In the world of flowers, there is surprising vitality everywhere! Just a piece of grass can give you a sense of wildness in the forest. A vegetable garden can be the perfect addition to a home garden. Growing your own organic vegetables ensures that you are eating healthy produce and saves you the expense of buying organic produce at high prices at the grocery store. When you start thinking about how to grow vegetables, the first thing you should pay attention to is the seeds and the location of the vegetables: 1. Choose a sunny spot in the vegetable garden and start planting in early spring. You'll have to keep farming all summer long so you'll have a constant harvest of fresh, delicious vegetables. 2 Place the garden near the kitchen so it's easy to go out and pick some vegetables you need and come back, and you can tend to the garden through the window. The best time to pick tomatoes is when they turn red. 3 Soak the seeds so they germinate in season. Before seeds germinate, they need sufficient moisture, which is the same as being irrigated in spring rain. Once the seeds are full, the germ inside will begin to grow. 4 Cover your newly planted vegetables with a water-filled teepee to protect them from the cold. You can also buy cheap plastic sheeting with tubes attached to it, which will form a self-supporting wall around the seedlings when filled with water. Sunlight penetrates this bright wall and reaches the seedlings inside, while water heated by the sun keeps it warm at night. 5 Rather than direct sowing seeds initially, plant larger seedlings on a windowsill or purchase them from a nursery for rapid maturation, especially in colder climates. This method is useful for young vegetables such as beefsteak tomatoes and peppers, because they usually take a long time to ripen and must be ripened before frost, otherwise they will be delayed until winter. Selecting seedlings When selecting seedlings, look for those grown in large containers that have healthy green leaves and a strong structure. Check for strong, well-nurtured root systems. Avoid those that have been neglected, spindly, weak, or Seedlings that have grown too large. Please note that not every grown seedling will graft well. For cucumbers, squash, zucchini and squash, the best option is to sow directly or start from a carefully planted young seedling to maximize the potential for grafting. Reduce root entanglement. Plant slender vegetable seedlings deeper, down to the first set of leaves, leaving their sturdier parts open to growth. Seedlings started indoors or in a crowded greenhouse without full sunlight may develop spindly, weak stems that tend to fall over in the vegetable garden. But as long as they are grown from a single stem rather than a clump of leaves and are planted in well-drained soil, you can plant slender seedlings deeper down for more support. For seedlings with soft stems like tomatoes, horizontal planting is better than vertical planting. This absorbs more heat and air than deeper soil, thus promoting rapid growth of the roots and entire plant. Protection work After planting, place a 7.6 cm long cardboard tube around the seedlings. Push the cardboard tube down halfway into the ground to stop the caterpillar's underground attack. Once the seedlings have grown into plants, you can remove the cardboard circles. First When planting vegetables, you can tear off the top and bottom of a peat pot. Peat pots will rot when buried in the soil, so don't destroy them in the first year of planting as this may cause the plant's roots to become entangled. Even worse, if the edges of peat stick above the soil surface, it can dry out and rob water from surrounding soil and plant roots. But this problem can be easily solved by tearing off the top and bottom of the peat pot before planting. This helps prevent the plant's roots from drying out and allows the plant's roots to break free in the presence of the peat pot. Second, vertical planting saves space.
You can let the vines of kidney beans, cucumbers, watermelons, and squash climb up along a trellis or pergola instead of letting them spread at the ground level. Add height to your vegetable garden with a teepee topped with kidney bean and pea vines. This space-saving device works on the same principle as a pergola, but looks different. A conical tent needs to be set up with 6 to 8 1.8-meter-high bamboo poles, and then these bamboo poles are tied at the top. You can plant kidney beans, lima beans, or peas around each pole and they will wrap around and grow to the top of the pole. Third, use vegetable garden fertilizer as a side-fertilizer for some long-season crops like limitless tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers to enable them to bear fruit. After the first harvest, spread some fertilizer granules around the plants, bury them gently in the soil, and water them liberally. The added nutrients will encourage the plant to produce new flowers and subsequently fruit. Fourth, spread newspapers covered with straw between the rows of plants to remove weeds and retain moisture. Putting them together to work with each other is much more effective than using them alone. At the end of the growing season, newspapers and straw must be rolled into the soil using a rototiller and allowed to rot. No. 5 Plant watermelons and cucumbers in your compost pile. Throw the ripe fruits into your compost pile in the fall and the seeds will grow anywhere. Warm, moist, nutrient-rich compost seems to be very conducive to growing the best watermelon and cucumber vines. Sixth Use a warm layer of straw mulch to extend the fall harvest of crops such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower. While it may never become a fashion trend, straw does effectively retain heat. Place bales or piles of straw around the plant, leaving the south-facing side to receive warm sunlight. This allows these naturally frost-tolerant plants to remain in good condition through late fall and even into the winter in warmer climates.

However, my country's seed industry has entered the market since 2000 and is still in the primary stage of development. It is relatively weak in terms of variety innovation capabilities, corporate competitiveness and seed supply security capabilities, and it is difficult to adapt to the needs of modern agricultural development. The "Analysis Report on Market Operation and Investment Prospects of China's Vegetable Planting Industry from 2014 to 2018" points out that according to the "Opinions", by 2020, my country will form a new breeding mechanism with reasonable division of scientific research, integration of industry, academia and research, centralized resources, and efficient operation. Cultivate a number of breakthrough excellent varieties with significant application prospects and independent intellectual property rights, build a number of standardized, large-scale, intensive and mechanized advantageous seed production bases, and create a number of strong breeding capabilities, advanced production and processing technology, and a marketing network A modern crop seed industry group with sound roads and in-place technical services that integrates breeding, breeding and promotion, improves a seed management system with clear responsibilities, advanced means, and powerful supervision, significantly improves the independent research and development capabilities and coverage of excellent varieties, and ensures that major agricultural products such as grains Effective supply. Vegetables are irreplaceable non-staple foods in people's daily lives and are the main source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber necessary to maintain human health. Entering the 21st century, world vegetable consumption has grown at an average annual rate of more than 5%. Calculated based on this growth rate, the world's average annual increase in vegetable consumption is more than 40 million tons, and total consumption will reach 1.28 billion tons by 2015. Due to labor costs, vegetable production in developed countries continues to shrink, and production will decrease in the future. This provides a broader space for the development of vegetables in my country. Special planting method: using foam boxes to grow vegetables 1. The cost of using foam boxes to grow vegetables is very low. In some markets, foam boxes generally only cost 1-2 yuan, which is very cheap. So the cost of using foam boxes to grow vegetables is It's very cheap. 2. Using foam boxes to grow vegetables is very beneficial for placement, because foam boxes are very regular, and they are also very beautiful when placed in a three-dimensional manner, and they look good to people.
3. Compared with circular containers, this method of growing vegetables in foam boxes can make better use of the space on the balcony, because most balconies are square, so the space can be more fully utilized when placing foam boxes. 4. Using foam boxes is also very convenient when moving, but foam boxes do not have drainage holes, so when using foam boxes to grow vegetables, you need to leave drainage holes at the bottom. However, there are also disadvantages to using foam boxes for planting. Foam box planting is very easy to damage, so the force should be relatively light when using it. Moreover, the foam box will change color after a long time, so you have to wait until the foam box changes color. Pay attention to replacement. [1]
