The rain that occurred last week was very unpredictable, that's what caused many things to happen. However, almost every time it rains, a rainbow definitely appears, although it doesn't happen every time. The rain that occurred made me often feel grateful, that rain always brings blessings to those who know it.
This time the rainbow was not the one seen in the air, there were 7 colors from the reflection of light and also raindrops. No, that's not what I mean. However, this time the rain brought a blessing to my small garden. It is not a common thing to happen, however, over time they even grow very well without any help.
Hydroponics is not an easy thing like thinking about vegetables that are planted above water and without using soil elements. Although it looks like a concept like that, hydroponics still needs one of the most important things on this earth, namely the Sun. The sun emits UV and that makes these vegetables good for the body and useful as human food.
For almost 3 weeks my hydroponics seemed to lack sun, because the rain always covered the sun with its black clouds. It turns out, that makes the sun always look forward to me. Indeed, this season is really very difficult, the sun is still there even though it's only for a few hours. I thought it was not easy for a hydroponic farmer.
I thought everything would fail, but in fact my plants grew well, the leaves bloomed and even without pests, yellowing leaves or other problems. Everything seemed to be without obstacles, without difficulty. Making my entire garden filled with hydroponic vegetables look very happy, they live with a struggle that is not easy either.
I tried not to give pesticides in any natural type, trying to survive by maintaining the fertilizer levels only. Almost every day my hands ached to see and check with tools such as ph meters and TDS. It turned out that my efforts did not betray the results.
Until finally I could say, there is a rainbow after the rain. Isn't that right?
Lettuce, green mustard, water spinach and also bitter mustard greens seemed to really struggle, they were able to survive in unpredictable weather conditions. As if everything seemed to be going well, even though I knew how tired they were of surviving in the midst of this difficulty.
This is something valuable to me, a lesson I can take. As if, if everything is made difficult, then there will be results later, and now all that happened like a fortune that was picked up with all the effort.
Now everything is very good for the harvest season next week. I can't wait for that day to come, where I will be busy arranging time to harvest and also bring in new seedlings that will replace them all.
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.
