What kind of food is good?

Here, we take the balcony planting at home as an example:

Balcony is limited to potted plants because of its small space. We usually choose vegetables that we often eat, with short plants and strong ornamental value. Such as onion, garlic, leek, coriander, celery, spinach, lettuce, mint, amaranth and so on. Of course, if the balcony is large, you can also choose to plant eggplant, tomato, pepper and cucumber, because these are also vegetables that everyone loves to eat.

First, garlic

Garlic is warm, fragrant and pungent. It has the functions of invigorating the stomach, promoting digestion and sterilizing. It is a seasoning vegetable that people must eat every day. Planting one or two pots on the balcony at home not only beautifies the ornamental function, but also meets the supply of garlic seedlings for the whole family. Suitable for cooking, stewing and chafing dish. More importantly, garlic seedlings can be picked repeatedly!

Second, coriander

Coriander is also called coriander. In daily life, people often wash it, cut it into pieces, and sprinkle it in vegetables or soup to remove fishy smell, enhance flavor and color. It is one of the good seasonings. Has the effects of invigorating spleen, stimulating appetite, dispelling cold, removing toxic substances, and softening blood vessels.

Coriander can be planted all year round. Because it is only for family to eat spices, and there are not many picks at a time, it is more than enough to plant one or two pots on the balcony.

Third, amaranth.

Amaranth, also known as Yanlaihong, is not only a home-cooked dish, but also a wild vegetable. People often scatter it on the edge of fields and corners and let it grow freely. A little longer, tender stems and leaves are used for cold salad, soup, stew or hot pot. But it is more used for cold salad.

Amaranth picking takes a long time, from April to June every year, 65438+ 10. But it tastes better from the vernal equinox to the summer solstice. It is rich in calcium, iron and vitamin K, and has the effects of clearing heat, promoting diuresis, cooling blood and stopping bleeding. Eating in moderation can also promote the growth of teeth and bones and prevent muscle spasms. Planting one or two pots on the balcony can be delicious, which is quite good.

Fourth, lettuce.

Lettuce is also called leaf lettuce. Its whole plant is leaves, and its taste is crisp and tender. You can eat it raw with dipping sauce, stir-fry it, make soup, and rinse it in hot pot. It is a popular leafy vegetable.

Lettuce is rich in dietary fiber and trace elements. Eating regularly can not only improve sleep, but also lose weight. There can be all kinds on the balcony.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) Chili

Pepper, like garlic, plays a very important role in daily life, especially in the south, where people like to eat spicy food. People often use it to stir-fry meat, mix cold dishes, make peppers or make hot pot.

Pepper has low plant shape, beautiful fruit shape, long picking time and high ornamental value, which is suitable for balcony planting.

Six, eggplant and melon

Eggplant and melon are one of the vegetables we often eat. It tastes tender and soft. People often use it to make cold salad, stir-fry or barbecue. Rich in protein, fat, vitamins, carbohydrates and trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus and iron. Has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, reducing blood fat, losing weight, caring skin and resisting aging. Because its plants are not tall, its melon shape is beautiful, its color is purple and its ornamental value is high, so it is very suitable for balcony ornamental vegetable planting.

To sum up, the choice of self-produced vegetables depends on the different planting environment. At the same time, plant according to your own and your family's preferences.
