What vegetables are good to grow at the south wall?

Rural people who love to grow vegetables can plant some vegetables at the foot of the south wall, and the whole yard is full of flowers and vegetables. This helps save money and they can eat fresh green vegetables, which is something city people cannot compare with.

There is little sunlight at the base of the south wall, so some shade-tolerant vegetables should be planted, such as Chinese cabbage, Andrographis paniculata, mint, shallot, Pakchoy, rapeseed, and water spinach.

1. Scallops

The radish can be planted in spring, summer and autumn. When the temperature is above 23℃, the seedlings will emerge quickly. After emergence, they need to be thinned out, keeping a distance of about 10 cm. Maintain sufficient fertilizer and water, and they can be harvested in 20 days.

In summer, it is best to plant it at the south wall to prevent the leaves from being exposed to the sun and wilting, which will affect its growth. The leaves of the Chinese cabbage have fine hairs and a crisp taste, making them suitable for stir-frying, cold salad, and making soup.

2. Mint

Mint can refresh the mind, repel mosquitoes and insects, etc. It can also be brewed into tea to prevent heatstroke.

Mint is drought-resistant and shade-loving. It has no restrictions on the growing environment and can grow well even in poor soil. It is very easy to plant. The seeds fall to the ground in autumn and will germinate again in the spring of the following year.

In addition, mint can also be eaten. When eating, harvest the tender tip, whether it is cold or with vegetables, it is very delicious.

3. Water spinach

It is best to wait until the temperature is above 23℃ before sowing water spinach, so that the seedlings will emerge quickly and pests and diseases will not occur. If the temperature is below 20℃, the germination will be late, which will affect the emergence rate.

Water spinach can be planted in holes or in shallow trenches 5 cm deep. The seeds do not need to be sown too densely, and the spacing should be kept. It takes about 20 days from sowing to harvesting, and you can eat the green vegetables you planted yourself.
