I've tried the Burpee seeds here and found out that there is a "Heat Wave Tomato" that seems to produce more fruit than other varieties. Burpee doesn't ship overseas so you need to have a contact in the USA who can send them over to you. I also got some red okra which is doing extremely well. I live right on the Sea so I have some different problems that can be challenging. With the weather recently being a little cooler I've had a lot of success with Green Bush Beans and Eggplant.

Not my expertise, I'll just have to take your word for it.

Gardening is good, and it earns quite well if you are able to grow your vegetables well. There's not much vegetable plantations here in the province, and there are definitely a lot of places where you can grow these plants. There is a lot of market too, with the nieghboring areas such as Cebu and Bacolod growing fast, I guess people here would be eating a lot of vegetables. I guess it only takes some initiatives to come up with good vegetable plantations and earn from them well.

I heard bell peppers are good vegetables to grow because they are not cheap and they do not perish as fast as other vegetables such as eggplants or green leafy vegetables. Some of my friends said that we should definitely use less fertilizers and pesticides to make our vegetables healthier and taste better to the palates.
