24 cm diameter of my pisang raja (banana) stump

This is taken in the evening of 16 April 2020. Before I start to chopped the stump down for the fourth time. The stump is 24 cm diameter. Quite thick.
Still left a little bit more to clean. Might take me 2 more time to finished it off. It is crucial to clean up the stump of harvested banana tree. As it helps to promote growth of the rest of its offspring. Also to keep the offspring healthy from pest attack.

Chopping down stump to my pisang raja (banana) tree

This is taken in the evening of 12 April 2020. Where I have manage to cut down till left almost 1 feet high of the stump to my pisang raja (banana) tree. After harvesting the fruits last 5 April 2020 [1].
It took me 3 days to get till this stage. With 2-3 days interval. As I need to be fit and focus enough for the chopping down process. Since I am using sharp machette and knife. Better safe than sorry.

The leaves to my germinated mulberry cuttings

This is taken in the morning of 9 April 2020. Where I saw leaves sprouted from the germinated mulberry cuttings. I do pruning last week. Then I immediately plant the cuttings in a container. This is kampung (village) type mulberry. For me, it is the most robust from all mulberry cuttings that I have tried to germinate.
Hopefully it will grow steady roots after 2 weeks time. Then I can replant it in permanent spot around my house compound.

My pretty cotton knit fabric with Transformer print

This is taken in the noon of 9 April 2020. Where I successfully retrieve it from poslaju office. The fabric type is cotton knit with Transformer print.
Was thinking to make a blouse out of it. I have custom made one with Batman printed cotton [1]. During this restriction movement order, I do think to make face mask from the material. But have to postpone and use my existing one. As I need to prioritize my work and tending after my plants & cats.
