What is balcony growing? How?

Balcony planting pays attention to a healthy life, and balcony planting generally does not use pesticides and chemical fertilizers, but uses the rice water, fruit peel, kitchen residues and other materials commonly used in their daily life to make organic fertilizers for vegetables, so that we eat a healthy and pollution-free food.

The south-facing balcony is full of sunshine and good ventilation, making it the ideal balcony for growing vegetables. Almost all vegetables grow best in full sunshine, so general vegetables can be grown on south-facing balconies all year round, such as cucumbers, bitter gourds, tomatoes, beans, goldenrod, apricots, mustard greens, zucchini, green peppers, lettuce, leeks, etc. In addition, aquatic vegetables such as lotus root, water chestnut and water chestnut are also suitable for planting on south-facing balconies.

In winter, most of the south-facing balconies can be exposed to direct sunlight, and simple insulation equipment can also create a good environment for the production of vegetables in winter.

The east-facing and west-facing balconies are half-sunshine, suitable for planting light-loving and shade-tolerant vegetables, such as onions, oily lettuce, small rape, leeks, loofahs, coriander, radish, etc. However, the temperature of the west-facing balcony is higher in the summer when the west is sunburned, so that some vegetables produce daily burning, the light ones fall leaves, and the heavy ones die, so it is best to plant vegetables with vines and high temperature resistance in the corner of the balcony. During the summer months, you will also have to try to defend yourself against the glare and radiant light reflected from the back floors.

The north-facing balcony has little to no sunlight throughout the day and a minimal selection of vegetables. Shade-tolerant vegetables should be selected for planting, such as lettuce, leeks, asparagus, toon, dandelion water spinach, fungus, etc. During the summer months, you will also have to try to defend yourself against the glare and radiant light reflected from the back floors.

1. Sufficient light.

This is very important, vegetables and other green plants are the same, you need to have enough light, if the light on the balcony is not enough, then no matter how hard you work in the future, the vegetables will not grow strong, and it is easy to grow.

So as long as we have enough sunlight on our balcony, we can grow general vegetables, or if we have a terrace at home and a roof terrace, it is even better, and the direct light is very abundant, and we can grow any vegetables we want. Vegetables grow stronger and won't grow easily.

2. The potting soil is fertile.

Before planting vegetables, the soil must be fertile and contain sufficient nutrients, so that the vegetables can grow better, grow stronger, and will not be so thin, leafy vegetables can grow fat and green, and the flowering and fruiting vegetables can also be harvested more, and the soil can add more peat humus, and organic fertilizer after fermentation.

Only by constantly fertilizing, we can raise potted vegetables can grow more vigorously, in order to have a good harvest, when fertilizing, mainly organic fertilizer, thin fertilizer diligent, you can use sheep manure or fermented chicken manure, or some other fertilizer, homemade organic fertilizer liquid is also good.

After fully fermenting and then watering with water, the vegetables will grow very happily and grow faster. Like potted tomatoes, potted cucumbers, and potted peppers, they all need to be fertilized frequently, because they take a long time to flower and bear fruit, so they need to be fertilized frequently to maintain their growth.

In addition, the flower pot for planting vegetables can not be selected too small, it is better if there is a flower pond, it is also good to grow vegetables in the flower box, and the foam box can also grow vegetables, in short, it is also very good to grow vegetables in long pots, the diameter of the flower pot is large, the volume is large, and the vegetables that can be planted are more vigorous, and the vegetables that can be planted are more.

In addition, even when planting vegetables on the balcony in summer, you need to supplement nutrients, if the temperature is particularly high, you can stop fertilizing, but when the temperature is less than 30 degrees, you still need to supplement nutrients.

3. Plant the right vegetables in the right season.

In spring and summer, plant heat-loving vegetables, such as cucumbers, peppers, pumpkins, loofahs, tomatoes, cabbage, etc., and in autumn and winter, plant some vegetables that like cold climates, such as lettuce, celery, coriander, spinach, oily lettuce, Shanghai greens, shallots, garlic, radishes, etc.

There are many vegetables that can be planted on the balcony, and you can also grow some vegetables that can be raised in all seasons, such as lettuce, rape, leeks and so on. Growing vegetables on the balcony is very simple, as long as you try to plant a few pots, you will become more and more experienced, the better you raise, and the harvest will gradually increase.

Balcony planting is now urban people at home on the balcony on the flower pots and other containers, plant some daily vegetables, such as coriander, chives, leeks, peppers, cherry tomatoes, occasionally strawberries, etc., because now the Chinese people are more and more worried about food safety, a little richer to go to the suburbs to contract a piece of land to hire people to plant, have time and energy but limited economy in their own balcony with flower pots, since self-cultivation, and can be both ornamental and edible, although the proportion of daily vegetables is not very large, But it is indeed a spiritual treat.

If you want to grow vegetables on the balcony, you must first have pots, the size is determined according to the root system of the plant, and the soil, it is best to use humus soil on the surface of the forest (that is, the kind of soft soil with rotten leaves) or directly buy culture soil (also called nutrient soil, peaty soil) The most famous grass soil in the northeast, and then it is fertilizer, and now families are required to grow vegetables healthily, so most of them use organic fertilizer (that is, non-chemical fertilizer, such as chicken manure that has been fermented and sterilized, etc.) and seeds, With this, you can grow your own at home, and the strawberries I grow seem to have small buds, hehe.

It's balcony gardening. Use foam boxes, flower pots, old cooking oil drums and other containers, the same as growing flowers. To buy seeds and simple tools, you can also use idle supplies in the kitchen at home, shovels and forks (often used to loosen the soil for vegetables), prepare soil and large-mouth bottles to facilitate the storage of kitchen waste, and make fertilizer such as soybean milk residue and waste milk from vegetable leaves and peels to be used again when the fertilizer is odorless, and the fertilizer can only be used after dilution.

Buy seeds and grow vegetables that are simple and easy to grow. Cherry tomatoes, lettuce, leeks, are easy to plant, fertilization, humidity and other problems slowly searched, there are many on the Internet.

You can also buy green onions, spinach, coriander and celery with roots first, and bury the heart part directly in the soil and grow quickly.
