Farms: Home Garden- Recommendations

in #farms6 years ago (edited)

A famous Chinese proverb defends that to have a full life experience it is necessary to write a book, have a child and plant a tree. Living in an apartment is no longer an excuse to stop having a garden.

The concept is far from growing a tree, but with the current limitations of space, the solution is ideal. In the apartments, it is possible to grow small vegetables and herbs in the window boxes or even in pots on the balcony.

If you have a space of 25 centimeters deep in an area with a direct direct or indirect impact, you can already plant it. Having a garden at home is the most interesting way to have contact with nature. Vegetables are small, easy to care for and you consume what you planted.

It is not vital that the sun falls directly on the plant, but sunlight must be direct, that is, if it passes through the window, it no longer works. In addition, it is necessary that the seedlings are in a place with air circulation. It is not wind, because many of them are sensitive and can not stand. Is the same.

Way to do


To prepare the garden space, it is not enough to play the soil and the seeds. It is necessary to make a mixture with 40% topsoil, 30% "normal" soil and 30% construction sand. This allows the earth to be looser.


Conclusion: the roots develop more fully and the water flows better. Place the components in the glass or in the planter, mix everything and ready, time to plant. Place the seedlings 10 centimeters apart and fasten them well to the ground, giving small caps on the surface.

The orchard should water daily, preferably in the morning. Be careful not to soak the soil. The secret is to place your hand on the surface, she must remain moist without becoming a "pope". If you opt for an organic garden, only organic fertilizer enters the glass. But fertilization is recommended only one year after sowing when it is also interesting to add earthworm humus to the soil.

So that the water does not get stuck inside the glass, waterproof the surface of it and place a layer of coarse sand under the earth mixture, followed by brita and red stones.

Important detail: the planter or the glass has to have holes in the bottom so that the water drains. In it, place a plate with sand, to absorb water and avoid mosquito breeding sites, such as dengue.

At home

To make a garden at home, the rules are the same as those of an apartment: window planter or glasses on the balcony. Or, better yet, put the garden in the garden. To do this, it is necessary to separate the ornamental plants from the vegetables. But vegetables can not stay at garden level. They must be separated from the rest of the plants by wooden logs or bamboo, because they have to stay at a higher level.

To do this, you have to do a kind of "walk" with the mixture of soil, sand and topsoil. This serves so that the water runs off without problems and so that the roots have room to grow. This surface should have about 25 centimeters and can be placed on the ground of the garden itself.

It is interesting that the orchard receives as much light as possible. The ease of reaching it must also be considered. And make "steps" so that the older ones do not steal the sun from the minors. To look beautiful, invest in species such as onions or a mix of green lettuce and purple lettuce.
