INTRODUCTION
In the realm of hands-on learning, our field practicum experience provided us a
unique opportunity to dive deep into the world of horticulture, where every interaction with
the soil and each delicate touch of a plant carried immense significance. This narrative
report chronicles our immersive journey during the field practicum, where we had the
privilege of cleaning and planting plants, unveiling the hidden wonders and challenges that
lie within the nurturing process of botanical life.
Throughout this report, we will share our reflections, insights, and personal growth
gained through the experience of cleaning and planting plants. It was a journey of discovery,
as we learned to navigate the intricate balance of providing care and understanding the
individual needs of each plant species.
The report not only documents the practical tasks undertaken but also delves into the
underlying principles, techniques, and variety understanding that guided our actions. From
understanding the importance of soil preparation to exploring the art of transplanting and
ensuring proper nutrition, we delved into the complexities of nurturing plants and maintaining
their health.
Within these pages, you will find vivid descriptions of the environments where we
worked, the challenges we encountered, and the strategies employed to overcome them.
From clearing debris and removing weeds to meticulously arranging and planting seedlings,
every step in the process demanded patience, precision, and an intimate connection with the
natural world.
Moreover, this narrative report captures the profound impact of the field practicum on
our personal and professional growth. As we witnessed the growth and transformation of the
09983749513
plants we cared for, we all
experienced a parallel journey of self-discovery and skill development. The field practicum
honed my observation skills, reinforced my attention to detail, and instilled a deep sense of
responsibility in the realm of horticulture.
By sharing our narrative of cleaning and planting plants, we aim to inspire others to
recognize the beauty and importance of botanical care. We hope to emphasize the symbiotic
relationship between humans and nature, where the act of nurturing plants not only enriches
the environment but also nurtures our own well-being.
Join us as we unveil the fascinating world of cleaning and planting plants during our
field practicum, unraveling the intricacies, challenges, and rewards that accompanied each
step. Together, let us celebrate the power of hands-on learning, where the simple act of
planting a seed holds the potential to cultivate both a thriving garden and a profound
connection to the natural environment.

As we gathered in the garden at school, excitement filled the air. It was our first day
of clearing the area and transforming it into a vibrant space for plants and nature to thrive.
With gloves on our hands and determination in our hearts, we set out to tackle the
overgrown wilderness that lay before us. The garden had been neglected for months, and
09983749513
weeds had taken over every inch
of the soil. But we saw beyond the tangled mess. We saw the potential, the possibility of
creating something beautiful and inviting. Armed with shovels, rakes, and a vision, we began
our task.
As we dug into the soil, sweat trickling down our brows, we discovered hidden
treasures beneath the invasive weeds. The soil was rich and fertile, promising a bountiful
future. We cleared away the debris, removing weeds and rocks, making space for new life to
take root. Amidst our work, we huddled together, discussing our plans. We wanted to choose
plants that would thrive in this specific area, taking into account the sunlight, and soil
composition. We researched different plants, considering their colors, sizes, and seasonal
blooms. Our goal was to create a garden that would be ever-changing and alive throughout
the year.
Days turned into weeks, and we worked tirelessly, removing every last week,
preparing the soil, and planting our chosen vegetation. It was a labor of love, a shared effort
that brought us closer together. We laughed and chatted, swapping stories and tips as we
dug and planted.

Excitement buzzed through the air as we gathered in the garden once again, ready to
take the next step in our gardening journey. The previous day's hard work had paid off, and
now the soil lay freshly turned and waiting to embrace the seeds that would bring life to this
revitalized space.
09983749513
With gardening tools in hand, we
organized plots in which to sow our seeds. We measured and marked the boundaries,
carefully ensuring that each section would receive the appropriate amount of sunlight and
space for growth. Together, we worked in harmony, like a well-choreographed dance,
preparing the soil for its precious cargo.
As we pulverized the soil, breaking up clumps and removing any lingering debris, a
sense of anticipation filled our hearts. We knew that each seed we planted held the potential
to become a flourishing plant, a testament to our hard work and dedication.
April 20-21, 2023
The next day dawned with renewed enthusiasm as we returned to the garden, eager
to continue our journey of nurturing the soil and creating the optimal conditions for our plants
09983749513
to thrive. Our next task was to
enrich the soil with organic matter, providing the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
With sack filled with rich, dark manure, we spread it evenly across the plots we had
meticulously prepared. The earthy scent permeated the air as we worked together, turning
the soil and blending the manure in, ensuring that it was thoroughly mixed with the earth.
As we worked, we could feel the transformation taking place beneath our hands. The
soil, once devoid of nutrients, came alive with vitality. The manure provided essential organic
matter, replenishing the soil's fertility. It was a testament to our commitment to sustainable
and eco-friendly gardening practices. With each turn of the soil, we could envision the
beneficial effects the manure would have on our plants. It would supply vital nutrients such
as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, bolstering their growth and enhancing their
resilience. We knew that by fortifying the soil, we were laying the foundation for a thriving
garden.

A two days’ work with my team.
With the soil enriched and the promise of growth in the air, we eagerly began the process of
planting our chosen watermelon seeds. Watermelon, with its juicy sweetness and refreshing
taste, was a delightful addition to our garden. In the designated plot, we carefully created
small mounds of soil, providing the watermelon seeds with a favorable environment to thrive.
Each mound was spaced appropriately, allowing ample room for the vines to spread and the
fruits to develop.
With gentle hands, we pressed the watermelon seeds into the mounds, ensuring they
were buried at the optimal depth. We knew that watermelon seeds needed warmth and
moisture to germinate successfully, so we covered them lightly with soil and watered the
area gently.
As the days passed, we maintained a watchful eye on our watermelon plot. We
continued to water the seeds regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not overly
saturated.
The sun's warmth, combined with the nutrients from the enriched soil, created the
ideal conditions for the seeds to sprout. And then, with anticipation building, we saw it—a
tiny green shoot emerging from the soil. The first sign of our watermelon plant's growth
brought smiles to our faces and a sense of accomplishment to our hearts. We knew that this
was just the beginning of a remarkable journey.

To protect our beloved plants
from potential threats. My team decided to build a fence. The fence repair was essential to
safeguard the growing watermelon vines and ensure their undisturbed progress.
We gathered the necessary tools and materials, ready to tackle the task at hand.
With diligence and teamwork, we began mending the fence, reinforcing weak areas and
securing any loose sections. We ensured that the fence was sturdy enough to withstand
external pressures and keep unwanted visitors at bay. As we worked on the fence, we
discussed additional protective measures to shield the watermelon plants. We devised a
plan to install netting above the vines, preventing birds and other creatures from feasting on
the ripening fruits. The netting would provide a barrier, allowing the watermelons to mature
undisturbed until they were ready for harvest. With precision and care, we attached the
netting to sturdy posts, creating a protective canopy over the watermelon plants. We made
sure that it was secured tightly, ensuring there were no gaps for potential invaders to slip
through.

As the days passed, we
observed the watermelon vines flourishing within their protected enclosure. Our team can’t
wait for the harvest season. That sounds like a productive day! It's great to hear that we
finished fixing the fence. Visiting the watermelon and taking care of it is also an important
task. Every time we visit our plant we watered it because, we believed that watering the
plants regularly ensures they receive enough moisture to grow properly.
