Hello, i'm wa'ai's bread, which brings you up to date every day
A short video was painted on a day-to-day basis shared by a female university student in chongqing. In crowded, small university dormitories on the balcony, using idle plastic buckets to modify the flower basin, plant a few strawberries, wait slowly for flowers, pickles, and eventually create a red-skinned strawberry. This video, which records life, captures a large number of praises from the internet and is on fire。
Many people read the messages and feel full of healing across the screen. At the school level, there is considerable pressure to study, and daily classes, homework, preparation for examinations and the rhythm of life are tight. In the square inch of the balcony, who sow care and watch the small seedling draw leaves and bloom until the fruit is harvested, the small sense of accomplishment is that the short video cannot be painted by a mobile phone。
Many, however, see only good images of strawberry harvesting, while ignoring the objective limitations of the dormitory environment. The small size of the dormitory space, the limited light, the general ventilation and the constraints imposed by the regulation of the dormitory management do not mean that the seedlings are buried in the soil. A number of students have watched the video with a hot and windy head, and in the end have either rotted or had no flowers, scattered their dormitories, bred small flying worms, and caused displeasure among their roommates。
Today, in the context of this red-hot school case, the young people are feeling the joy of their lives, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, the reality of the conditions in which strawberries are grown on the balcony of the dormitories, the manner in which they are practiced, and on the other hand, the rules that must be observed in the dormitory cultivation, with a reference to the friends of the students who are trying to grow them。
I. A small balcony in a red dormitory: a bucket of water and a flowerpot, where the beauty of the earth is bred
The dormitories of the female university student in chongqing are similar to those of most higher education institutions, with only one small external balcony. Without a large terrace, without a professional gardening flower pot, she was collecting material, cutting and retrofitting the drinking large barrel-filled spring buckets, and drilling the drainhole at the bottom for use as a simple flowerpot。
Strawberry seedlings were bought on the net, fed with nutrients and carefully ploughed into the modified buckets. When available, they visit the balcony, pour water, observe the foliage state, meet the flowering stage and pollute the flowers with a cotton sign. There are expectations and setbacks throughout the process, with yellow leaves and aging, not easily abandoned。
After a period of careful care, a small green fruit emerges slowly on the green vines, which grow day by day and turn red. When it's ripe, a red, full strawberries. On the side of the barrel, the leaves of the green oil lined up with red fruit and looked particularly comfortable。
There's no scenery in the video. It's the real scene in the general college dormitory. Not just a handful of strawberry fruit, but rather a little bit of busy schooling, young people have a spiritual attachment to what they seek. Most young people are now used to instant entertainment and can buy what they want at once, with little willingness to spend time waiting for a plant to grow。
A strawberry, from seedlings to results, requires patience for several decades. Learning is tired to go to the balcony and to watch the plants thrive and the anxiety is eased. The emotional value of this cultivation is much greater than the food value of several strawberries themselves。
But behind the festivities lies the reality: success does not mean that it can be repeated. There are many short panels in the dormitory environment, which constrains the growth of fruit and vegetables and makes it easy for blind and wind to step on pits。
Ii. Four practical dilemmas of building strawberries that can't be bypassed
It is still difficult to grow a family balcony, and the accommodation conditions are more stringent。
First, light conditions are difficult to meet。
Strawberries are radiant plants and, in order to have a successful flowering effect, it is best to ensure that the sun is projected directly over six hours a day. Many dormitories are not ideal, are northwards or are blocked by buildings, with only two or three hours a day of light. Without enough light, it can only grow wildly long leaves, and it is difficult to take flowers, even if they bloom, and the fruits are small, sour and even the fruits are just dying. It's hard to grow proper strawberries without enough light and water。
Secondly, space is limited, ventilation is inadequate and can easily breed insects。
The dormitories are very small and have been crowded with several basins. Influencing, combined with soil moisture in the basins, tends to breed small flying insects such as black flies, as well as dusty and rotten roots. Dust debris can easily be spilled on the balcony floor, may not be cleaned in a timely manner, may affect the public health of the dormitories, and may cause internecine conflicts. In particular, dormitories, which are not separate homes for individuals, must be grown not only by themselves, but also by others living with them。
Thirdly, the summer holidays are closed to plants。
Universities have summer holidays of more than a month and two months. The students left school and came home, and the strawberries left in the dormitories were not watered. During the summer, hot and hot sun, the soil is dry and the plants are dying; the cold and cold in winter make it difficult for the seedlings to survive. Many have started to learn, leaving only the dry flower pots, which have been in vain for months。
Fourth, the regulations governing dormitories are binding。
Most schools allow small small green plantations, but have hidden requirements for growing fruit and vegetables. It is not possible to use large oversized containers, to scatter mud, to breed mosquitoes, to produce odor and to block the drains of the balcony. If the soil is spilled in large quantities and the water stinks, it will be asked to be cleaned up during the bedding. The use of large containers is not recommended, large amounts of soil fertilizers are not stacked and violations of dormitories regulations are avoided。
In order to recapitulate the good on the internet, we need to take these realities into account first, and not simply blindly。
