Now it is not uncommon to meet on the windowsill besides the usual indoor plants, some types of greenery. This is especially true in winterWhen the street is snowing, and the apartment grows fresh fragrant dill, parsley, onions, salad, basil or other types of spicy herbs in the apartment.

But if in the summer when landing in beds, plants do not require increased attention, then in the apartment it is recommended to follow certain rules for the care and adhere to the conditions of content. Therefore, the proposed recommendations for novice gardens to grow greenery on the windowsill will help create a garden of home with their own hands.

General landing rules

Special grained greenery for cultivation at home does not exist, but it is better to give preference to early and medium-wired determinant species, as they are less demanding on the conditions of content, and the first crop can be cut up much earlier compared to late.

Regardless of the chosen culture, there are certain general rules Planting to pay attention to.



Capacities for growing

For growing greenery on the windowsill, it is necessary to pick up quite roomy containers or pots of at least 18-20 cm. This is necessary so that the plants have the opportunity to increase the strong root system, which guarantees the full development of the above-ground part in the future.

The planting tanks should have drainage holes for the output of excess moisture, which will help reduce the risk of root rot, with improper leaving for plants.

In the case of the use of containers in which other cultures were grown earlier, they must be thoroughly washed out and disinfected in a strong payroll solution.



Substrate for landing

In order for the plants to fully grow and develop, it is necessary to prepare a nutritional soil. It should consist of the following components in such a proportion:

• 30% - nervous soil;
• 20% - peat or leaf land;
• 20% - river sand;
• 20% - coconut fiber;
• 10% - perlite.

But if it is not possible to cook soil or not all components are available, you can purchase the necessary substrate in the store, choosing a universal destination or for seedlings.

3 days before landing, the soil should be shedding "Preview" (10 ml on 6 liters of water) or Maxim (2 ml per 1 liter of water), which will protect shooters from pathogens of fungal diseases.



Preparation of planting material

Before sowing, it is recommended to conduct seed preparation. It can be made to stimulate growth processes and to disinfect the planting material. This procedure will help to activate biological forces and improve the percentage of germination.

Often, gardeners are used by manganese for disinfection, but many newcomers ignore the rate of consumption and the rules of the conduct, which make more harm to seeds than the benefits. The procedure should be carried out in such a sequence:

• dissolve the crystals of mangartage in water at the rate of 1 mg per 1 liter of water, that is, the solution should have a bright pink shade;
• wrap the seeds in several layers of gauze and omit to the resulting mixture;
• withstand them 15 minutes;
• rinse under cold water And dried to the appearance of bulk.

Another option disinfection involves the use of the preparation "Phytosporin". For the preparation of the solution, 1.5 g of means to dissolve 1 liters of water 2 hours before the procedure is needed to activate the active substance. Soak sowing for 2 hours, then dry.

To increase the germination and growth stimulation, it is recommended to apply the following drugs:

• Zirkon is to dissolve 0.025 mg of means in 100 ml of water, which is enough to process 100 g of seeds, soak for 2-4 hours.
• "Epin" is to dissolve 3 drops of the drug in 1 liters of water, to withstand within 3 hours.
• Amber Acid - 1.5 g to dissolve in 1.5 liters of water, soak for 12-24 hours.

After processing the sowing material, it is necessary to immediately fall into the soil, as growth processes have already stepped in it.

Algorithm for holding landing

To create a green bed on the windowsill, you need to properly land, which includes several main stages:

1. 1. Pour in the container a layer of drainage 1.5-2 cm, preferably a large fraction.
2. 2. Fill the remaining volume by the prepared substrate, is not sleeping to the top 2 cm.
3. 3. Loose the surface of the soil and seal it a bit.
4. 4. To richly moisten and give the opportunity to completely absorb.
5. 5. Place seeds at a distance of 1.5-3 cm apart and press to the surface.
6. 6. Putting out the ground with a layer of 0.5-1 cm and compact.
7. 7. Moisten from above the water, spraying it from the sprayer.
8. 8. Cover containers with crops with glass or transparent lid, as high humidity is needed for successful germination.
9. 9. Rearrange the capacity to the windowsill and ensure the temperature of the content of +25 degrees before the appearance of friendly shoots.
10. 10. To regularly check the crops, remove the condensate from the cover with a paper napkin and spray the soil in case of drying up the upper layer.

