golden photos 

Hi guys! I hope you are all doing fine. I come back again with some plant tips. This time, I want to share with you some tips on how to make your golden photos grow faster.
It has almost  been a year since I bought my beautiful golden photos. I am so glad that so far, this plant never got pests or suffered during the wintertime. So, let's get to the tips.

Cut your Golden Photos

Don't be afraid to cut your golden photos. The cuts that you make will stimulate your photos to grow faster. It can also make your photos even bushier.
Please cut your photos below the root nodes so that you can propagate them instead of throwing the cuttings away. For more infos about plant propagation, you can click here. You will also learn how to cut plants properly.
I made cuttings on several occasions. Now, the mother plant grows fast and beautifully. The baby plants grow quite fast as well. See the pictures!

Give them Fertilizer

liquid fertilizers 









It's enough if you give your photos some fertilizer during spring and summer. Fertilize your photos once a week. You can use self-mixed fertilizer as well as premixed liquid fertilizer. Anyway, I use general liquid fertilizer for green plants. Usually, you mix it with 1L water before you water your plants. These extra nutrients will make your photos happier and grow faster.


Water them right

watering tools 

We come back again to watering. I never get bored talking about watering. Don't water your photos too often. It could make their root rot. Water your photos once a week during spring and summer. Before the next watering, I sometimes just check the leaves. When they feel fresh. I don't water them, even it has already been more than a week since the last time.
It's the same rule for all your plants. By the way, you can read here about common plant care mistakes.

Enough Light













This plant generally can grow with little light. But if you want to make them grow faster, place them near a window so that they can enjoy the sunlight, but not all day long. West-facing windows are ideal because because they get sun in the evening or east windows which get sunlight in the morning. The plant will have a beautiful pattern on their leaves. However, a north-facing window can get morning sunlight during the summer. 
My apartment only has south and north-facing windows, so, I placed my golden photos near the north window. So far, it works well. You shouldn't place your photos in a south-facing window. There is a lot of sunlight during the day, the plant might get sunburnt, so at least put them to the side.

Have fun with the Tempe recipe. I hope you enjoy the dish ;) Happy cooking!

Weekly Market

the elder lady was very nice, I took the picture in 2016 When I was in my hometown, my family and I would often visit the weekly market nearby, just a 10-minute walk away. As a kid, the excitement of going there, regardless of whether I bought anything, always filled me with joy. The journey to the market was particularly enjoyable, especially the path through the lush green rice fields. Occasionally, I'd spot plants being devoured by numerous caterpillars, a sight I had to avoid due to my fear of them. the view to the traditional market near me Once we passed the green rice fields, the entrance to the market would come into view. Numerous vendors lined the market, offering a variety of goods, fresh produce from local farmers, fashion items, music, and more. During my visits, I'd often indulge in fresh juice or traditional Indonesian sweets. Sometimes, I'd run into friends or family unexpectedly, and we'd head back home together. If I accompanied my mom, we'd often

A Letter to Widji Thukul

This post was first published in Indonesian on January 30th, 2019, click  here !  Widji …  You have made a huge impact! Your words will never ever be forgotten. Your spirit will live on in the lives of many Indonesians that want change. Two weeks ago, on that night, my friends and I had the opportunity to read out your poems and watch your movie, ‘’Istirahatlah Kata-Kata’’ (Solo, Solitude) based on you and your sojourn where it indeed did not depict any violence.  Nevertheless, the words you expressed in your poems moved me to tears. When the movie was nearly finished, although, tears were running down my face, I refused to go to the bathroom because immediately my friends and I were about to read out your poems to many people after the movie ended. That’s why I didn’t want to wipe the mascara on my eyelashes. I would probably look like a black-eyed ghost if I wipe my eyes. I’m indeed foolish at times. Finally, we went to front and prepared ourselves to read your
