Yeeees today I finally asked my husband to harvest beans in the garden, which use "Sistem Tumpangsari" or intercropping systems. The meaning of intercropping is to plant some plants in a plot of land, example in this land planted sugarcane, corn and chickpea.
At 16.00 Western Indonesia Time (WIB) we arrived at location, the sun was still very hot, can we see the picture below.
Immediately, I give my husband the same direction on the characteristics of long beans are ready to harvest, the beans that have been somewhat contained (rounded) and have a minimum length of 20-30 cm. While that is still not yet ready for harvest usually flat-shaped and has a length of 5-10 cm.
In addition there is the technique how to pick its own, long-held end of the base bean using the thumb and forefinger and then gently picked by pressing the thumb, why should gently? turns in one stalk there are some beans that are still young and can be picked up for about 3 until 5 days later, that's why we have to gently when ready to reap the harvest, can see on picture below.
We planted long beans Sriwet type. Sriwet have a greenish tint and even a few strands of yellow was mixed purple in the nut, as shown below.
Of the many long bean crops there was one piece that could make my hair stand when I saw, in the form of green snakes coiled similar to head of the snake with eyes, curious look at this picture.
And finally at about 17:20 pm the day harvesting is completed (because there are lots are still not ready to be harvested today). Collected in one large sack, after that we immediately take it to the collectors of vegetables near the house.
Really lovely afternoon .....