Once friendly shoots appear, it is necessary to reduce the temperature to 18-20 degrees, which will prevent excessive stretching of sprouts. When the plants are growing and fixed, it is necessary to adapt them to the external environment. Therefore, initially, they should be opened and ventilated, but every day to increase this gap for another 30 minutes. A week after the start of adaptation, the plants can be completely discovered.

In the case of a solid sowing, it is necessary to break the shoots so that the plants are located at a distance of 1.5-3 cm, leaving the strongest and promising sprouts. When you ignore this procedure, the stalks will eventually be pulled out and acquire an unsightly kind

Rules for further care

From how further care will be conducted correctly, it depends, how fast it will grow and how often it is possible to cut the harvest. Place containers are recommended on the eastern or western window, but slightly priestly from direct sunlight, otherwise it will lead to burns on the leaves.

For full growth and plant development, it is necessary that the light day amounted to at least 10 hours all year round. Therefore, in the fall and in winter it is necessary to turn on the backlight in the evening, placing the lamps by 50-60 cm above the seedlings. The lack of light leads to stretching and deformation of the stems.

Many types of greenery calmly carry the gradual decrease in the temperature regime, but at the same time they slow down their growth. For full-fledged development, a temperature is required in the range of 18-20 degrees, which guarantees uniform formation of the above-ground part and the root system, but in case of increasing this level, it is necessary to lengthen the day. In the summer, containers with greens can be put up on a glazed balcony or loggia, but at the same time the night temperature should not fall below 10 degrees.

Watering plants must be carried out regularly when dried up the top layer of the soil, not allowing the drying of the roots. Humidity should be increased, so it is recommended to perform additionally spraying foliage every 2-3 days. In particularly hot periods, it is necessary to place water tanks, which will increase evaporation. With a disadvantage of moisture, the lower leaves will begin shirt and snatch, and crops will have an unsightly weak look. Water for watering should be accumulated room temperature.

Once a week, soil looser should be carried out in a pot to a depth of 0.5-1 cm, which will improve air access to the root system. This procedure helps to normalize metabolic processes in plant tissues and reduce the likelihood of the development of fungal diseases.

Regularly should be made of fantastic beds. To do this, you can use the body (rewriting Korovyak 1:10) or Mineral Fertilizers (Kemira Lux) 1 time in 2 weeks.

Features of growing different crops

Some plants have a number of features that should be considered when their cultivation. Therefore, before proceeding with the landing, you should first familiarize yourself with them.

Sometimes the basic conditions of content are not enough when growing certain cultures, while others can be raised simply in water without resorting to landing into the ground.

Green Luc

This kind of greenery is easiest to grow on the windowsill. As a landing material, it is necessary to use not seeds, but of the north. The larger the bulbs, the more you can cut the harvest. You can plant the onions in both water tanks and a nutrient substrate.




In the first case, the greens will germinate without land before, but at the same time the bulb is depleted much faster. In the second case, the harvest will have to wait longer, but it can be cut it 3-4 times.

Dill

To grow dill on the windowsill, it is recommended to give preference:

• early varieties - Grenader, Mushroom, but when lacking light, plants will be pulled out and deformed;
• late varieties - Kibray, Richelieu, harvesting comes 10 days later than previous species, but it is formed thick compact bushes that can be perfectly withstanding all the conditions of home content.



Seeds of this culture are distinguished by a high content of oil, which slows down the process of germination. Therefore, it is recommended to conduct presexing preparation for this principle:

• prepare a solution of mangalling a weakly pink color;
• wet the seeds for 20 hours;
• every 6 hours the solution should be replaced with a new one;
• after the time expires to merge the seeds that surfaced to the surface;
• copies that sank to the bottom, dry and plant in the ground.

The friendly shoots of dill appear within 10-14 days after landing. And the first harvest can be obtained in 1.5 months after that, but the sealer should be carried out at a height of 3 cm above the soil surface. With each subsequent harvest, the foliage of dope will become tougher, so it is recommended to carry out additional felling into the container, removing gradually old bushes.

Parsley

This kind of greenery can be raised both from seeds and from the rooteplood that you can buy in the store. For the landing, copies of medium length and weighing 30-60 g without explicit signs of damage are suitable. The top of the root is also not cut. When landing, the material should be deepened by 2/3, not sprinkting the growth point.



Petrushki seeds are distinguished by long germination, so they especially need pre-sowing treatment with the help of drugs "Zircon" and "Epin". This will help significantly speed up this process. Plant varieties that are most suitable for growing on the windowsill:

• Fragrant alley;
• Russian feast;
• Beads;
• Morning freshness.

