Greetings Steemians I am glad participating in this Contest.
Garden is a planned space set aside mainly for display, cultivation and enjoying plants. Some garden are for ornaments only while others are for production of food crops.

Gardening is the act of growing and cultivating plants.

This is my little home garden where I plant maize.
Maize has become a staple food in many parts of the world,
Corn is used as animals feed, as human food, as biofuel, and as raw material in industry.

  • Mostly yellow and white corn are the most popular as food, though there are others with red, blue, pink, and black kernels, often banded and stripped,

When you plant maize from the seed It takes 58_92 days for the mature ears to produce...if it is been transplanted as corn seedlings in the garden it will take 31_71 days for it to produce ears.

I planted my maize as a feed on the 1st of April and it is growing really fast , the constant rain here enables it to grow very well. Although I make sure I weed the grasses anytime they are grown and also I apply fertilizer to the maize to make it grow faster .
