Oh you grow veggies? How do you grow them? Any tips?
Tips? I'm stunned myself that they love being with me. I never expected it to be a success like that. :blush:
First, you buy the regular 'houseplant' soil and just the seeds. You get those little brown cubes as 'nursery'
See piccie below.
You make sure the soil is quite saturated with water that the seeds nor the seedlings dry out. It's better you water them at the bottom then straight into the cube or you'll drown them :blush:
I give my veggies water twice a day and NO not 'tapwater'. They drink Evian Only the BEST for my babies. According to the veggie, they grow into a plant after a week or even a month later.
They need lots of natural light and natural warmth. NO central heating!
When they grow as big as the length of the cube, you carefully give them a new home. I 'recycle' plastic containers or buy cheap ones like the piccie below.
To minimize the 'shock' of getting a new home. I make sure they get all the 'old' earth mix it with the new and I let them 'listen' to MJJCommunity radio
How they grow like trees like my 'cherry tomatoes' (piccie coming soon) is all about TLC. Make sure they have enough water, warmth, light and you 'coach' them to grow and be good.
Yeash, that means you have to TALK to them. Plants and veggies are very sensitive to love and touch. They are like 'babies' though they are 'veggies'.
