Whether home gardening should sow seeds or buy seedlings to plant, so the analysis will have the answer.
Choose seeds or seedlings
Most of the time in the past, home gardening or balcony planting started with a seed. But now, as household farming becomes more and more popular, horticultural centers and mail-order companies can also supply large quantities of seeds and seedlings.
This depends on how much time, money and space you have, as well as what plants you have planted before, to decide whether you want to buy seeds or seedlings.
Among them, AHA, the director of this issue is here with you to try to analyze and analyze.
Choose and buy seeds
It is not difficult to plant seeds into plants, and it can also bring a great sense of satisfaction to Taiwan friends.
Flower market and some treasure are all channels for us to get seeds, and we can also collect seeds from flowering plants.
Vegetable seeds vary in size, habit, color and disease resistance. Potatoes grow from tubers, which we call seed potatoes, while miniature onions and chives are called "bulbs" and are an alternative to seeds.
Characteristics.
All vegetables, especially tubers, are best planted with seeds. Alpine strawberries are the only fruits that can be planted from seeds.
Advantages
-the price is cheap
-can be stored for several years (cool and dry environment)
-can control the number of plants and sow in small amounts many times.
Shortcoming
-it takes a lot of time to sow
The director suggested: especially when taking care of the young seedlings sown indoors, Taiwan friends need to prepare some small seedling boxes and there is still enough space.
Selection and purchase of point plate seedlings
The seedling is planted in a modular seedling hole and can be purchased from a flower market or a treasure.
If the indoor or balcony space at home is limited, or if it is unable to provide a suitable environment for sowing, it would be better to choose such a seedling, and it can also help Taiwan friends to save money.
But these young plants are very weak, so when you receive the plants, especially when they are mailed to you in a package, you have to plant them in a change pot and water them.
Oh, by the way, our Taiwan friends' circle of "planting on the balcony" is getting stronger and stronger, so it's better to "share" or "exchange", ! Come on, join us.
Characteristics.
We can buy most young vegetables except fruit trees, especially those that are productive, such as salad vegetables and leafy vegetables such as Swiss beets.
Advantages
It takes less time, saves more space and is more economical than direct sowing.
Shortcoming
The variety of seedling is not as many as that of seed.
The director suggested: in order to avoid loss, we should be very careful in the process of dealing with seedlings, potting, and adapting plants to the new environment.
Selection and purchase of seedlings
The seedling is bigger and stronger than the pot seedling. These sturdy seedlings are planted separately in small flowerpots, so that Taiwan friends can try to grow plants that are very time-consuming to take care of or very difficult to sow through seeds.
If the planting area of Taiyou can only grow one zucchini or one kind of tomato, the more reasonable choice is to buy the seedlings of these plants.
When selecting seedlings, choose those seedlings that are strong, healthy, short, sturdy, oil-green and watery. When selecting seedlings, when selecting seedlings, knock on the flowerpot carefully and take the seedlings out of the flowerpot to check the roots to ensure that the roots are not knotted and grow all over the flowerpot. Note that after the seedlings grow strong and under suitable conditions, they need to be transplanted into a large pot immediately.
Characteristics.
Plants suitable for growing from seedlings are all kinds of strawberries, rhubarb and most fruiting vegetables, such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and eggplant.
Advantages
For plants with larger plant type, the effect can be seen immediately by planting seedlings, and it saves more time and space than sowing and planting.
If Taiwan friends do not have the space to sow seeds indoors and grow heat-loving plants, they can also use this method, and the seedlings can be moved to the outside after the frost period.
If Taiwan friends only plan to plant one or two plants, it is also suitable to choose seedlings to plant.
Shortcoming
Growing vegetables with seedlings is an expensive option, and the variety available is limited.
Moreover, it takes a process for plant seedlings to adapt to the outdoor environment. If the indoor space of Taiwan friends is limited, do not buy the seedlings home prematurely.
Planted on the balcony.
OK, the director showed Taiwan friends their respective advantages from sowing seeds, burrow seedlings to seedlings. I can choose to know each other and know each other.

The excrement of a little earthworm turns out to be the best fertilizer in the world.
A long time ago, the director of the station always thought that earthworms were used to loosen the soil. Although we know that the soil with earthworms is a high-quality planting soil, I don't know why, let alone earthworm composting.
