Hello everyone, Welcome.
How are you all? I hope you are in very good condition. It is really a pleasure to be able to communicate with Hivers, from blogs and works. I think, one of the things I can't skip in a week is communicating with all of you. Are you like me? Enough, this has made me very happy.
As a farmer today, I have been an expert in agriculture for the past 6 years, always making me learn and continue to learn like a doctor. If doctors always learn about human anatomy and the many diseases that mutate, the same is true for farmers, always learning in every period about many things. Gardens and everything about agriculture are also closely related to living things, in the form of plants and pests.
As the name implies, this time I am talking about something that is the foundation of us as farmers, the seed. The very first thing in the plant cycle, turns into a seed and continues to grow into a more mature one. Especially vegetables, starting from seeds and then becoming edible vegetables. Something small, turns into an important element for humans to continue to grow.
In this cycle, I am concentrating on something that has not been taken care of properly for a long time. Celery, as one of the small plants that is needed for cooking, every day. Celery is a favorite for more aromatic dishes, especially for soup and Chinese food.
Really, planting celery is not that easy, so as you know that celery has a fairly high price. Celery is also rich in antioxidants which are very important for cells in the body, especially the skin. My wife likes to put celery in every smoothie, even though the aroma is really fragrant, she said it was important to keep her skin healthy.
I started sowing from seeds until it became like it is now, already has 2-3 leaves that look very fresh. Using cocopeat to grow it for 10 days. It has progressed a lot and I will transplant it in 2-3 days. I'm afraid the seedlings will be damaged if they are transplanted now. Especially I haven't prepared all the planting media. Different from other vegetables, I plant celery herbs in mixed soil.
The mixed soil, which I make every 2 weeks, is partly sold in 10 kilograms, the rest I use to place my plants that have to be transplanted. Including this celery cycle, I really wiped out all the planting media and mixed it with a better composition.
In addition to celery, I am also focusing on mint seedlings that I have cut the stems and grafted in rockwool. Slowly, the mint leaves begin to grow with stems that are quite long and provide space for the leaves to grow freely. In the seedling tray, this will greatly help the seedling process to be better, especially if planting in large quantities.
Mint leaves are also a favorite of several guests who come to the house, especially those who are planning to buy mint leaves. There is someone who always buys mint leaves every week, in fact, the stock I have is always bought up by him. It makes me quite confused because the stock of mint leaves is always running low.
Call me Isdarmady, because I have a full name that is very long, namely Isdarmady Syahputra Ritonga. I am a head of the family who work as Farmers Vegetables Hydroponic and Consultant Hydroponics, sometimes I also sell coffee from various regions in Indonesia.
I have expertise dispensing coffee with a variety of techniques and tools brewing, because I have the desire to make a coffee shop with hydroponics as centerpieces. Help me realize that dream.
Thanks for read, vote, re-blog and support me in Hive. Maybe god will reward the kindness, let’s success together.
