Hello, how are you ☺️ I hope you are doing great right now.
I am Sheryl, a newbie here in ASEAN community, I'm from Surigao del Norte, Philippines. I like to write any content that I want. I like to read books and also playing volleyball. So that's my short introduction I hope you like it. 🤗
Today we are here to visit my father's farm here in province. He is planting a cucumber 🥒. He likes to plant cucumber because it is good for the health.
Cucumber is a nutritious fruit with a high water content. Eating cucumber may help lower the blood sugar, prevent constipation and support weight loss. To maximize cucumber's benefits eat the peel too. Though commonly thought to be a vegetable but cucumber is a fruit.
My child likes to eat cucumber fruit. As we can see she has a very big smile.
When we visit the farm of my father, his cucumber has not yet having a cucumber 🥒 fruit. As we can see it has a lots of flowers. And a days or weeks goes by the flowers turn into a cucumber fruit.
And there we go, we harvested already the cucumber 🥒. While harvesting a cucumber we are eating too😊. As we can see there is a lot of cucumber we harvested. We got thirteen sacks of cucumber fruit. "oh that's so good". With that my father is very happy because not all farmers are lucky to reach like that in one time harvest got the amount of a cucumber fruit.
And after we harvested the cucumber fruit. We washed it one by one to make the fruit clean and eat to eat. Then, we let it dry before putting in the sacks. After 5 mins. We will put it inside the sacks one by one again in that sacks. And we will make sure that the cucumber fruit is safe and it will not easily broken because if it will broke the buyer will not buy it. That's why be careful.
So, after putting in the sacks, my father ride the cucumber on his back and travel it up until along the road. He ride 1 sack per travel that's what my father's work every harvesting time. He is very hardworking and brave. After he travel the cucumber fruit, he fund the tricycle to ride again the cucumber fruit to the downtown together with my father. When he came to the buyer, the buyer weighted all the cucumber fruit and the gross weight of the thirteen sacks of cucumber is 410 kgs. And the net weight is 400 kgs. And each kilo is 20 per kilogram.
So with that my father is so happy because he can buy something for his kids. And also he can buy a viand and rice for his family.
