These vegetables have a good anti-cancer effect. Balcony vegetables are the first choice to look good and delicious.

Nowadays, more and more friends like to raise some potted plants at home, such as ivy, green pineapple, orchid and so on, which can not only green the home environment, but also have the effect of purifying the air. Of course, in addition to these common potted plants, home potted vegetables are also a good choice to harvest truly green and pollution-free vegetables. So, today, I would like to share with you a wave of potted anti-cancer vegetables. Several pots are planted on the balcony. They are good-looking and delicious, and they are getting healthier and healthier. Let's take a look.

Spinach-fighting cancer

Spinach contains a lot of plant crude fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis, facilitate defecation and reduce the residence time of carcinogens in the intestinal tract. And eating spinach can reduce the damaging effect of carcinogens in cooked meat on human cells and halve the risk of intestinal tumors, from 58% to 32%.

Pot method: potted spinach on the balcony can be planted by sowing. Spinach seeds have water chestnuts, like thorns, which need to be paid attention to when sowing. First pour the soil into a balcony vegetable container and spread it flat, then spread the pre-soaked seeds evenly on it, cover with soil and press gently. Then pour enough water to flow out from the bottom of the basin; about a week later, spinach seeds begin to germinate, and when they first germinate, they must be watered sooner or later, not too much, just keep the soil moist, and promote new buds to grow as soon as possible. where it is too dense, some seedlings need to be pulled out; spinach seeds are small, buds are small, and they begin to show crowding when they grow up. When about 2 leaves, pluck off some weak seedlings in a place that is too dense, and it is appropriate for the plant to be about 5cm; when spinach grows about 3-4 leaves, it is necessary to make the spinach strong, not just tall. Therefore, it is necessary to control the amount of water to make the leaves fat; when the temperature is high, you should pick it in time to prevent aging. You can pick a stubble in less than a month in time, and then plant it again immediately. Everyone knows that spinach nutrition is very high in leaf vegetables.

Asparagus-the first Anticancer Plant

Asparagus contains comprehensive nutrients. Asparagus is particularly rich in tissue protein, folic acid, nucleic acid and selenium, which ranks first among 30 kinds of anti-cancer plants and is recognized as an anti-cancer drug in the world. Asparagus enters the lung meridian and kidney meridian and is effective in the treatment of lung cancer, kidney cancer, skin cancer, bladder cancer and lymphatic cancer.

Pot planting method: soak in 25 ℃-30 ℃ warm water for 3-5 days, change water 1-2 times a day, wait for seeds to absorb enough water, mix fine sand or vermiculite, pack them in containers, cover with wet towels, accelerate germination under 25-30 ℃ conditions, turn twice a day, and sow seeds after 5-8 days of exposure. The method of sowing can be peat soil or seedling soil plus seedling tray, seedling block and seedling box. The thickness of covering soil is about 2-3cm, and the best temperature is 25-30 ℃. When the seedling height is above 15cm, the pot can be moved into the flowerpot, the pot depth should be above 25cm, the sandy loam rich in organic matter or sun-dried and broken pond mud and flushing sand (3:1) with a pH value of 5.8-7 should be exposed to the sun for a week and disinfected to make a pot soil, and then apply rotten barnyard manure and compound fertilizer as base fertilizer; pay attention to ventilation and moisturizing after planting, soil moisture should be kept at 60% 70%, appropriate watering should be done after drought, and drainage ditches should be dug in the rainy season to prevent rotting roots. Asparagus is actually very easy to raise, as long as you have patience, let's briefly talk about harvesting. Asparagus usually starts harvesting around the middle of May, usually between 9-11:00 in the morning, using a stainless steel knife, neatly cut off the tender stems, do not leave high stubble in the stem, be careful not to harvest all of them, leave 1-2 robust stems for photosynthesis each plant, and timely coring and controlling the plant height when its height reaches 70cm.

III. Carrots-Prevention of Lung Cancer

Lack of vitamin A, the incidence of cancer is more than 2 times higher than that of normal people. The carotene contained in carrots can be converted into a large amount of vitamin A, so it can effectively prevent the occurrence of lung cancer and even prevent or reverse the progression of transformed cancer cells. Carrots are rich in folic acid, which is a B vitamin and also has anticancer effect. Lignin in carrots also has the function of improving anti-cancer immunity and indirectly killing cancer cells. For long-term smokers, if you can drink half a cup of Fresh Carrot Juice every day, it also has a protective effect on the lungs.

Pot planting method: after watering the potted soil, sow the seeds on the soil surface, cover the soil with about 2cm, keep the soil moist and germinate in about 10 days at 18-25 ℃; grow very slowly in the seedling stage, pay attention to water control so as not to grow, do not dry, spray 1-2 thin mature organic manure with watering; the first seedling is carried out when 1-2 true leaves are watered, and the plant spacing is about 2-3 cm and 3-4 true leaves, and the plant spacing is about 5cm. When 5-6 true leaves were used, the seedlings were planted for the third time, and the plant distance was about 15cm. Generally speaking, seedlings with too deep, too many or too short leaves should be pulled out. It can also be transplanted and planted when 2-3 true leaves are planted, and when the plant distance is about 15 cm, 7-8 true leaves begin to fertilize normally, combined with watering, spraying every 20 days or so; the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be increased when the fleshy root begins to expand; after planting for about 3 months, when the succulent root is fully expanded, it can be harvested, at this time, cracks usually appear in the soil near the succulent root, and the heart leaves are yellowish green and the outer leaves begin to wither. Pour water before harvest, pull out the carrots when the soil softens, or carefully dig out the fleshy roots with bamboo and other tools.
