September Update: Starting Over
It's been a long time since I've contributed to the Hive Garden community, and I've missed you all. Wait, I have a reason for not update. It's not that I didn't want to, it's not that i am so busy, and it's not that I was lazy. It's just that I didn't plant anything last August.
It's sad, but life must go on. Slowly, this summer is starting to fade, and there are already some rain showers, even at night. For about 10 days, it rained at night, even if it was only for 15 minutes, but that meant the soil was starting to rewet, signaling that it was ready to plant again.
As a hydroponic garden owner with seven years in the business, I firmly believe that the quality of the vegetables I grow depends on the weather. Too much heat causes yellowing of the leaves, which is quite unsettling, especially since all my vegetables will be sold and graded to get a higher price and a substantial margin.
This September, I planted a lot of vegetables. Some of the varieties, including bok choy, lettuce, and water spinach, are the favorites in my hydroponic system. I started transplanting the kale seeds, which had already broken seeds, ready to be transplanted into the seed trays I'd lined with cotton.
I'd soaked the kale seeds for two days; you can see for yourself how beautiful they were when they sprouted. Some of the seeds that didn't sprout were discarded, as it would have been pointless to force them to grow. That's why sprouting the kale seeds was so important.
It was clear that the bok choy and lettuce were already growing beautifully. They'd been in place for days, and they would be ready for harvest in two weeks. There was a significant amount of effort involved, as I hadn't expected the rain and was a little worried that the timing wouldn't be right. However, the universe provided a wonderful answer, giving them life to continue living and being useful to humans. How kind nature is to humans, isn't it?
Call me Isdarmady, sometimes Mady, Putra or anything you want. I have a pretty long name but call me very nicely. There are many things I like, especially hydroponics and coffee, sometimes I also like traveling and eating whatever I want. Life should be like that, there must be many things you like so you can live well. Of course, what you want is a dream, so, when you have a dream then what you have to do is to achieve that dream, don't just let it be a dream.
There are many things I tell on my Blog, I hope you like it. Never hesitate to leave a comment, because your comments mean so much to keep me moving forward.

The bok choy and lettuce are growing so nicely and in just a short time you will enjoy a fresh harvest. Even if the rain made you worry, the plants still received what they needed and grew strong. Nature really has its own way of giving us what is best and your effort in taking care of them shows good results.
To do all that, I've been continuously learning for the past 8 years, and it's been a lot of fun.
Following your Blog for a long period of time now and I really like taking a look at what you are doing and how things are working out for you. Love to see how many plants you are growing in such a small space - fascinating. :D
Always had similar ideas, but using a aquapinic system - maybe some day, when everything else is finished.^^
Happy to see you are still going for it! :)
Edit: Finally also found that Follow-Button. :D
I've tried aquaponics and it's not something I can do, but it's actually quite profitable to get the right food source.
Due to limited space or what was the problem you had to face if I may ask?
Weather is everything. I'm moving half an hour away and the climate is different even there! I can plant a few weeks early in the season. Good thing about yoru climate and your system and the plants you grow is that things grow FAST!
The weather has been truly unpredictable lately, even changing so easily. It's a shame, as the earth is probably tired of all the destructive actions of humans.