Salad

When growing salad at home, it is best to stop the choice precisely on the leafy of its kinds, since the jams are more demanding on the go and therefore require some specific skills. The best varieties are Lollo Ross and Lollo Biona, who are more enduring to the lack of light, are a little inferior to them - New Year's, emerald lace, vitamin.




Salad does not endure drought and lack of light, resulting in launching flowers, and the leaves are griste and acquired the characteristic bitterness. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly water and watch it, so that the substrate is always slightly wet, and the spraying is carried out daily.

Salad sews are important to cut forward. At the initial stage, the distance between the plants should be 2-3 cm, and in phase 2-3 of these sheets - at least 5 cm. The yield can be cut 1 time, after which the sowing should be repeated.

Basil

This culture on the windowsill can be raised with cuttings or seeds. In the first case, the parent plant will be required from which you can take the top shoots for landing. The rooting takes place in water and does not require any professional skills. To do this, it is enough to cut the cutlets with two interstices. Escape should be lowered to the bottom pair of leaves in the water and wait until the roots appear, then planted in the ground. Greens is quickly adapted and goes into growth, but with this method, it will be possible to cut the harvest of no more than 2-3 times, after which the procedure should be repeated.




In the second case, it is necessary to tinker a little, but it is possible to cut the harvest with a green bed for 1 year. For the cultivation of basil at home, it is necessary to choose mellite green varieties, as purple views are more demanding towards care. In winter, the basil may not climb at all, so it is recommended to take sowing in spring or summer.

The optimal temperature for the growth and development of spinach is +15 degrees, but at +4 seeds are already beginning to germinate. The crop can already be obtained 40 days after the appearance of germs, while plants must have a height of 7-10 cm and 5-7 of the present leaves in the outlet. You can use the green garden of the spinach for 2-3 months, after that sowing should be repeated. Spinach does not tolerate drought and therefore needs regular watering and spraying foliage. The best varieties for growing on the windowsill are: Golyansky, Melody and Stoic.

Arugula

It is not even difficult to grow this kind of greenery that has never been engaged before. But it is necessary to ensure full light and high humidity of the substrate and air. With their lack of sprouts are very pulled out. The first harvest can be obtained 30 days after the appearance of sprouts.




The cut must be carried out at no lower than 3 centimeters above the surface of the soil. In this case, you can count on fresh greens to 2-3 times. Then you need to re-sow.

Observing uncomplicated landing and cultivation rules, you can create your green bed on the windowsill.

Best onions growing on the window, respectively, and grow it easier.

For this, even the soil is not needed: there is a fairly rig, water and the presence of light. In addition to Luke, I highly recommend growing rosemary - grows perfectly, and a great spice.

All the rest of the greens is more demanding on the cultivation conditions. To grow fragrant dill, highlighting is desirable (especially in winter) and availability fresh airBut even under these conditions, you will not get such a fragrance, as when growing this greenery in the open soil. Basil, Kinza, Rukola grows well. Petrushkushka is better to grow, transplanting a plant in a pot from a garden, because the parsley seed is very dramatized, and the aroma is not at all.

I also grown mint and Melissa - they also grow well at home, but better on the balcony with fresh air access.

Soil for growing greenery can be used universal, which is suitable for growing seedlings, but desirable, add large sand or perlite to improve the structure of the soil.

Why buy vegetables and greens in stores, if you can grow them at home? No garden - not trouble! You can grow everything you want, in your windowsill!

Cost of soil and lighting

1. suitable soil is a mixture of pure sand, sawdust, peat and garden land In the same proportions. You can, of course, purchase the finished soil in stores, but there is no guarantee that this land will be without pests and with the prescribed components.
2. lighting, especially in the winter months - necessarily! The lamps are best choosing a luminescent, white spectrum. Standard table lamps There will be a lot of heat, but not enough light. Regularly turn on the lamp for your plants - so that they are in bright light at least 13 hours a day.

Care and watering greenery in winter

Watering Rules:

1. the most important rule: be sure to defend water, do not water the usual running water;
2. do not pour the soil;
3. do not pour water on the leaves;
4. do not allow soil drying.

If the leaves on the plants began to be pale (chlorosis occurs), and the view in plants is not too vigorous - the problem in the acidity of water. If we water the garden of tap (alkaline) water contained in the soil nutrients (manganese, boron, iron, phosphorus) simply stop dissolve and plants begin to suffer. In this case, special phytosmes must be added to the water.

