The weather that often lies lately makes us realize, is this earth that damaged? There are so many facts about the weather that we often just miss, so we don't realize that one of the sources of damage to this earth is humans themselves.

Often complaining because the rain comes too early or out of season is a way for humans to blame other things, when in fact they should blame themselves. In fact, November to February is a very good time for weather in Southeast Asia, where it will be cool without rain. However, lately all of that has been a lie.

The rainy season has arrived and the weather is sometimes so bad. Inconsistent weather is a barrier for farmers to farm and plant their commodities, the result is less than optimal production. For me, this is something that must be studied more deeply.

At the beginning of January, there was sunny weather but not too hot, the wind that blew also made it cool. So I think it's a good thing to renovate all the hydroponic equipment and start anew. But, in mid-January, everything started to change, the rain didn't even stop from day to day.

As a result, after the seeds were sown, everything went smoothly. However, when it was mid-January, I was worried that all these vegetables would lack sunlight. Unfortunately, it had been raining for 2 weeks and the sun didn't shine which was covered by dark clouds.

The growth of my vegetables began to decline, there were some seeds that even failed and I had to throw them away. The yellowing leaves were the most significant thing that could be seen clearly. Sadly, I had to try every day to control all these hydroponic vegetables.

Do you still remember the mint leaves that I replanted at the end of last December? Only mint leaves grew very thickly and maximally. The leaves that grew very wide and also had many branches. It seemed like they were happy to grow in a season like this. Indeed, sometimes mint leaves are unpredictable.

I only plant vegetables that are easy to grow, especially with weather like this. so the tallest and best growing is green mustard. One of the vegetables that I rarely plant, because the selling price is quite low here, but it is very easy and resistant to weather. This is a type of green mustard with a bitter taste. My mother and father's favorite.

In addition, I have never shown some other plants to fill the empty space on the hydroponic shelf. Succulent. It has been in my garden for a long time but is often not cared for, but always grows well in its respective pots. They look beautiful even though if you hold them, the outer skin of your fingers will be pricked by thorns which are a little painful. But they will be very beautiful to look at and care for in the weather that often changes.

I think it's rainy season all over Southeast Asia right now. It's not too hot here in the Philippines, and it rains every week, which I am happy at. I have no idea it can be bad for the plants.

However, lately all of that has been a lie.

Now a days, it's difficult to predict the weather, I think, impact of global warming.

It is very unfortunate that this happened and the earth is getting more damaged because of humans.

To predict the weather is very difficult, in my area the current weather is also not normal, often changing, of course, young plants have a great impact on unstable weather factors.

I love this types garden. This garden is very beautiful.
