Three reasons for turning an empty balcony into a small garden
The balcony has almost a piece of available space, both in rural areas and in buildings. It is often used to dry clothes and produce flowers, but once the flowerpot is full and the clothes are tanned, the space remains empty. Why don't we switch vegetables:
With a safe or a flower box and some horticultural soil, the balcony can be turned into a “small farm”。
028 twin-line “paint + practical” balcony vegetables
The eight types of vegetables below, with short growth cycles, a moderate crown size and a good color, are best suited to “turn the disc” in the hands of the balcony parties。
2. 1 pillows - “colour carpets” available for 15 days
There is a wide variety of raw vegetables, with green, purple, curly and bellow features. With a single crown of 15 cm or more, you can fill the whole flower pot with a living carpet。
2. 2 gasseeds — “fast pickles” at 10 cm
The oily on the supermarket shelf tends to be brain-brushed, while its own balcony can rise to the height of its waist。
2. 3 spinach - a 30-day ripe “vitamin bomb”
Spinach is rich in folic acid and iron and is best planted in the spring. At 15-30°c, it takes only 30 days from seedling to harvest。
2. 4 selenium — one cut and one long “landnut”
The root cut the penis, buried over 10 cm in the ground, and showed its head in seven days; the leaves were as long as 5 to 10 cm to harvest the first knife。
2. 5 tomatoes - “juice bomb” from spring to winter
20-30 cm flower pots, 40 cm distance to plant an infinite growth tomato. With a shelf, it can go all the way up the lantern。
2. 6 cucumbers — “crackers” that can be eaten for three weeks and stop at the end of autumn
Cucumber glitter, 40 cm interpolation stick. When the temperature is right, the first melon can be picked up in 25 days。
2. 7 silent fujimori - 40 casseroles of gusts
If you don't climb the vine, you can have 10 to 20 seedlings. Seeds grow in seven days and carry melons for two months。
2. 8 eggplants - the “high-yielding king” who strangulates the sprouts and concentrates his masters
The eggplant root is well developed and requires a large basin plus fat soil. When the first flower opens, the lower sprouts will be wiped out and lateral sprouts will stop, and a single one will have 10 to 20 eggplants。
Don't be fooled by the myth of little flowers
A number of bloggers on the internet have planted tomatoes and cucumbers into 10 cm small pots, and the video is very productive -- it's all part of a "crop-to-smoke" routine. If you really want fresh food on the balcony, the containers must be large: lettuce, oilseeds can barely be small, but they don't have enough cavities to fill it up once; if you want to eat at once, you have to pick the basin, pick the seed, select the land. Remember one sentence: "a little pot of view, a big pot of smell."
