeds

30.05.26 - many see this as waste, I don’t.
Most gardening clearing company would either burn or put in landfill.
I see this is free material that I can use to my advantage.
While some palm leaves take long time to degrade, this is perfect for my ground cover, creating a walking path from nature waste.

31.05.26 - Mucuna pruriens var. utilis

Velvet bean - (non-itchy variety) Grown from seeds.

The goal is to get seeds than use as a ground cover plant. This will help to suppress w**d and provide mulch.
The big advantage is that it’s an excellent nitrogen fixer, perfect for my goals to regenerate the soil. I am growing it near new plants and trees but keep an eye so it doesn’t take over 😄 especially seedlings and young plants.

24.05.26 - Finally, complete the mission.
Over 70m East side boundary covered with mulch, about 1.5m length. Not really even but at least it’s covering the ground and making a natural, living barrier. I already started to plant banana trees, and mulberries.

I will continue to expand to slowly building a better soil.

Then I want to grow a line of bamboo to make a tall dense natural sound barrier.

30.05.26 - 🍉 watermelon decided to pop up on its own.
Seed likely was in the compost.

Will this be our first fruit product in GAIA?! 😇

May 24th 2026 - 🌴🥥Coconut Kathi variety, planting my first Cocos nucifera (L.) (Arecaceae)
Starting with 3 - north, east, west boundaries.
Rather than digging a hole, I added compost, and leaves mulch with already fungi activities and wood chips. Topped with banana leaves to keep the soil moist and protect from the heat.

Now, care and patience.

May 24th 2026 - 🍉 what a happy surprise to find this baby watermelon. The plant likely sprouted from a seed in the compost.
This will be the first. Can’t wait to taste it, although I don’t put high expectations 😅 but that a good start 😇

May 23rd 2026 - 🫚 Beautiful Galangal Flower

23/05/2026

May 23th 2026 - 🌳 It’s been weeks since my last visit. I was not worry given it has been raining heavily every day since.
Last time it was all dried up and the plants were on survival mode.

I was excited to see how it look after some rain.

The banana trees are all developing very well, my passion fruits, pineapples too.
A papaya tree emerged and Thai melon is covering the mulch.

And w**ds of course is the expending.
The water drain very slowly, leaving a puddle in part of the land. While the other plot is already flooded.

May 2026 - 🍃🍂FREE Nature gold ready to pack and transfer.

Woodchips and leaves have been there for month and with the recent daily rain it is the perfect environment to make great natural feed for the soil.
There is a lot of fungi activity and the wood chip already start to nicely decompose.
This is perfect for mulching.

There is plenty to use, so I have packed a big bag to bring it to GAIA in my effort to regenerate the soil.

I create this space just below Acacia auriculiformis so the are constantly loosing leaves so it fill the space.
