The supermarket buys an onion at $3. 50, leaves the fridge in two days with a yellow-haired hair, and the roots rot easily. You don't buy it at all -- you stick your head in the balcony, you cut the first one in 20 days, you don't pay for it. But a lot of people have sown a whole party house two or three times, and the problem is in three small details. This article tells you about these three pits, just do it。
Don't make a mistake
Go to the market and pick onions. Don't take onions long, pick on onions big and round, and carry wet mud on their roots. Such onions are powerful, and the proportion of people who grow is high. The smaller the onion, the worse it gets, the less it gets, the less it gets. One dollar is enough, pick a few more, and if one doesn't survive and replaces it, it won't be in vain。
Buy it back and don't throw it all over the earth. First, cut off the onions and keep the fried vegetables, with only a small swig. If you don't want to waste it, break the yellow leaves and keep the white part. But there is an iron law that must remember that onions must be carried with their roots, and they cannot survive without them. There's been a mistake. Don't be lazy。
The soil doesn't matter
Onions on the balcony are not so demanding for the earth, they can be used by digging a garden under the flower plaster, and general nutrients like those sold at the flower shop can be grown for two days. The only thing to be noticed is that the earth is not too sticky and that if you stick your hands together or don't let go, you can put some sand in it, or a brick, so that the earth can breathe through it, and not as hard as a mud。
There is no need to buy a large flower pot, and a plastic basin 15 to 20 centimetres in diameter with holes in the bottom is sufficient. Two layers of debris or old bricks on the bottom mattress to prevent water from pouring down. It's gonna be 70% full. The onions are shallow, the soil is too wet to be fatal to it, and when it's too long, the leaves will all go yellow, and it hurts。
How deep is it
It's too deep to be followed. He tried to get deeper and more stable, and he put the whole onion into the earth, and then three weeks later he looked all over and didn't have a bud. The correct approach is to expose onions by two to three centimetres, with only the roots and the small cut below thawing into the soil. Part of the exposed sun grows new leaves and part of the buried leaves take root and do their own business。
When you put it in the basin, don't push it hard, stick a hole two or three centimetres deep next to it with a chopstick, gently put the onions in it, and then put the earth on the side. If three or four trees are planted in a basin, leave about five centimetres between them, and don't squeeze them into pieces. It's too dense to get all the water from each other, it's long and small, and it's just a few chopsticks cut off, and it looks like it doesn't have an appetite to grow。
The water's got rhythm
The first two weeks of planting were periods of rooting, each one sooner or later, when the surface of the soil was dry and dry, rather than just the top floor of the wet. The summer heat evaporates fast, and it'll have to come at once. The low temperature of evaporation in winter is enough for four to five days. The test is simple: the finger is inserted two centimetres into the earth, and it feels dry and watered, so don't look at the earth with feelings or days。
And pour water on the soil of the roots, and do not pour on the leaves. Water beads are accumulated on the leaves and the sun is easily burned, especially when the balcony is southward and at 23 p. M. When the sun is most toxic. In case there's a leak in the bottom of the basin, the next day it's gonna be clean. Onion bubbles start to stink in water for more than half a day, and they stink and rot, and the whole tree is gone。
Rice water is better than fertilizer
You really don't have to buy any extra fat or fat in your family. Don't pour rice, save it for a day or two, tumble it with three times the amount of water, and pour it on the root soil a few days later. The rice water contains starch and trace elements, with low concentrations that do not burn roots, is far more safe than spreading nitrogen into the basin, and saves five or one drops of fertilizer from the balcony。
Autumn and winter onions are grown, and fertilization needs to be saved. After the fall, the temperature goes down, the onion itself is slowly metabolized, and the fat is too much, but the roots are rotten. The whole fall and winter was almost free of extra fertilization, and rice water was poured every month. In the summer, if the leaves are yellow and weak, they can be used once a week with a diluted rice water, with a quicker impact than any fertilizer, the key being zero costs, without a penny。
It's gonna be a long cut
The new leaf grows to more than 15 centimetres, cuts it from two or three centimetres from the ground horizontally, and onions are taken directly from fried vegetables or soup below. After cutting, if the onions are still alive and the roots are in the ground, the new leaf comes out in a week or two. At this pace, it can cut four or five times a summer, enough for a family of three to eat for half a year, much more fresh than the supermarket。
The only thing to remember: never go up. Someone who eats onions and pulls the whole onion out of the soil, it's like throwing the matrix away, and it can only plant another. And as long as it remains in the earth, it can produce new leaves for you, round and round. Once the onions are clearly shrunk, no more sprouting, and a new one is replaced, there will be little need to go to the market for onions in a year。
Have you ever grown onions on the balcony? Is it a live or a party nest? Let's talk about your flipping experience. If you think it's useful, we'll do it next time。
