Hello everyone, this is my first post for the Hive gardening community sponsored by @ybanezkim26, I want everyone to know that I am a vegetable gardening lover.

Actually I am not a full-fledged gardener, in my spare time at home I do something more initiative, rather than idle. A vacant lot behind the house, I want to know what it's like to be a gardener and how it works. Empty land area of ​​approximately 500 square meters, I turned it into a vegetable garden, namely spinach, previously this land was overgrown with weeds, I gave fungicide to eradicate it.

Speaking of vegetable gardens, I have never tried anything with farming before, sometime in the last week, my work is on vacation together well, I use that time for farming, I usually mention intensive gardening, first I use compost in the form of cow manure or cow dung and sprinkle evenly from the surface of the soil that I want to sow spinach seeds.

Fertility is felt from the dark green spinach leaves, I planted two rows of spinach, I think for another row, I will plant watermelons and onions, this process may be faster for spinach growth, within two weeks it can be harvested.

I purposely made a small ditch between the rows to make it easier for me when watering and also to be protected from puddles when it rained heavily. The thought occurred to me even though the weather was hot, sometimes it rained heavily from time to time and the surrounding water was puddled.
I try to grow crops without using fungicides to be more natural. The biological fertilizer that I use is cow dung, this fertilizer is more perfect and has high calcium and is very good for fertilizing plants.

Practical enough to be a farmer, I prefer this job to find the thrill of being a real gardener. Spinach that is even two weeks old is ready to be harvested, slowly, I do it by pulling the spinach.

Some of these spinach have strong market interest, some are brought to the market. Healthy plants are always hunted after people, gardens which are classified as important to have an agricultural mindset, I think it's quite important if someone lives in a rural area, especially around a fairly large plantation area.

Some small trees I cut down so that the young sun shines for better growth. The rest of the wood chips that I burn are also quite good for compost, I sprinkle them from each row where I give the seeds, besides the onion and watermelon seeds are in the seeding stage so they are easy to move when they are one week.

Some of them I have successfully patented, then I will prepare the second planting after the seedlings are one week old. I bought some equipment at the store in the form of a hoe, spray, fungicide and seeds for the initial cleaning. I made an intensive garden with my own desire to try to taste the vegetables from my own produce. :)

I hope you have the ultimate farming mindset trying things out by yourself from start to finish and harvesting them.
