How to grow kidney beans on the balcony?

Select pot

You can prepare a slightly larger flower pot or foam box, and the depth should be at least 25 cm.

Covering

Try to choose a slightly finer soil.

sowing

Use your fingers to drill a few small holes in the soil, about 5 cm deep. Leave a certain distance between each hole, and don't make them too dense. Sow 1 to 3 kidney bean seeds in each hole and then fill the holes with soil. At this time, you need to water the plant enough at one time, but there should be no waterlogging or accumulation of water. Be careful not to wash out the seeds when watering.

germination

It will take about 7 days for the kidney bean seeds to germinate; if the environment is too dry at this time, you can cover the box with a layer of film. To maintain the humidity of the environment during the germination period.

Watering

Before the kidney beans bloom, water as little as possible, observe the soil, and water only when the soil becomes dry. When it blooms, water it more often. Under normal circumstances, water it once every 2 to 3 days. Pay attention to the amount of watering and avoid water accumulation. If the temperature is high, you can increase the frequency of watering appropriately, but do not increase the amount of watering.

Fertilization

Before the growing season of kidney beans, fertilizer should be applied 2-3 times. Mainly nitrogen fertilizer. During flowering and bean production, organic fertilizer can be applied once or twice a week.

Harvest

About 10 days after the kidney bean flowers wither, the kidney beans are about 10 cm long and can be picked and eaten.

The kidney beans grown by beginners will taste even better. The editor would also like to remind friends here that kidney beans must be cooked before eating.
