China News Service, July 27. According to the US "World Journal" report, Rose, a Chinese in the East Bay of the United States, said on the 25th that the new crown pneumonia epidemic broke out. After evacuating the epidemic at home, he stayed at home most of the time. Various vegetables are grown in the backyard, and fresh and delicious greens can often be eaten on the dinner table at home, which makes people feast on.
She said that the key to growing vegetables is to put the gardening soil first, and water frequently after the seeds are planted.
Rose said that there are a lot of concrete in the backyard, only a few long pieces of land near the fence, but the soil is relatively poor, so I bought five packs of gardening soil at Home Depot, and spread it on the original land first. Sprinkle various seeds. Such as tomatoes, pumpkins, small carrots, green peppers, spinach, garlic, shallots and other seeds. Because California has a very arid climate, you must water it frequently to grow good vegetables.
Rose specially posted a variety of photos in the social media circle of friends to record the experience of growing vegetables. There are four kinds of tomatoes that she grows. After the tomatoes grew up, in order to prevent the branches from breaking under the load, the extra branches and leaves were cut off. One tree was cut to only bare stems and tomatoes. One tree was the fruit-bearing king tree, with 28 trees growing out at one time, without any pests and diseases, and the yield per plant was high. It is estimated that this tree will depend on the seeds for this year.
Seeing the tomatoes grow up slowly, turning from green to red, bending the branches, and picking them, the red tomatoes are filled with fruit baskets. Rose feels very happy. She described, "Tomatoes are ripe, and for the first time in life. With so many tomatoes, the four varieties are of different sizes, and they are full of happiness."
Not only did she harvest tomatoes, she also planted pumpkins, which were full of pumpkin flowers. After picking them, she kneaded them into meatballs and pumpkin pie. The family was full of praise. In addition, she also planted small radishes, which were eaten with radishes and leaves. The family likes them very much. “It’s delicious to eat fresh vegetables that you grow.” (Liu Xianjin)
