Dear my friends
I usually share portraits of wild flowers that grow in the forests of Aceh, for today I will share some portraits of vegetable plants that I cultivate for family consumption, I'm sure some of you are familiar with this plant, especially those of you who live in Asian countries. I say that because this plant is very popular with people living in Asian countries and especially the people of Indonesia.
some time ago this vegetable had reached an all-time high price of $1.2 per kilogram, it was caused by a notification from the health department which stated that this vegetable plant was very beneficial for nursing mothers, so in an instant this vegetable had a significant demand and made the price soar tall, do you know the name of this plant??
Yeah,, this is a long bean (Vigna unguiculata Sesquipedalis group) is one of the popular vegetable crops in Southeast Asian and East Asian cuisine. The pods are cooked as a vegetable or eaten raw as a salad. It grows by climbing or twisting. The part that is used as vegetables or fresh vegetables is fruit (pods) that are still young and the fibers are still soft. These long beans are easy to find in the hot regions of Asia. The leaves are called lavender and can also be processed into vegetables. How to plant long bean plants is to plant directly by inserting 2-3 seeds into a hole as deep as 1-2 cm then backfill with soil, flowering at the age of 30 days and starting to harvest at 45 days.
