1, container selection skills: materials, ceramics, and wooden containers drain faster than plastics and need more watering. Plastic is light and easily blown down by the wind. Don't put it by the window. Size, the container for growing vegetables should be bigger than smaller. After all, plants will grow, and having enough space is also a good environment. Larger containers not only have extra space to put fertilizer, but also are not easy to dry up when watering in summer, because the containers are large enough and have large water storage capacity. Color, use black with caution, because black absorbs heat, which may damage plant roots after excessive heat absorption. It affects the growth, but if you choose black, you'd better paint a lighter color or cover it up. Avoid direct sunlight. Drainage: There must be drainage holes at the bottom of the container. Poor drainage, plant roots are easy to suffocate and rot; But if the drainage is too fast, plants will be short of water and die of water shortage. You can also buy professional containers from the market, with very neat small drainage holes at the bottom.
2. Planting skills: When growing vegetables at home, the flowerpots should be large enough. The containers for growing vegetables can be old flowerpots, old washbasins, or some foam boxes, empty oil pots and the like, but you can't use flowerpots that are too small, otherwise nothing can be planted, the soil is too small and the fertility is not enough. Moreover, no matter what container grows vegetables, there must be drainage holes at the bottom, that is, a few small holes are punched to prevent water from accumulating. When planting vegetables on the balcony, the soil should be fertile enough, and the soil for planting vegetables should be rich in humus, which can be the soil you find outside or garden soil. It's important to bask in the sun. If possible, try to move to the outdoor terrace to raise and bask in the sun, so that the seedlings will not grow in vain and will not grow old. Moreover, more sunshine will make them short and strong, bloom more flowers and bear more fruits. Soil, but be sure to add some humus, peat or decomposed organic fertilizer to increase nutrients.
