Vegetable cultivation on the balcony of turning waste into treasure

In our daily life will produce a lot of garbage, some of which can be decomposed to deal with particularly simple, and there are so few parts difficult to deal with. Especially the bottles. So what do we do with the bottles? Let's learn how to grow vegetables in discarded plastic bottles.

First of all, the abandoned bottles in life are classified according to size, divided into large, medium and small three kinds, and one side of the front is cut off with scissors to keep only the four sides and the bottom. And then put a few holes in the bottom for ventilation. Then arrange them in a certain order, or nail them to wood.

Next is seedling, we can choose to plant simple and easy to survive vegetable varieties, such as green lettuce, red lettuce, bitter chrysanthemum and other vegetable varieties, and then plant them into 50 or 72 holes in the seedling plate, and then cover a layer of vermiculite on it, keep warm and water, and then pour water about five days before the seeds begin to germinate. It takes about 15 days to transplant.

When lettuce seedlings can be transplanted, put peat soil mixed with organic fertilizer in the tidied bottle, irrigate thoroughly, and control excess water. Prepare for transplanting. Transplant one or two seeds in each bottle. The depth of burial is to bury the roots tightly and compact them. After planting, add a little water to promote slow seedling. About three days later the seedlings begin to take new roots.

Usually only a small amount of watering can be done, and fresh and delicious vegetables will be eaten about 30 days after planting.
