Home Garden Products, Chilies and Other Vegetables.
In the world of agriculture, it is currently in good condition, every result obtained by farmers from the harvest on their plantations provides a fair price for a struggle that they fight for in their daily lives, it can even be said to cover all the initial capital when farming that they spend on fertilizer costs and also the purchase of medicines for each planting season of the plants they produce during the harvest season.
At this time I began to realize that I had to start trying to learn to farm in the world of agriculture, although what I am doing now cannot be included in the category like other successful farmers, but I try it slowly by planting as much as I can by planting one plant every day. I think it is enough to start with 1 stem for each day first as a form of experiment to create enthusiasm in moving the body to start all the journeys in farming.
And This is the result of the chili plant that began to give a little harvest from what I have started periodically in the past few months, although not as much as other plants or other farmers but I am sure it will give maximum results if I am serious about continuing to develop it in every day of my farming journey. And I continue to try to be able to plant various plants around the house as a simple, practical and hygienic home-style farming step, besides planting young plants that cannot survive for a long time, I also plant many other plants such as Papaya and tubers.
Papaya and sweet potatoes are intercrops, because behind these plants I use them as a place to plant cayenne pepper plants as additional plants to meet the needs of cooking spices for home needs. If this planting process is successful to enter the harvest season, the rest of the harvest can still be shared with neighbors and can also be sold to traditional markets to get money for daily economic needs.
For a small garden in the yard, of course, you can't just plant cayenne pepper, because we also have to try to plant several other plants to provide several types of results when harvesting, such as cassava leaves can be cooked as additional side dishes when eating, and shrimp paste becomes its true friend. As for long beans and other vegetables, I only plant them for vegetable needs at home and I intend to plant them to sell at the market when harvesting.
In between taking care of the plants, I also tried to cultivate some aloe vera plants in flower pots, This planting is just a hobby in my spare time because I like the green color of aloe vera and its unique shape when viewed in the morning, and the appearance of aloe vera makes my eyes fresh when I see green plants like this growing well periodically. Durian is also one of the plants that I plant as a plant for the future, although from the planting process to fruiting, this plant requires a process of up to 4-5 years before we can enjoy the results, this is not a problem when we consider it as a long-term investment plant for us to enjoy and also enjoyed by our children and grandchildren and various other people later.
I think the most important thing is not what we can enjoy after planting, but what we can leave for others to enjoy after we plant because it will be an impression in life when we are able to leave something useful for family and others.
That's my post @bodrex27
