Have the last few months spent in your apartment convinced you to start urban gardening? Do you now want to be able to enjoy some fresh and 100% homemade vegetables all year round?
Here is a list of tips for successful grows:
Indeed, since your vegetable garden is in your house or apartment, your plants obviously receive less light than in a garden or outdoor space. It is therefore important to find a place for them near the window, receiving sunlight, if not on the balcony or the windowsill.
For your plants to grow perfectly indoors , choose the format that best suits your surface!
Do you live in a small apartment or studio? Turn to a potted vegetable garden , in terracotta, cork or recycled (jars of jam, tin can...) which will not take up too much space, while leaving enough space for the roots to develop.
If a Pot allows you to cultivate a plant, you can accumulate them to recreate the atmosphere of a real urban vegetable garden at home and thus enjoy several varied harvests all year round! Our Cork Pots are not perforated on the underside, to ensure the greatest possible maneuverability, you just have to bring them to the tap, pour a few drops and empty the surplus before placing your Pot wherever you want.
Planters come in many materials, each with advantages and disadvantages. Do not hesitate to inform yourself well at the time of your purchase in order to have a product corresponding to your needs and your desires!
All plants (vegetables, flowers, fruits or herbs) have very different water needs . However, some common rules are easy to apply and should allow you to quickly see the first shoots appear which you will then have to take care of! During the germination phase of your seeds or seedlings, the plant needs very little water, a few tablespoons several times a week is enough for it to develop and let the first shoots appear. Indeed, the plants are not fish and the roots are still fragile and do not have the capacity to absorb large quantities of water - be vigilant during the first 10 days! As soon as the growth is well underway, you can start watering your plant more regularly, almost every other day, and watch the leaves of the plants in your indoor garden develop at full speed!
