Hello everyone. How are you today? I hope all is well with you and your family. In this post, I will take you go to my home garden again. This time I didn't focus on the vegetables and fruits in my garden. But it is a kind of plant in the garden, my family and I plan to make it a cash crop for our family in the future. This plant is betel nut. In the past, old people in Thailand liked to chew betel nut. But now, we rarely see old people chewing betel nut like in the past. And there are still some ethnic groups that chew betel nut. And fruit of the betel nut, besides used chewed, it is also used in some rituals in the northern where I live and other regions of the country.
Examples using fruit of betel nuts and other things in some rituals in the northern of the country. They are old photos that I took years ago. And I wrote about these rituals and used these photos in posts several years ago.
Every year even though there were only two betel nut plants in oue home garden, the wife's mother would pick the betel nut fruits and sell them to the traders. In the rainy season 1-2 months ago, So I plan to plant more betel nuts in the garden. And I use the fruits of the betel nuts to planted them. Now we have about 15 small betel nut seedlings in our garden. Most of them are about 8 - 9 centimeters tall. And there are still some of its fruits that have not yet sprouted too.
My family and I plan that if they grow up, we will move these betel nut plants to our longan orchard (about 600 meters from our home).
These are the stories and photos I want to share for this post. Invite everyone to see and enjoy my stories and photos. Please forgive any errors/mistakes. Have a great day. See you next time. Thank you for your support and visiting my post. Bye 🤗