Mandatory condition for a beautiful juicy greens - spraying! Select a few minutes of time for daily spraying of plants and they will answer reciprocity in the form of a good harvest!

What to grow greens and vegetables at home

Plastic containers are suitable for cultivation (wooden can flow fluid) or wide clay pots. For each type of greens, a separate container is needed, since many plants are poorly combined with each other in the process of growth. For example, a parsley, dill and celery can be put in a long polymer box. And herbs such as oregano, mayoran or thyme are better growing separately.

How to grow dill on the windowsill in winter

We select varieties of dill

Not all varieties of dill are suitable for seedlings on the windowsill, while possessing a rich taste and aroma. For mini-vegetable varieties are suitable:

1. Grenader - has light leaves and delicate taste.
2. Mushroom - This variety is very popular, as unpretentious to the temperature regime and resistant to diseases.
3. Richelieu - has fragrant blue-green openwork leaves.
4. Kibray - possesses wide leaves, rich in vitamins, useful for humans.

Preparation of soil and seeds for landing

For landing it is necessary to prepare the soil in advance. To displaced and disinfect the soil - this is one of the most important moments of the future healthy harvest, since it is properly carried out disinfection kills all the "harm" at the future plant.

Embossed soil for disinfection is preferably:

1. warm in the microwave;
2. blur
3. rolling in the oven;
4. disappear

At the bottom of the container, we put the drainage layer, then prepared by the Earth. Seeds must be pre-soaked in warm water for about a day. Water should be changed every 5-6 hours. Then you must dry the seeds with paper or cloth, after which they can be seated in the prepared land.

It is necessary to sow the beds that are previously prepared (the scheme is the same as on the usual garden).

They can be placed right on the soil (without groove), sprinkled with a layer of soil in 2 cm on top.

After seeding, the container should be covered with a cellophane package (film) and remove to a warm, warm place for a week or 10 days. Regularly water, especially during the appearance of germs. Feelable you need once every 2 weeks with complex mineral fertilizer.

Dill - a plant that germinates only with abundant lighting, and therefore it must be subjected to sunny / tube light for 5 hours a day (minimum). The best temperature for dill from +18 0 ° C to +20 0 ° C. Validively Weeks), because after cutting dill does not grow.

What kind of greens can be raised at home in winter?

To grow homemade, not only dill is suitable on the windowsill. You can also land thyme, basil, rosemary, salad, celery, onions, oregano and others. In general, any greens can be grown on a mini garden when complying with certain conditions. And, of course, greens grown by his own and assembled, for example, in mid-January, will be undoubtedly tastier and more useful than that sold in the store.

Grow parsley on the windowsill

Petrushka is a storehouse of useful vitamins. It contains vitamins E, C, A, group vitamins, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium and potassium.

The difference between parsley seeds from other types of green crops in the fact that they germinate somewhat longer. This is due to the presence of essential oils in beans. To speed up the process, they must be rinsed well with water and put on the germination into a wet fabric.

The soil must be prepared in advance. The composition of the soil is simple: garden land mixed with peat. The land from the garden should be treated with a non-alarm mortar to eliminate malicious bacteria.

The container must have a depth of about 20 centimeters. Drainage is placed on the bottom of the container, then fall asleep the earth. After the preparation of the soil, the seeds can be planted. The parsley is planted with a distance with a distance of 10 cm to a depth of no more than 1 cm. Water the ground before planting.

In the future, watering is carried out:

1. in a day - a sprayer - while the seeds do not go;
2. after the appearance of germs, alternate two days later.

Need to maintain temperature mode up to +20 0 ° C and light mode.

Upon respecting all the conditions, the green parsley will be delighted for the third week after landing.

How to grow green onions

Growing onion on the windowsill is a simple matter and bringing a good harvest. Ludka landing differs from the rest of the green cultures by which it begins not from the soil and not with soaking seeds, but from the place of the bulbs in the water. Fill the jar with a narrow throat outstanding water and place a bulb (repfatu) in it, having threw it with boiling water. In the water there should be only the root of the bulbs.

As the bully grows it will grow "arrows" - this is not a green bow, so they need to be cut.

Greens on the windowsill: Green growing at home

Very soon, the bulb will cry and become very small - then she will be ready for landing.

When landing into the ground, the bulb is also unpretentious.

