Garden Journal: It’s Not Always Easy

As someone already a bit of an expert in hydroponics, it doesn’t mean that I can do anything with hydroponics, it doesn’t mean that my hands can conjure up all the vegetable seeds to live and grow well. There are many factors that vegetable seeds to fail to grow.

It’s not always easy. Sometimes, plants can be angry with me, they sometimes don’t grow well, and there are often crop failures and failures to be distributed. Does that make me feel like a failure? Of course not. It makes me learn a lot. Often failure is a factor that I can compare the failure or success of my experiments.

Like the seeds that I have planted, I have given them good nutrition and lighting. However, there are other factors that make them die and not grow. Even though they are from the same seeds and the same treatment too. However, this one tray all died, it is possible that they lacked water and that caused them all to die. However, I can still be grateful for the other seeds that grew very well, in fact, only 10% failed.

This batch is intended for all water spinach seeds and lettuce. Being a favorite of many people as a vegetable that is easy to get, sometimes makes me very happy because when harvesting it, there are many mothers who are waiting for the freshness of the vegetables when harvested, and they will be very grateful for that. In fact, there is one person who will order one kilogram of lettuce every day if I harvest lettuce. I deliberately chose the tastiest and crunchiest seeds among them.

There is one seed that is indeed favored by many people, especially as a hydroponic lettuce farmer it is very profitable. I got a fairly heavy weight because the lettuce grew very large, even the stem did not taste bitter like romaine vegetables. You must really like romaine, right? it tastes very similar to that but the shape is lettuce.

Well, I will move this seed to Styrofoam which will await the arrival of new plants. It has been prepared by washing the Styrofoam on the inside which is replaced with a new tarpaulin and also new ab mix fertilizer. The rest I surrender to nature and God so that everything can run smoothly in growth.

Apart from seeds and baby spinach water, I also have something interesting in my garden this time. As I once told you about the celery that was still small a few weeks ago. Now, everything is very tall and growing very well, even the stems look very green and sturdy. Celery is a plant that takes a long time to grow, but is strong against challenges. Celery is also a favorite food ingredient as an addition to making soup during the transition period.

It's great to be able to share the happy news that is in my garden this week. See you again!
