How do balcony people grow red amaranth?
Amaranth is planted on the balcony. Generally, seeds are sown directly in spring (April-May), and seedlings are rarely transplanted. Amaranth grows for 30-60 days. You can choose a larger cultivation container, pay attention to leaving drainage holes, then level the soil surface and water it. After the seeds are evenly mixed with fine sand, they are spread on the soil surface, covered with 0.5 cm soil, slightly compacted, covered with plastic film at low temperature, and emerge in about 7 ~ 10 days. There is generally no need to water again during germination.

When two true leaves grow, the first 1 second thinning is carried out. Usually, larger plants are harvested, leaving slightly smaller seedlings with uniform size, and the first fertilization 1 time is carried out in conjunction with watering.

When 5 ~ 6 real leaves are grown, the second interval between plants is about 10 cm, and the second fertilization is watered. If the seedlings are dense, they can be interplanted 1 time, and then managed normally.
