Hello everyone
This morning, I went jogging with my wife and we went to have breakfast at a coffee shop together.
My morning mission, aside from exercising,
When I get home, I will report about my pets.
As usual, after I have fed my pets, I come back to rest at home. Today, the weather is not very hot. It seems like it is going to rain. Today, I sat and observed the ground floor of the house and found that the sky is quite dark. So I went to look in the garden where I connected the solar panels using solar energy. In conclusion, the water did not flow because there was not enough sunlight.
So I walked back to the house again. The area around the house is moist and refreshing because I connected the water to the roof of the house.
Using the electricity from the house to help the water flow this time.
Two years ago, when I first came here, I tried connecting the solar panels and the pump to water from a well that I dug about 13 meters deep of cement.
And the water in my well flows very well. My experiment with connecting the solar panel and pump to this pond failed because the solar panel and solar energy could not suck water up from the pond. It was probably because of the depth and insufficient light because I planted many trees in this area, such as jackfruit trees and many other fruit trees, so there was not enough light to use the solar panel. So I gave up and used the solar panel in other areas of the garden. As for the water in this pond, I used the house's electricity as a connector and it worked very well. As I said before, I connected the water to ventilate my house to keep it moist and cool. My purpose was to pump water from the pond to release water to the lotus pond in front of my house because when it rained heavily in that area, the fish in my big pond swam into the lotus pond. Now, the lotus pond is starting to dry up. So I have to pump water from the pond to put in the lotus pond or lotus pond so that these fish do not dry up. But since I have to connect water to put in, I came up with an idea. Why don't I connect the water to the roof to ventilate and make the house moist as I said? Since I'm going to pump water to the lotus pond anyway, I connected the water system to the roof. And the water that flows down from the roof flows to the surrounding area. The house has prevented the vegetables, fruits, and trees in this area from having to be watered for several days. There are some parts that my wife wants to water herself, and there are some. But right now, my house is cool and comfortable all day. I will turn it on for 1-2 hours and then turn it off, then turn it on and off again.
It's time for lunch. Today my wife cooked sour pork belly curry with bird's eye fat. I don't know if my friends know it or not. And another menu is pork belly boiled with Chinese herbs. The weather is changing these days. I took my daughter this morning. I drove to buy food for my wife at the store. The food I bought was pork belly with Chinese herbs. When I arrived, I gave the food to my wife. She cooked quickly. We ate lunch.
After lunch, the sun came out. The sun was hot, so I asked my wife to lift the solar panel from the side of the house to the garden. My wife and I helped lift it together. When we arrived at the gate, I planned the solar panel and then removed the water pipe to clean it. When I finished cleaning, I lifted the solar panel into the garden. This solar panel is placed on the bank. I started clearing the area before putting the solar panel down. In case my pets step on the solar panel, which is a cow. I have to make it neat. Then I put the solar panel down and checked the wiring. It's done.
I walked to get the toolbox and went to check the water and another solar panel on the cart. But I noticed why the water was not flowing. So I walked down to the pump and lifted the pump that was in the water to look. I was curious and noticed that in addition to the water not flowing, the pump was also silent. Because I did not hear any noise from the pump. It was very quiet.
So I walked to get the equipment to unplug the wires and look at the pump again. In conclusion, the pump was probably broken. So I took the new one that I bought to change it. Oh, I forgot to tell you that this is a new one that I bought as well. But I connected it yesterday and it worked well. But today, it broke. Each one costs more than 300 baht. I ordered 2. The total price including shipping is about 700 baht. Now 1 is broken. And today I connected the 2nd one to use instead of the 1st one. Let's see if it will break like the first one. The group that I connected the motor and wired.
My wife called me to look at the bird that was not far from me. The bird that I saw in the morning the day before, it camouflaged itself by standing in the middle of the water in the grass in the middle of the pond. It must be looking for food. But it was not afraid of me and my wife at all.
When the system is connected and the motor is changed, the water runs as usual. I stopped connecting the solar panels with the submersible motor for now. I should order a new one because the spare motor that I will use today must be replaced with yesterday's one.
Pick up my daughter from school because it's time. I have to prepare things for the trip to Bangkok on Saturday morning. This evening, I will prepare the pet food because I let my sister stay with me to take care of my mother and be with my youngest daughter because she has to go to school. I will go to Bangkok with my wife to attend my brother's funeral. This trip has to be prepared because I take care of many animals, including my mother. I have to prepare everything carefully. After picking up my daughter from school, I took her to the market. I stopped to buy coconut husks. Some shops that sell coconut milk also have coconut husks, but some shops don't because they have to book in advance. But today, I got 2 bags of coconut husks. I can use them to mix food for my pets.
After leaving the market, I stopped at a pet food shop to buy chicken food, cat food, and fish food. Then, we continued our journey.
Go to a plastic equipment store. This store sells everything and the prices are cheap because they are made in China. My wife came to buy a basin to give to her Sulcata tortoise. I don't know what she's going to do with the basin. When she got to the store, she went to choose. I saw that she bought several of them. But I headed to this store because I came to buy a power bank. I'm getting ready for a trip. This equipment is a must-have for long-distance travel.
Driving home, the phone rang, so I answered the phone and found out that there was a delivery. So I told the staff to deliver it to my aunt's house. When I drove to my aunt's house, I brought the stuff back home. The box said "tree", so I asked my wife what we ordered. It said "tree". My wife said that she ordered a male salak tree.
So I unpacked the box and looked for a place to plant it. Then I found a place to plant it. I planted it in the chicken coop, the area where I raise chickens. I just connected the water pipe in that area. So I used a hoe and a bucket to water it, and a tree to cover the area so that the ducks wouldn't disturb the male salak tree that I planted.
It didn't take long to plant because I only ordered one tree.
The price of a male salak tree is 300 baht per tree. My wife said to test it first because the price is quite high. As for me, I only have female salak trees. I planted them 3 years ago and now the female salak trees are blooming a lot. I just found out that salak trees can be divided into male and female trees. It's really messy because when the female salak trees bloom, there are no male trees in my area. This is the reason why I had to order male salak trees to plant. I will update my friends to see if the male salak tree I planted will survive or not.
Finished planting the male salak tree.
It's time to bring the head into the pen and feed the fish, ducks and chickens. Today I have to say goodbye for now. See you again tomorrow.
Wow ,sounds like you had a very busy and productive day! From jogging with your wife to taking care of your pets, it’s amazing how you balance everything. I love how you’re experimenting with solar energy and working to make your garden more efficient with water systems. Your journey with the solar panels and pumps shows how dedicated you are to finding creative solutions for your home.
It was also great to read about your family activities, like the delicious lunch your wife made and the exciting discovery of the male salak tree! I’m sure it will thrive just like your other plants.
Wishing you all the best with the rest of your preparations for your trip to Bangkok. I hope everything goes smoothly, and the male salak tree flourishes! Looking forward to hearing more updates from you. 😊🌱
Thank you very much for following my story. Let's find out together which method will be the most effective.
