Hello ¨passionate¨ of these wonderful ¨AmazingNatureCommunity¨: Happy to join you in this third edition of the month; I really like this type of challenge because it allows me to learn about other people's experiences, and have the opportunity to share yours; I thank our friend @adalger for giving us the opportunity to participate every week in the ¨AmazingNatureContest¨:
Life is like a "path" of many turns, with curves and contra curves, which requires greater caution where we must slow down to avoid accidents, especially when the days are gray, and visibility is low, you never know what you will find later. Life is the same; More than a year ago we had a very different life, who would have thought that we would spend a year locked up in our homes;

These plants that you see here are known as ¨mandiocas¨, however, in other parts of the world it is known by other names such as ¨cassabas¨ or ¨yuca¨; It is a very ¨nutritive¨ food, it has several very healthy attributes for our body, it is very easy to plant, it adapts to any type of ¨soil¨ it is very resistant to high ¨temperatures¨ and to ¨drought¨; The "roots" are what people consume, while the "stem" and its "leaves" is a good food for animals; In some countries it is being used to build "biodegradable" bags and replace "plastic"; In my province it is a very commercial crop, with the "starch" that it contains, "flour" is made and this allows many edible products to be made
The ¨sandia¨ is another plant that adapts very well in this part of the world, it is very easy to sow, the good thing is that you can make them from the ¨seed¨ of the same fruit it consumes

You just have to let it dry, and following a few simple steps you will obtain this exquisite fruit; In addition to being delicious, it provides many benefits to our body, as its composition is practically "water", it is ideal for areas like this where "heat" predominates. People who work in the field consume it, in addition to a delicious dessert, to combat the "Dehydration"; Here we use them to make different types of food, such as jam, juices and different drinks; Just a recommendation when sowing, the "irrigation" is very important, your "soil" must be permanently "humid"
Sowing the ¨morrones¨ plant is extremely easy, it is sown from the ¨seeds¨ of the fruits that you buy at the ¨green shop¨; The good thing about this plant is that it adapts to your possibilities, it does not require much space, which is ideal for sowing in the garden, or in a pot and having it in a window or on the balcony; You just need the "water" to "drain" very well; The ¨tierra¨ ¨mix¨ is very easy to do, you only need ¨black earth¨, ¨leaves¨ and ¨dried sticks¨ ¨ cow manure¨ or ¨horse¨, as you can read, you don't have to spend ¨ money in "fertilizer" costs that do so much damage to the land and its fruits; It has many benefits for our body, which makes it a very healthy vegetable
I acquired my ¨love¨ and ¨knowledge¨ for agriculture before I started walking, my parents took me to the garden as a baby, I learned all the ¨procedures¨ from them since ¨treatment¨ of the ¨floor¨, even ¨recipes¨ to use in the ¨kitchen¨ These photographs were taken with a ¨Samsung¨ 12.2 ¨Mega¨ ¨pixels¨ camera