In the prepared ground in the containers, put on bulbs so that they turn out to be in the ground only half. Before this thoroughly paint the earth. Containers install near sunlight (that is why experts recommend to engage in domestic landings in March-April, when sunlight is enough, but it is not advisable to do it in winter). If your room is poorly illuminated - put the lamp above the bow.

The land with a bully should be regularly watered without letting it dry. After 21 days after landing, green onions can be cut off.

Features of growing Cress Salad

Perhaps the salad can be called the most unpretentious plant for home landing. Did not find land? It does not matter - it grows even on wet sawdust and trimming fabric. If you decide to follow the traditions and put the Cress Salad in the soil, stick to such an algorithm:

1. In the soil, plant seeds with a depth of 0.5 cm. The interval between rows-beds is at least 10 cm.
2. Hiding seeds and place a container in an unlit place.
3. After the appearance of sections, move the salad on the windowsill, water regularly, spray and ventilated the room.

Shoots usually appear on 5 day after landing, and the finished harvest can be collected after 3 weeks (maximum).

Vegetables on home window sill

As a rule, domestic gardens become small greenery on the windowsill, and they proceed to growing larger vegetable crops. Among them are already famous tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers who bring juicy fruits.

Choosing the varieties of future vegetables, pay special attention to varieties with small fruits - for example, small cucumbers-rootes or cherry tomatoes. They will not very much and have a smaller root system in comparison with their major comrades.

Farming of vegetables often begins with seedlings. Soak the seeds, as was written before, and then drop them into the prepared soil. For seedlings of vegetables, there are special containers with separate pots. In addition, the stores sell a special land for homemade vegetables, but you can plant seeds and in ordinary soil from the garden. In each container compartment, make a pits in a depth of one centimeter. Pile watering water, seeds are placed there. Seedling should stand on a lit place, do not forget to regularly water it. It is advisable to do it 1-2 times a day so that the Earth never swam. Note that home seedlings are no longer going to take moisture.

Albina Kulabukhova, expert

As soon as several leaves appear on each sprout, the seedlings are transplanted into the pots - each plant separately. Feature the soil with special drugs, add a couple of drops of liquid fertilizer into the spray gun for further pollination.

The transplant in the pot is considered a key point in planting vegetables on the windowsill. After that, the development of the plant begins. Your role is to help him, watering and breaking the soil, spraying and removing sick leaves. After some time, you will notice the first fruits on the branches, and then you will understand: the work has been done not in vain!

Write your stories in the comments and newcomers-gardeners will tell you a lot thank you!

Seeding seeds. Initially, the seeds of parsley must be put in gauze and put in warm water for 1 hour. Then another day left in water, but without gauze. Seeds should germinate, and then they are planted in a container. When the seeds begin to germinate - they need to fire for 4 cm. From each other. The first harvest can be collected in 5 - 6 weeks. In order to restore the plant, it is necessary to tear only part of the greenery from each plant.

Mini - Garden on the windowsill: Secrets of success

• In the process of planting greenery on the windowsill, it is not necessary to use a garden or garden greens. Such a soil can be infected with various insects that will be powered by the seeds and fruits of weeds. It is better to buy ready-made landfills in the store, they are completely clean and contain the necessary components for the correct and active growth of greenery.
• So that the greens grow well, she needs light. Experienced gardeners recommend putting containers with seeds on the southern, southwestern and southeastern sides of the windowsill. In winter seasons, plants need extra light, you can use special lamps.
• Before the fallout seeds you have chosen, be sure to read the instructions that are specified on the packages with seeds. Pay attention to the shelf life, the integrity of the packaging.
• Watering the plants should be regularly, but not allowing excessive humidity. Then the seeds can start rotting, and you will not get the expected greenery.

• In pots, containers or other shears for planting greenery should be drainage holes that will skip moisture.
• Watering the plants is recommended to be estimated with water, it will help reduce the number of salts.
• If clay pots are used for growing plants, then you need more moisture. If there is a container for growing plastic, then you need to water the fruit less often.

Any business should be engaged in good mood - Then even washing windows, floors or dishes will not seem boring and tedious. If the upcoming process causes disgust, turn on your favorite music or TV.

In modern apartments with large windows, there are all conditions for obtaining greenery from mini beds. It is enough to make a little effort, choose a culture, buy seeds, prepare the soil and find suitable containers. Plant care will bring not only the benefit, but also joy.

