China has been a big agricultural country since ancient times. People have had a passion for planting since ancient times and have a lot of technical experience in planting.
Vegetables can be grown wherever there is soil. Not only in rural fields, yards, and buildings, but also on balconies, vegetables can be grown.
In addition to some traditional In addition to planting methods, many farmers have also developed many alternative planting methods, such as the now popular hydroponic cultivation of vegetables.
But the method of growing vegetables I talked about today will definitely refresh your friends’ views, that is, growing vegetables in the cracks of brick walls.
This way of growing vegetables sounds unreliable, but in fact it is real.
A Chinese aunt had successfully grown vegetables in this way before, and she also brought this planting technology to Africa.
After I learned about this planting method, I felt that this aunt was really imaginative.
Vegetables can be grown even in the gaps of small walls without any large space.
Without further words, let me introduce it to my friends right away.
First, grow eggplants in the cracks of bricks
Others who grow eggplants must plan the land, make drainage ditches, and plant at appropriate distances.
But the omnipotent aunt used practical actions to tell us what it means to grow eggplants in the cracks of bricks.
We can also observe from the picture that the eggplant seedlings are planted directly in the cracks of the bricks.
Auntie planted the eggplants in the cracks of the bricks according to the appropriate planting density, and watered them one by one after planting.
After it grows new shoots, continue to add water to it.
Add some nitrogen fertilizer to the eggplant during its growth period. The root system of eggplant is very developed. The root system grows deep under the bricks and goes deep into the ground. In this case, the eggplant plant can also grow. He looks very strong.
And when the eggplants bloom and finally bear fruit, we will find that eggplants planted in the cracks of bricks can also grow into large ones.
Furthermore, eggplants grown inside the cracks of bricks have no problems with weeds, the ventilation is relatively good, and there are few pests and diseases.
It looks neat 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, you don’t have to worry about running out of vegetables.
Does this planting method impress your friends?
Second, growing vegetables in the cracks of the wall
Growing eggplants in the cracks of bricks is a piece of cake. Next, Auntie will show us what the real technology is.
Even the most advanced technology can only grow vegetables in water.
But have you ever seen Chinese cabbage growing in the cracks in the wall? So how to grow vegetables in the turning joint? Take Chinese cabbage as an example. July to August every year is the best time to harvest Chinese cabbage. At this time, stuff its seeds into the cracks of bricks, and then pour some water on them.
In a few days, you will find that the Chinese cabbage seeds planted in the cracks of the bricks have begun to germinate. There may be more seedlings growing out. At this time, some of the smaller cabbage seedlings must be pulled out. Fall off, leaving the stronger cabbage seedlings.
With the nourishment of sunlight and adequate management, Chinese cabbage planted on the wall can grow quickly.
When the Chinese cabbage is fully grown, it will be arranged neatly like soldiers. There will be more cabbage than can be eaten in a winter. It looks neat and pleasing to the eye.
From the picture We can also find that the cabbage grown in this way is also very large and plump. When you pull a cabbage with one hand, in addition to eating fresh vegetables grown by yourself, this feeling of satisfaction is also great. People in the city may have seen it. Everyone will be stunned,
In addition to cabbage, some other vegetables can also be grown in this way.
Don’t say that your yard is small, even a palm-sized yard can be planted by the aunt to produce an acre of land. If the building has open space, even if there is no soil, it will not be difficult for the hard-working aunt to grow cabbage. , the root system is shallow, and you can plant it with just a little soil. Look at the terrace planted by this aunt, which is so full of Chinese cabbage that you can’t even put your feet in. It’s really gratifying.
We all say that vegetables are not easy to grow, but in the hands of the aunt, it is really obedient.
Third, plant cactus in the cracks of the wall
Everyone may not be unfamiliar with this plant.
This plant has sharp thorns on its surface. Many people with yards will plant some at home. Many people will plant it in the ground or in flower pots, but this method has been Out of date.
Because the aunt showed us a cool trick, which is to plant cactus in the cracks of the wall.
The cactus planted in the cracks of the wall is also very beautiful when it grows, and it also acts as a natural anti-theft wall.
If a thief comes to the cactus cultivated in this way, in addition to retreating from the difficulties, you should admire the owner's imagination, right? Cactus is a lazy plant, so you don’t need to worry about it on the wall. It can grow luxuriantly if it depends on the sky. Moreover, the fat cactus can be cooked and eaten, and the cactus can bear fruit every year, just like a small one. Dragon fruit is equally delicious, and you can break off the leaves to graft crab claw orchids, which really kills three birds with one stone.
Four, grow flowers in wall cracks
In addition to the plants introduced above that can be planted in wall cracks, some flower plants can also be planted in wall cracks.
For example, some epiphytic herbaceous plants, or climbing flower plants.
They originally grow in this way on some rocks or trees in the wild. If we plant them on the wall, maybe they will grow even better, and if we plant them on the wall like this The top is also very beautiful.
