How to grow vegetables on the balcony

As long as you install a flower stand or a large window box for placing flower pots next to the sunny window at home, you can grow vegetables! However, please pay special attention to the fact that the flower box or flowerpot should be at least 20 cm deep, and there should be drainage holes at the bottom of the pot.

When planting, you only need to mix the culture soil with organic fertilizer, put it in a flowerpot about eight times full, and then bury the vegetable seeds. Some vegetables are not easy to cultivate with seeds, so you can go to the flower market to select germinated seedlings for planting.

In addition to traditional vegetables, Europe, America and Japan are also popular in cultivating a kind of "mini vegetables" suitable for potted plants, such as cherry radish, mini carrot and mini tomato, as well as leafy vegetables such as Qingjiang vegetables, spinach, lettuce, Chinese cabbage and chrysanthemum. These vegetables grow fast and can be picked and eaten in two to four weeks.
