I. Food suitable for home planting
At the beginning of the planting process, ms. @dean felt that she could not afford to challenge herself too much, so she made an online campaign to select three vegetables that could be grown easily without having to buy seeds。
Onion
Leave the leftover onions and put one in the earth, and we'll be free
Seeds: each onions are left behind
Environment: smaller planting basins + nutrient soil
Method: plugting onions into the soil
Time: 8-10 days
Temperature: 15-25°c
Caution: cutting off the length of the crop with a scissors, without moving the onion, can grow over and over again。
Tomatoes
I tried to use tomato slices as fertilizer, but i didn't think tomato sprouts
Seeds: sliced tomatoes
Environment: deeper planting basins + nutrient land
(a) method: the ground soil is solid, the tomato tablets are covered by the top layer of the soil (not buried in the soil) and a small amount of water is spilled
Time: 4-6 months
Temperature: 20-30°c
Caution: with proper removal of the top of the heart, the limitless size of the tomato can reach 3 m or higher, and of course you have enough space in the house, or you can leave it free to grow, and you can decorate。
Pepper
By allocating pepper seed, you can own a chili garden
Seeds: fresh peppers cut open seeds and require two to three days of sunbath
(a) environment: a flower pot of the size of a paper cup + soil (wetting)
Method: soil basins, bottom pressure solid, hand-stamping of a hole in the soil, placement of dried pepper seeds (3-5), light hand-stamping of marginal soil into a hole, soil moistification, recommended daily watering with spray bottles
Time: 6-8 months
Temperature: 25-33°c
Caution: paprika is a more suitable plant for indoor cultivation and, because it is cold and damp, attention is paid to temperature control. It's worth mentioning that chili leaves are a pretty sightseeing plant。
It's not hard to grow vegetables at home! If you're gonna try and keep looking, i'll show you how to set up a balcony where you can grow vegetables
Ii. Watch the environment and grow the vegetables
On the balcony, you grow vegetables, you see the conditions at home. If you just sort the environment, it's:
1. The yard
2. The balcony
3. The balcony
The conditions described above can be summarized as follows:
The easier the drain, the better
The more light the better
The more air flows, the better

Can only the balcony grow
Of course the answer is yes
Even your family has 1 m2 of space to grow
It is noteworthy that for plants, the “sun”, “air”, “water” conditions required for their growth are distinct from those of humans. So, to become a vegetable garden on the balcony, you need to think。
At the same time, there are two types of balcony:
One's a closed balcony
One is an open balcony
The difference between the two is that closing the balcony requires more equipment:
1 light belt
To compensate for the lack of light and prevent plant atrophy
2 ventilation facilities
To compensate for the lack of air circulation and to prevent plants from dying
3 pest warning
The wet environment attracts mosquitoes or seals, you know
In short, the difficulty of planting vegetables in closed balconyes, which are equivalent to home-based “street vegetable farming centres”, has also been elevated。
If you're just trying to be decorative, decorative, that's fine. You can't do that
Don't seal the balcony
Whatever the balcony, we have to prepare for the renovation as follows:
1 typhoon water
South is good (which is actually the best side of the ventilation) and it's good for vegetables all day long。
Daylight in the south-east is only half a day, but it is warm and does not break vegetables。
The west is mainly too tan and the potential for tanned vegetables is high, so care is taken to avoid light treatment。
There is little sunlight in the north for a day, and if you choose this position, it is better to plant it indoors and save everything with a led light。
2. Waterproof drainage
Some families are not drained from the balcony and are therefore not waterproof, and if they want to grow, the waterproofing must be more thin
Add a rigid layer of water protection to areas prone to leaks, such as balcony leaks, tubing roots, angular angles, etc. There must be a closed-water test, before the garden is planted, and the neighbours downstairs are forced to tear it down。
Of particular note here is the relationship between the balcony and the living room, which, although waterproof, does not exist, so as to ensure that there is a 2-3 cm gap between the balcony and the living room to prevent the flow of water into the living room。
3 corrupt weight
While it is not usually the case that family vegetables are grown in such a way that the balcony of your house is crushed, the stress of the tiles is not certain, so when materials are selected, the hard, corrosive bricks are chosen。

4 climate regulation
The northern part is dominated by anti-frozen hazards (especially during the days of unheating) and the southern part by wind and flooding (typhoon), both of which are enormous tests。
Remember to buy environmental thermometers and observe the living environment of plants。
Give you a temperature reference
The most appropriate temperature for fruit and vegetable plants is 22-25°c during the day and 15-18°c at night; the relative lower temperature requirements for leaves and vegetables are above 20°c during the day and above 13°c at night
But different plants require different things. To build a vegetable garden, you have to be careful to control temperature
Iii. Efficient use of the balcony
We have very limited space for ordinary people, usually in the range of 2. 5-5m2
It is not realistic to imagine that we would dig a pit and throw seeds directly on the balcony floor。

Moreover, it is not possible to classify the seedlings that are grown, and the garden is not sufficiently sophisticated. An attempt could be made to collect the flower pots using articles such as shelf, leash, etc。
If you want to grow, don't hit the counter
If you want to grow, you don't have to put in a custom cupboard。
Attempts can be made to purchase stainless steel racks that are empty and used in conjunction with planting cabinets. Ensuring that excess water is released from the bottom does not lead to boredom。
It would be better to have a rectangle of the planting cabinets so that they can be cleaned up more easily。
2. Make good use of the railing position
Some light-weight plants can try to hang on bars, and some say they're prone to high-altitude crashes, like this
The possibility of high-altitude crashes can be significantly reduced by trying to put plants inside and adding glass barriers to the bottom of the fence。
However, it was suggested that plants should be moved from the balcony to the interior in the event of a windy weather, so that they would not be left alone。
3. Adhering to the principle of the two sides of the middle
It is well known that the balcony is a three-sided space, with the main light ventilation coming from the long side of the rectangular balcony。
When the garden is set on the balcony, the centre seat should be kept away from the shelf, leaving a space for light。

Plants are placed around fences at the bottom of bars, or on the arm of bars, as far as possible, otherwise they affect indoor light and ventilation。

Then the food will grow, and people will not be comfortable。
Iv. Home gardening is a living attitude
I'm sure it's not easy to plant food at home
Home-based farmers had to live off, and the mess was only the beginning, and the biggest challenge was to care for plants that could not be moved every day。
I didn't lie to you when i was in school
If you've seen so much, and you haven't turned your back, you'll have chosen your place at home
In fact, home-grown vegetables are an attitude that pursues the "pastoral song" of life in a busy city, hoping that every rabbit who lives with his heart will eat the fruit and vegetables he planted himself
