Huahua knows that people who like to grow flowers must also be very interested in growing vegetables. Growing vegetables is similar to growing flowers. Although they are both grown, their uses are different. Generally speaking, we plant flowers for appreciation and to cultivate our sentiments. But our purpose of growing vegetables is simple and pure, just to eat!

Although the balcony of this house is small, if you really want to plant some vegetables, you can have more than five or six kinds! Huahua has introduced to you many vegetables that can be grown on home balconies before. Friends who are interested can read the previous articles. Today Huahua is here to introduce to you new vegetables that can be grown on the balcony! It is: radish leaves!

Everyone has heard of radish tops, which are the green leaves on the top of the radish. Younger friends may not know that radish tops are also edible. Generally, they pinch off the green leaves on the top of the radish after buying it. But these radish leaves are good stuff! It would be a bit of a waste to throw it away.

When I was a child, my mother often used radish tops to make dumplings, and they were also good for cooking occasionally. What you may not know is that radish cherry is rich in nutrients, including many trace elements that we cannot normally take in but the body needs, such as calcium, iron, zinc, as well as carotene, vitamin C, fiber, etc. It can be said that it has many benefits~

Without further ado, let me teach you how to plant it! Planting radish tops is relatively easy compared to planting radishes. We can buy a bag of radish seeds in the market and start sowing them. Radish tops are very easy to grow and are not picky about the soil. You can just use some soil from the garden downstairs to grow them.

After preparing the soil, we can add a little fertilizer to the soil. The nutritious soil will be of some help to the future growth of radish leaves. Choose a large pot for planting radish tops so that you can grow enough radish tops to eat. When sowing, sprinkle the seeds in the pot, then lightly cover the seeds with a layer of soil, water them thoroughly, and you're done!

What we have to do next is to wait quietly for half a month to a month, the radish leaves will be almost grown, and then we can pick them and cook them! There are really many ways to cook radish tops, you can use them for making dumplings or cooking! Friends who are interested must not miss such nutritious dishes!

Some friends may ask, is it really a good time to grow vegetables? It’s the best season to grow vegetables! The temperature this season is just right. If it were a little colder, it might not be suitable for planting. What's more, radish tops are relatively cold-resistant and can survive in slightly cold weather. If you like to eat them, you can plant several crops!

How about it, isn’t it easy to grow radish greens? In fact, we have a lot of things in our kitchen that can be used for planting! Plants like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and garlic can all be planted. If you can’t eat them, they can be used as bonsai!

In short, the weather in autumn is so good, so let’s start planting quickly and let our balcony be filled with treasures!

<<:  Don’t throw away the “leaves” on the radish. Plant them in the soil and water them. Eating them is more useful than “calcium tablets”!

>>:  Now you don’t need a “pot” to grow vegetables, you can just use a “bag”. Netizens have really creative ideas!
