Vegetables can be grown anywhere with soil, not only in rural fields, yards and buildings, but also on balconies.
In addition to some traditional planting methods, many farmers have developed many alternative planting methods, such as hydroponics, which is popular now.
But the way I'm talking about growing vegetables today will definitely refresh my friends' three views, that is, growing vegetables in cracks in brick walls.
This way of growing vegetables sounds unreliable, but it's true.
Before, an aunt from China successfully planted vegetables in this way, and she also brought this planting technique to Africa.
And when I learned about this planting method, I also felt that this aunt was simply open-minded.
Vegetables can grow without any big space, even if it is only in the cracks of small walls.
Not much to say, I'll take my friends to know right away.
First, plant eggplant between bricks.
When others grow eggplant, they should plan the land well, drain it well and plant it at a suitable distance.
But the omnipotent aunt told us with practical actions what it means to grow eggplant in the cracks of bricks.
We can also observe from the picture that those eggplant seedlings are planted directly in the cracks of bricks.
Aunt planted eggplant in the cracks of bricks according to the appropriate planting density, and watered it one by one after planting.
Wait until it grows new buds and continue to replenish water.
Add some nitrogen fertilizer during the eggplant growing period. Eggplant has a well-developed root system, which grows under bricks and goes deep into the ground. In this case, eggplant plants can also grow strong.
And when the eggplant blooms and finally bears fruit, we will find that the eggplant planted in the cracks of bricks can also grow.
Moreover, the eggplant planted in the brick seam has no weed problem, good ventilation and less pests and diseases.
It looks neat, clean and tidy, and does not delay walking. The aunt who invented this planting method is really awesome. Even if there is no soil at home, don't worry about not having food.
Does this planting method make the friends shine?
Second, grow vegetables in the cracks in the wall
It is a piece of cake to grow eggplant in the cracks of bricks, and then my aunt will show us what the real technology is.
Even the most advanced technology can only hydroponic vegetables.
But have friends ever seen Chinese cabbage growing in the cracks in the wall? Then how to grow vegetables in the turn seam? Take Chinese cabbage as an example. July-August is the best time to summarize Chinese cabbage every year. At this time, put its seeds in the gap of the brick, and then pour some water on it.
In a few days, you will find that the seeds of Chinese cabbage planted in the cracks of bricks have begun to sprout, and there may be more seedlings. At this time, some smaller Chinese cabbage seedlings will be pulled out, leaving the stronger ones.
With plenty of sunshine and proper management, Chinese cabbage planted on the wall can also grow rapidly.
When the Chinese cabbage grows up completely, it will be arranged neatly like a private soldier. Cabbages that can't be eaten all winter will look neat and pleasing to the eye.
From the picture, we can also find that the cabbage grown in this way is also very big and full. Pulling a cabbage in one hand, in addition to eating fresh vegetables grown by yourself, this kind of satisfaction is also overwhelming. It is estimated that people in the city will be dumbfounded.
Besides Chinese cabbage, other vegetables can also be grown in this way.
Don't say your yard is small, it's only the size of a palm, and my aunt planted an acre of land. If there is open space in the building, even if there is no soil, it is difficult to resist the hardworking aunt. Cabbage has a shallow root system, so you can grow it by moving some soil. Look at the terraced fields planted by this aunt. They are all Chinese cabbages, and your feet can't be inserted. It's really gratifying.
We all say vegetables are hard to grow. In aunt's hands, that is really obedient.
Third, plant cactus in the cracks in the wall.
Cactus, a plant, is no stranger to everyone.
This plant has spikes on its surface, and many people with yards will plant some at home. Many people will plant it in the ground or in flowerpots, but this method is out of date.
Because my aunt showed us a coquettish operation, that is, planting cactus in the crack of the wall.
The cactus planted in the cracks in the wall looks good and is also a natural anti-theft wall.
Cactus cultivated by this planting method should not only give up, but also admire the brain hole of the host family if thieves come? Cactus is a lazy plant, so you don't have to worry about it hanging on the wall. It depends on the weather to grow luxuriantly. Moreover, the big cactus can be cooked and eaten, and it can bear fruit every year, which is as delicious as the small pitaya, and its leaves can be broken off and grafted with crab claw orchid. It's killing three birds with one stone.
Fourth, plant flowers in the cracks in the wall.
In addition to the plants described above, you can also plant some flower plants in the cracks in the wall.
For example, some epiphytic herbs or climbing vines.
They are attached to some stones or trees in the wild in this way. If we plant it on the wall, it may grow better and grow beautifully on the wall.
