Hydroponics 2



Mr. Rama [5]


"Have I followed every step


written in the book or not? Will the results match what


the one in the book or not?"


Questions like that still exist in


my mind. Each of my hands was cutting a bottle of mineral water into


section.


"Father amazed you," said Mr. Burhan who since


just sat cross-legged watching me make a network.


"I'm amazed why, sir. I feel like nothing special


from me," I said as I momentarily stared at Mr. Burhan, then I


back focus perforates each bottle cap with a nail.


"Either why. Since I first saw you at


terminals. I feel like there's something different about you than a child


young people your age out there.


"Mother could have. I feel there is no difference between


me and others."


"Your partner certainly has differences with others.


Nowadays it is very rare for a young person like you to help people


old like me. Not even my children take care of me


in the old age."


"That's because Mr. Burhan helped me once


early on I moved to this town. So I feel like I will be up to whenever


always have a debt of gratitude to Mr. Burhan."


My conversation with Mr. Burhan made me aware of one


thing. It turns out that when someone is already in the senior phase. That guy is very


expect attention and care from others. But very not


all seniors can spend their old age with people who


meaning in his life.


"Mother just calm down. Even though I'm not a father, I,


my father treated me like his own son. So too


with me. My father is not my father, but I will always be


treat my father like my own father" I said


staring at floor.


For a moment I remembered my two parents


died when I was in sixth grade. I don't want to sir


Burhan saw my sad face.

Two sets of paralon and twenty sets of water bottles


mineral I've finished. I started tying each rope on


the wood that sits on top of my boarding terrace. I slowly put the glass of mineral water


which I have hollowed into the hole which is in every paralon. Me too


put twenty sets of mineral water bottles in the patio area. Each


the circuit either from the paralon or from the mineral water bottle has been me


input water that has been given fertilizer a and fertilizer b according to the dose.


I chose to grow green lettuce because the vegetable had


the selling price is quite high. Every seed I accidentally seeded first in


the tray contains wet cotton after being given the fertilizer solution. A few days later


begin the seeds grow into plants as tall as the thumb of an adult.


I slowly put the vegetable seedlings into a series of parallons and a series of bottles


mineral water. In each series of previous paralon I have inserted skin


paddy or pasak into a plastic glass of mineral water that I have hollowed out.


Likewise with a series of mineral water bottles I have inserted rice skin


or pesak. The rice husk serves as a growing medium so that vegetables can be


sturdy standing.


I don't need to water the porters on that anymore with water


every morning and evening. Each root of the vegetable will absorb nutrients that


contained in water that has been given fertilizer a and fertilizer b. I really am


feeling grateful to the man who pioneered vegetable cultivation


with hydroponic techniques.


Growing vegetables with this technique keeps everyone from


make it easier again hydroponic techniques can be made from materials that are easy to find


so it does not have to cost much. Besides, everyone is not


it needs to require a large area of land to grow crops.


The plan I will later expand to make a series


mineral water bottle. So that I don't have to spend a lot of money to make


new network. Although what I have done is still a testing phase, but


I still hope that the practicum I do can be a job


sideline. I try as closely as possible so that no stages are missed


when doing this practice. So that I can minimize the occurrence of failure


harvests.


Maybe my dreams are too big, but there are none


it was his fault for me to dream. Later when the time of vegetable harvest has arrived I


will try to sell it to vegetable traders in the market. Considering I have


acquaintance of one of the owners of a vegetable stall there are several locations


meters from the rice kiosk I used to work at.


I think the life I'm living is approaching the word happy.


But apparently unexpectedly bad events will soon be


approached me.

Eric [5]


A hall that was in the nursing home had been crowded


by elderly humans. In this house there are one hundred and thirty people


old people who must be willing to spend their senile time away from relatives.


There are many neatly arranged chairs that have been taken by the residents


this nursing home. There was a long table on the right side of the hall that was filled


many foods and drinks can be eaten after a prayer event


completed implemented. Food and drink were adapted to


snacks allowed by parents who began to experience the disease


diabetes, high blood pressure, and so on.


I was stunned to see the look on the faces of the residents of the parlour


which had been filled with wrinkles and strands of her hair had turned white. Even


there are also residents of the orphanage whose hair is rarely not as wide as when


he was young first. The look in their eyes emitted the same expression as each other


another was a deep sadness in their hearts. Even if I look


a single smile was painted on their faces, but it was all unable to


hiding what they really feel right now.


I understand very well what feelings are currently entrenched in


their minds. They all must be currently envious of the path of life


now passed by my father. The father is now the same age as the residents of the orphanage


elderly, but did not suffer the same fate as them. The seniors in


here there is no chance to get an abundance of affection from


children . Different from them the residents of the parlour, my father at his old age


get a chance to feel the abundance of affection from me who


his son.


Since then, the event has begun with the presentation of a second


broken from my father and me in turn. We convey the purpose of its holding


prayer together in this nursing home. We spoke on the podium slowly


I pushed my father's wheelchair, which was assisted by the parlour attendant, towards


the front row seats occupied by other parlour officers.


When I and my father got back to the row of seats in the section


fore. A young man who was very enthusiastic to meet my father, he


continue to convey the arrangement of prayer together in memory of ten tofu


mother's death.


"Okay the audience, the next event conveying the impression


from a former neighbor of Mr. Burhan's family" the parlour clerk said


while occasionally staring at the father and the other attendants. "This guy


is a representative of the residents of the orphanage who will return to remember the figure of the mother


Wanda during her life who contributed to this nursing home. Okay, Mr. Bakrie


please step up to the podium."
