My Little Garden

Two weeks ago. I have posted about my seeding activity, and today I will continue make a post about the next process and the development of my plants. By the way, for two weeks ago, my seeds did not get enough sunlight. Perhaps it was causing my seeds growth was not perfect. Tall thin stems with small leaves. But, I'm not going to cancel the next steps of my planting process. I will repeat the process after all steps done, whatever the result. One more time, this is not tutorial post, this is just my experience from what I'm doing.

Prepare the Netpot

Setting Up Equipment
First step, I prepared a place for my planting and some equipment (all equipment I have got from my training a couple weeks ago).
1. Water and nutrition place, I used plastic bucket.
2. Netpot, 5 pcs
3. Flannel fabric, 5 pcs with size 1.5cm x 15cm.
4. Styrofoam, with 5 holes. Size of the styrofoam was equal to the width of the brim.

Fill bucket with water

Water And Nutrition
After the equipment ready, I filled bucket with water. I used 1 liter bottle water and I mix with nutrient A and B. (I wasn't sure how much), but I used bottle cap for measuring (a cap each nutrient). I shake the bucket to make water and nutrients blended perfectly.

Nutrition

Planting The Plants
The next step, I separated my seeds from group and insert one by one to Netpot. I did it with carefully for make the plant and the rockwool not broken. Previously I plugged a piece flannel fabric in the bottom of the Netpot. When the plant in the netpot correctly, I put the netpot in to the hole of styrofoam that's I placed on the bucket.

Separated The Plants

Now, my plants has already planted. we'll see how it goes. I just need to keep the water and the nutrition level and keeps the plant not dry out. It is also important to make the plants get enough sunlight. Because I don't have green house or place with skylight, I must be patient to move my bucket everyday.
