We barely had time to clean up their plots, and already again want to "dialogue" with green friends who not only charged with vitamins, but also uplifting. So you want life-affirming green landscape on a background of snow-white expanses of windows ...
Today we'll show you how to regain the summer by growing it directly on the... kitchen windowsill. And to make it interesting, giving free rein to their imagination.
How can I do this.
- If important to you kitchen Design, Will have to buy for the cultivation of greenery special containers. Typically, this is the same type of 3-4 the pot in the total pallet. "Aerobatics" - pendant and wall planters. But it is expensive and not everyone can afford.
- If you are only important resultIn which appearance does not matter, it is possible to accumulate under the cups of cream or crop box Tetra Pak. Not very aesthetically pleasing, though... and raise the mood is unlikely.
- And last year my children came to mind creative solutionWe grow in the garden pumpkins small varieties, autumn cut one core, carefully cutting off the top with the "tail" - this will serve as a cover for our pot.
fertilizers It can be purchased as a special in-store and cook yourself. I use ash, chopped egg and peel... Dried banana skins.
What are we going to grow?
I propose to start with the most simple.
- Green onions. As the winter without this "vitamin explosion"? Especially, that the result will be the fastest here. I take the little plastic cups, fill them with water to 1/3 and "planting" them on the onions. It is important to change the water in cups daily! When the roots of the bulbs in transplant them in boxes (just in those where it was before the seedlings) - not deep, tightly to one another. Green feathers grow right before your eyes!
- Dill. Perhaps the most unpretentious "resident of the window sill", if not to be mistaken with the brand. I take a proven "Gribovsky". Seeds are sown not deep, barely prisypaya ground - in the "pumpkin" pots. Until the first seedlings to create a greenhouse effect of covering "lid" of the pumpkin.
- parsley also can be grown from seed, but will have to wait six weeks. Faster - from the root. I dig a few rhizomes in the fall and planting - all in the same pumpkin: these containers hold moisture well, absolutely without getting wet.
- But what about a winter tea? It must be mint and melissa. They can also be grown from seed, but I accelerate the process: the cut off branches in the garden, were grown in a glass of water until roots and planted in pots.
In a similar manner grown in windowsill basil, celery, lettuce, marjoram, etc. - stretch of imagination here limited only by the width of the window sill and... the number of pumpkins!
But the seeds of class, by the wayFor their winter experiments, and of course, for the usual spring planting, I certainly know where to take. A long time and I and my fellow gardeners make purchases here. There's generally a lot of useful and interesting, and you can come in handy. I'll be glad your fingers up. I'm waiting for you to visit on your new site "4 SEASONS Ogorodnikov". All love and embrace, until we meet again!