For growing greenery and vegetables, boxes, flower pots or wide glassware are suitable on the window. Plastic dubious quality is better not to use, because it highlights toxic substances from which plants are sick and develop worse. If the aesthetic component is important, you can buy a special container for the garden on the windowsill. It provides holes for draining excess water, and length and width are sufficient even for tomato bushes.

Sizes and choice

The size of the homemade box should be such that it fit on the windowsill, and plants were enough light. For example:

• height - 12-15 cm;
• width - 20-25 cm;
• length - 45-55 cm.

It is necessary to decide on the place before growing greens. At home in winter, there is enough light only on the southern and southeast windows. For tomatoes and cucumbers of natural lighting will not be enough, so you have to buy lamps. Theoretically, boxes can be delivered anywhere, at least dark roomBut then there will be a powerful artificial illumination.

Soil preparation and sowing

At the bottom, a layer of drainage material is mandatory. It can be pebbles, pebbles, large sand, small pieces of brick or clay. Drainage is needed so that the excess water is not stood in the lower layer of the soil, and flowed freely through the holes. The soil is prepared in advance. You can buy it in the store or skip from autumn on the site.

Shortly before sowing the land is poured with boiling water, and some gardeners steamed it in the oven, all microorganisms and insect larvae died. When the soil cools, pour it into the box, make grooves and lay out seeds. From above, sprinkled with a layer of approximately 0.7-1 cm. Watering once a day or a day, depending on temperature and humidity and indoors.

Seeds asparagus, parsley and dill before sowing it is better to warm up in hot water And for a few days to hold in a wet marlay, so that they are faster. These cultures are considered to be tugless, and without preparatory procedures for the appearance of sprouts will have to wait 15-20 days.

From the first days, shoots are protected from elevated temperature. If under the windowson, there is a battery, it is closed with a shield, and an humidifier is used indoors. Dry air is harmful, like overwhelmed. The optimal microclimate can be created using a wet tissue, spreading it directly to the radiator.

Lighting, watering and feeding

For highlighting use ultraviolet lamp. The length of the daylight should be from 12 to 16 hours, and it is necessary to increase the time gradually, adjusting to the natural cycle. The lack of light manifests itself as:

• elongated stems;
• thin leaves;
• pale coloring of all parts of the plant.

When there are light spots on the leaves, but the rest has a normal color, it is a lack of nutrient elements or a reaction to low acidity of water. If the soil is fertile, besides enriched with nutritional medicines, it means that water does not interact with other elements. Iron, manganese, phosphorus, boron, potassium and magnesium are not digested by plants. The yield is: Water with bottled water or add acidity regulatory fluids to tap-taps (is in the shops of gardening goods).

Parsley, salad, sorrel, dill and everything else that has grown at home, has a special taste. This product is obtained without the use of pesticides and chemicals. Young leaflets fall on the table with fresh, and not two weeks after they were broken. Such grass is better taste, there are more vitamins.

What can sow winter

All leafy vegetables grow well on the windowsill. If you try, there will be a crop of tomatoes, cucumbers, stevia. This greens can be grown on the windowsill in winter:

Special requirements for conditions Herbs do not prevent. Rail the greens on the windowsill in winter for beginners will not be difficult, but to get the crop of pepper or cucumbers, have to try.

Post on the windowsill mini bed with this spice - a good idea. But there is a mistake common even among those who know how to grow dill. At home, in winter and spring, not all varieties feel good. It is recommended to suite such:

• Kibray;
• Richelieu;
• Mribovsky;
• Grenadier.

What to choose depends on personal preferences. The Grenader has an amazing taste and aroma, mushroom resistant to diseases and a lack of light, the quibray variety is valued for the elevated content of vitamins, and the rickel's beautiful lace leaves. The soil is prepared as described above. The seeds are soaked for a day, changing water every 5 hours, then dried on the napkin, decompose into longitudinal recesses and sprinkle. Another option (accelerated): withstand the seeds in the wet gauze 4-5 days, then dried to a bulk state and sow into the grooves.

After germs, provide the highlight of the UV lamp, including it in the morning and in the evening or for a whole day. The feeders make care, because nitrates accumulate in the greenery. It is better to use store nutritious mixtures, and if you don't want to risk, you can water the plants with the infusion of the used tea welding. Mineral fertilizers are impossible to use.

"10 secrets of home care"

And this time I suggest discussing the best cultures for home "beds" - those that do not require special concerns, but at the same time they invariably make harvest in the shortest possible time. I present my list and count on your comments.

