Amaranth is a common vegetable variety in our life. Amaranth is rich in nutritive value and has the effect of tonifying the kidney and strengthening the stomach. In the folk leeks is also known as "saline." In addition to the health benefits, the leek is also very good in taste. Whether it is barbecue or stuffing, leek is a good ingredient. Friends who have grown amaranth should know that it is easier to grow amaranth and eat it one after another. Then, can you grow amaranth at home? Let's learn the steps of planting the leek in the family balcony together with the small series of Huinong.
Container
If you don't have a flowerpot, you can use a container with a gap to drain excess water for amaranth planting.
Seed
You can go to the market to buy some seeds or buy leeks directly, which can be used as seeds. You can plant directly after buying the seeds, but it is best to put the seeds in the water for a day, then put them on the soil.
3. Germination
The germination period of the seeded amaranth will be a bit slow. We can put the container after sowing in a ventilated place, and after a week, we will see the amaranth bud. The growth of leek is faster after germination. At this time, the demand for nutrients is relatively strong, so this time you can properly fertilize and water.
4. Fertilization
It is best to use nitrogen fertilizer to fertilize leeks. The leeks that have used fertilizers usually grow larger, while those that do not apply fertilizer are usually smaller than those that are fertilized, so fertilization is more important.
5. Harvesting
When the leek grows to 10cm, it can be harvested. If you don't harvest in time, the leek will grow longer and older, affecting the taste. However, when harvesting, you must not harvest the roots. Keeping the roots will always grow, and you will end up with one after another.
Above we are talking about the method of planting amaranth with seeds. In fact, it can also be planted with ready-made amaranth as follows:
1. Handle the roots of amaranth: cut from the root of the amaranth 4cm
2. Seeding: insert the cut root into the soil;
3. Watering: Give the right amount of water to the freshly grown leeks;
4. Ventilation: Place it in a relatively ventilated area on the balcony.
The rest of the method is the same as the method of seeding amaranth.