Iii. Student party dorms grow strawberries, dry stuff, just do it less. The pit
If the dormitories are luminous and the roommates are not in a position to agree, and are willing to spend time with them, the following practical points may be consulted to maximize the probability of survival。
One, don't be greedy
Newbies don't buy a few bucks on the internet for a bunch of naked saplings with low survival rates. Priority is given to seedlings with the original earth basin, green leaves, clean roots, no black hair, no large yellow leaves, two or three healthy leaves。
On top of the varieties, preference is given to varieties suitable for pelvis, which are highly resistant, such as beads, tans, which are not susceptible to disease, and are more likely to catch fruit in the plant environment. Don't buy too much at once, room space is limited, 2-4 is enough for fun and too much can be done。
2. Containers and soils, dormitories box
Like the girls in the video, the water can be modified with a large mineral bucket, with more draining holes at the bottom, which is the leading cause of strawberry death. If you can't fix the bucket, it's about 18 centimeters. The plastic flower basin with a drainhole, with a single strawberry, is not crowded in the same basin and is prone to competition for nutrients and poor ventilation。
The soil does not go directly to the school campus to dig up the garden, which is easily grounded, and contains seed of eggs and weeds. The internet buys ready-to-use loose nutrients, blends into a small amount of pearl rock, and upgrades the air drain. Remember, strawberries are shallow roots, the worst of which is dry water, and air is always first。
3. Plantation, watering critical details
When planting, the heart of the strawberries must be exposed to the soil, and never buried in the soil, which can easily die directly. The water is soaked once, it is soaked for two or three days in the air。
The water is dry and dry, and the surface soil is seen dry and re-watering, so that it can be watered once. Water is used to water the soil as much as possible, not on the heart of the plant and on the fruit of the child, and water is accumulated in the leaves for long periods of time and is highly perishable. The dormitories are poorly ventilated, preferring to dry or water more frequently。
Four, flower pollination, thinness
There are no bee insects on the interior balcony and artificial pollination is required after flowering. Take a cotton sticker, rub it on every little flower, and finish pollinating it, otherwise it's easy to grow deformed little fruit。
Fertilizers must be applied with caution and the dormitories do not recommend the use of organic fertilizers of high taste. Diluted potassium phosphates can be used to reduce concentrations and be used in small quantities. Fertilizer concentrations are too high to be easily burned to burn the seedlings directly. No nitrogen fertilizer in the long run, and more nitrogen fattening only leaves and no flowers。
5. Treatment of school leave
Strawberries don't survive summer vacations. Saplings can be given to students in school, or psychological expectations can be prepared before the holiday, as a season experience and replanted. Don't expect a seedling to grow for years, and the pelvis itself is mostly experienced as a season fruit and vegetables。
Iv. Disaggregation of major areas, dormitories, more fun than harvest
It is important that the mentality be right and that the balcony of the dormitory grow strawberries, primarily for the pleasure of planting, and not expect to harvest a large amount of strawberry fruit。
A large family balcony, with a strawberries, can produce a lot of fruit; however, the dormitories are semi-closed, and the environment is restricted, with an approximate yield of only a few fruits. It is normal to spend a lot of time working for a month or two and last to eat only two or three little strawberries. Don't hold on to the expectations of “freezing strawberries” too high to be disappointed in the end。
Strawberries are not recommended if the balcony light is poor and the direct sunlight is less than four hours per day. Green plants, such as mints, meat, lower requirements for light and better subsistence, can be replaced with more suitable green plants for dormitories。
There is also a small reminder for group accommodation: simple communication with roommates before planting. It was agreed in advance that water would be watered and the soil would be washed up and taken care of. Respect for dormitory management requirements, clean-up during bedding, and no large amounts of fertilizers, which can cause trouble in the canteens。
V. More than a strawberry: the love of the present generation of young people
In recent years, balcony cultivation has become more popular with young people, not only university students, but also with many urban workers, who also like to grow fruit and vegetables on balconyes and windowsills. It's not about saving the money to buy fruit and vegetables, it's about finding a spiritual exit in a fast-paced life。
The daily work of learning is very stressful, and life is full of screens, homework and tasks. It is a low-cost emotional decompression to plant a seedling, to see it sprouts, blooms, results, and to feel life growing。
Chongqing's university student is famous, and that's the simple and simple way to impress her. There is no need for expensive equipment, no pursuit of high-yielding harvests, but the use of idle objects, which spends a little extra time on debris to guard a small expectation。
But romance is romantic, and reality cannot be ignored. It's okay to appreciate the cure, but before you follow the wind, take a look at the light, the space, the roommate's feelings, how you plant the plant during the holiday, and don't get a lot of it back in your head, and then get into trouble。
At the end
The image of a small dormitory balcony, a bucket-refitting flower basin, a few strawberry seedlings, and the fruit of a red-hot seedling, has cured countless netizens。
We envy that beauty, but also look at the limitations of dormitories. The meaning of cultivation is focused on the experience process rather than on the number of fruits to be harvested. Respect for the dormitory environment, taking into account the experience of the roommates, and rational choice on the basis of actual conditions, will make it possible to truly enjoy the pleasures of this cultivation。
The beauty of life does not necessarily cost much money, treat it with heart, and grow a surprise in small corners。