1. Green Luc

He heads my "hit parade", of course, green onions. Probably, at least once in his life he grown on the windowsill each, even if only in childhood, from curiosity. it perfect plant For home care: fast growing, unpretentious, useful.

As planting material Onion of the north can be used (large fraction - samples), and the usual onion river. I tried both options; From Sevka (or petty repka), the harvest, of course, is less - the bulb is faster thanks. But the feather - for my taste - softer and tender. In addition, small-leaf takes less space when landing. A large bulb gives more than greens, her feather is usually larger, and it is possible to get a harvest with her longer.

Small bulbs can be used as a planting material. Photo by the author If your onion-repka is not so much to use it for pastures, you can specifically buy by the autumn samples - in supermarkets and specialized summer house stores at the end of the season we sell with good discounts. I would not advise such a landing material on the repkah, but for pastures - just right.

It is possible to plant a bow on the trash in small tanks with water or nutrient solution (so that the bulb in any case does not fall into the water, but only touched it) or in the ground. I personally like the second option more: the bulbs on the water often begin to refuse, extinguishing a specific aroma; With soil, I have never happened to me.

In the soil for planting, I will certainly imitate the hydrogel, clumsy in solution of the Gumi (this biological product strengthens the plants additionally nourishes them, increases resistance to diseases). In room conditions, the soil substrate dries quickly, and the hydrogel does not give bulbs to suffer from moisture deficit.

To always be with a harvest, it is best to plan regularly - every 10-14 days. Then by the time, as from the first "bed", the crop will be fully assembled, it will take a greens in the next - and so until the spring.

Bush S. green bow. Photo by the author for landing I use small plastic boxes. On the bottom I smell a clamzite (holes for the drain excess moisture There are no boxes, so the drainage is needed), on top - a soil with a hydrogel of about half a drawer. Slightly complied with a mixture, put on the bulbs close to each other, without blocking them into the soil. I abundantly irrigate - and that's it.

Since I usually already sprouted onions, harvest for a long time to wait. Some specific procedures (trimming, wigging and the like), which are often recommended to be performed when an armor for a feather is distured, I do not see any particular need, and there is always enough time. But if you, friends, there is such an experience, and you see the benefits of such processing, will certainly share your opinion in the comments - the recommendations of the practitioners are always priceless!

2. Cress Salad

I will say right away: this plant herself grown only once - did not impress its gastronomic properties. Personally, I also had a leaf mustard to taste more to taste - also a very undemanding plant of a family of cruciferous. But the taste, as you know, is a purely individual thing, and I still take the courage to recommend the Cress Salad as one of the best cultures for home gardens. Why?

• Firstly, it is like onions - exclusively unpretentious. Those who have no opportunity or desire to spend time on labor-intensive care for "beds" on the windowsill, it will certainly appreciate, I believe.
• Secondly, He is very rapid: already in 2-3 weeks after the appearance of shoots (and they will not wait to wait too)) you will please you with a young vitamin greenery.
• ThirdlyNature has endowed the Cress Salad with a lot of useful properties: regular use of this culture helps to normalize blood pressure, improve digestion and sleep. It was used as a remedy for cingi, and the juice was treated by anemia and avitaminosis.

Cress Salad - Vintage Two weeks If you have children, try to sow the Cress Salad along with them - at least the experiment for the sake of. This is a plant from those with which it is worth the introduction to gloomily, because failure is almost excluded!

Cress Salad successfully grows on the window sills even in winter - it is very coolly (the temperature is ideal for it from +15 to +18 degrees) and is not demanding to light. The only thing he needs is regular moistening of soil and air, since droughts this plant does not like. So that the green on the table is constantly, the next portion of the Cress Salad is recommended to heal every 7-10 days.

3. Sheet salad

As a big salad lover, I could not, of course, bypass him. This culture is a little more demanding than green onions and cress and salad, but for the sake of juicy greenery it is worth trying. What should be considered?

• Firstly, Salat at home needed a shower is a light-loving culture. The lack of light will lead to the early formation of flowers. The problem is partially solved by the choice of varieties. I was well shown by Lollo Ross and Lollo Biona (my favorites); Recommended for home gardens also New Year's varieties, vitamin, emerald lace.
• Secondly, Salad painfully reacts to drought and heat: the leaves are griste and become bitter, the flowers are quickly formed.
• Thirdly, Salad shoots need to cut forward. It is recommended to do it twice: a week after the appearance of germs at a distance of 1-2 cm between seedlings, and in phase 2-3 of the present leaves - 4-5 cm. If there is a thickening of crops, the plants will stretch, weakened, and the harvest you are most likely You will not see.

Young plants of sheet salad. Photo by from growing cochanic forms of salat At home, it is better to refuse until there is enough experience: they are more demanding and need more thorough care than their leafy counterparts, and they are usually longer. Listed Salad I, too, honestly, did not even try to grow at home to standard sizeswhich he reaches in the garden - it was quite enough to be delicate young leaves. But, if the place allows, and there are suitable conditions for salad, it is quite realistic to receive large outlets.

4. Petrushka

Greens of parsley houses can be obtained in two ways: sowing seeds in the ground and pasture From the harvested roots. The second way, although it requires some prior training, is generally easier. Even if you did not prepare the landing material from the autumn, you can search for high-quality roots for trampling in vegetable departments.

For our purposes, the healthy root roots of the medium-sized parsley (30-60 g of weight) are suitable without signs of wilting. They must be preserved the top kidneys - strongly circumcised greenery plants will not be given.

Good moisturizing the soil in the box or flower pot, plant roots, covering the soil of their crown. You can trim too long (cut by coal to avoid rot) or plant obliquely. The last option is considered even more preferable than the usual landing.

Parsley from seeds at home. Photo by the author if you grow a parsley from seeds, you must take into account two nuances: the plant is light-blast, and its seeds germinate quite slowly. When sowing a parsley with parsley, it was not very successful about the source of light, and the seedlings immediately began to stretch. And accelerate germination succeeded due to the preliminary soaking of seeds in a solution of the Gumi (I somehow tell about this remarkable drug more).

The colds parsley is not afraid, so she feels great on the windowsill. Special requirements for moisture plant also does not present - we water the need, depending on the conditions indoors. I have already traditionally under all such landings I will find the hydrogel, so I usually do not occur with the irrigation problems at all.

Read more about the cultivation of this plant at home, read in the article How to grow parsley on the windowsill.

5. Schitt-bow

This culture will require a small preliminary training: to get a crop all winter, it is necessary to prepare from the fall studing Material. Small curtains of the Schitt-Luke dig up and cutting off the pen, plant in drawers or pots, which are stored in the basement or on the balcony.

In winter, they are made to the warm room and put them closer to the light. The feather at the Schitt-Luke rustles quickly; It can be pulled out from the knife selectively or cut completely. I like his taste - more gentle and soft than an ordinary green onion, therefore (taking into account the ease of cultivation) I am without hesitation, I am putting a shnitt-bow into my list of best cultures for homeic.

As my experience showed, at home, the harvest from one plant can be obtained twice, after which it is depleted, even with good care and feeding. Therefore, it is reasonable to prevent several tanks with the planting material to grow green throughout the winter. Well, early spring Schitt-bow one of the first germinates in the garden.

The green of the Schitt-Luke is a harvest with home "Circling". Photo by the landing material for the surveillance it is advisable to take from the landings that you intend to cut forward or completely removed - the plants used for pasture are no longer restored, and after final harvesting is removed.

An important nuance: Schitt-bow is very sensitive to moisture - with her lack of feather, it grures and begins to be noticeably damaging, flowerons are quickly formed. I put an experiment: in the same tanks planted the same decene; One thing in the usual soil, the second - in the mixture of soil with hydrogel. Visible, what is called, the unarmed eye, the differences in the growth and development of plants confirmed the assumption of the benefits of using the hydrogel and in this case.

Let's summarize

This is the following list. I tried to grow at home and radishes, and dill, and kinza; As a child, he was planted beans and peas. Potted the greenery of beets and carrots, tried to preserve the Basil transplanted from the garden ... In a word, there were many different experiments, and the listed cultures were among my favorites.

Decisive when choosing There were such factors as simplicity of cultivation and undemanding to the conditions. I repeat what I have already said not once: you can grow at home almost any garden culture, but not everyone has the opportunity for this. Therefore, the best plants for homely in the house - those that will not be difficult to grow in any.

Let me remind you: a vegetable garden on a balcony or windowsill: Features of homely gardening is the topic of another lesson in our Gardery Academy. Recommendations of agrofirm specialists Search, together with which we organized this project, will help newcomers to quickly master the garden wilts, and experienced gardens - to systematize and deepen their knowledge.
