6 fruit potted plants more beautiful than flowers: easy on the eyes and edible, with so much fruit you'll pick until your hands go weak

6 fruit potted plants more beautiful than flowers, easy on the eyes and edible, with so much fruit you'll pick until your hands go weak! Let's take a look below at which 6 they are.

Mango potted plant

Mango is a fruit many people love to eat; it tastes sweet and is rich in vitamins, supplying the nutrients the human body needs, and you can also grow a mango potted plant, which has a strong ornamental effect too!

To pot a mango tree, choose a loose, well-draining sandy soil, add a small amount of organic fertilizer, and place it in a sunny spot; the more light, the better for flower bud differentiation and for increasing fruit set.

The temperature suitable for mango growth is above 20 degrees. Mango is also very tolerant of drought, but during the flowering and fruit-setting period, plenty of water must be provided so the fruit grows large and plump with good flavor.

When fertilizing a mango tree, apply light fertilizer frequently; before flowering, use less nitrogen fertilizer and increase phosphorus and potassium fertilizer!

Tomato potted plant

Small tomatoes have a sweet-and-sour taste and are rich in vitamin C, making them a fruit people greatly enjoy. A potted small tomato plant covered in red fruit is very beautiful and pretty, not inferior to fresh flowers at all, and it is edible too.

You can buy seedlings directly at a flower market and plant them into a flower pot at home; choose a clay pot, not a plastic pot or foam box, because a clay pot has better breathability and is better for the growth of the seedlings.

To grow a tomato potted plant and get it to set fruit, pay attention to pollination: you can place it in a well-ventilated spot, or use a small electric fan to blow air at the tomato plant, which can also help with pollination.

After fruit set, thin the fruit; for fruit that is growing poorly, pinch it off promptly, so the fruit that sets is larger and sweeter.

Strawberry potted plant

A strawberry potted plant is also very beautiful, and it yields a large amount of fruit at one time; the bright red fruit is even more beautiful than flowers, pleasing to the eye and edible, so why not.

You can use the sowing method, or buy seedlings directly; the sowing method is also very simple, and I'll share the sowing method below

Put the purchased seeds in gauze to germinate them, keep the gauze moist, and place it in a cool spot with indirect light; in about 10 to 15 days they will sprout, then sow them in prepared soil. You can propagate several pots at once this way, so you can eat them crop after crop continuously!

The management method is also quite simple: place it in a sunny, well-ventilated spot, keep the soil moist, and before fruit set, spray a monopotassium phosphate solution, which makes the fruit redder and larger with a sweet flavor.

Kumquat potted plant

Small kumquats are also a fruit we often eat; a potted small kumquat yields a very large amount of fruit at one time, is pretty and easy to grow, and you can buy seedlings directly, which is more convenient.

Choose a clay pot for good breathability; the potting soil can be made by mixing vegetable garden soil with leaf mold and adding a small amount of organic base fertilizer, which makes it full of fertility with good permeability and drainage, more suitable for the growth of small kumquats.

Water by the principle of watering when dry and stopping when wet; do not let water accumulate, as waterlogging can easily cause the roots of the small kumquat to rot. Place it in a sunny spot, and do not move it back and forth, as this can easily cause the fruit to drop!

Before fruit set, you can apply liquid fertilizer 2 to 3 times, which increases fruit set, and pay attention to thinning flowers and fruit so the fruit is larger and sweeter.

Watermelon potted plant

To grow a watermelon potted plant, the sowing method is recommended: soak the seeds in clean water for 3 to 4 hours, and choose vegetable garden soil plus leaf mold, adding a small amount of fermented chicken manure as base fertilizer.

Plant the soaked seeds into the soil, covering them with a shallow layer of soil. A newly sown pot should not be watered immediately, as this easily causes crusting and makes it hard for seedlings to emerge. So for the prepared soil, it is recommended to water it thoroughly the night before, and sow the next day when the soil moisture is just right.

After the seedlings emerge, normal water and fertilizer management can begin. Because watermelon seedlings are vine plants and need to keep climbing upward, insert a bamboo pole into the soil to help its growth.

To get fruit set, pollination is also very important. Note that the one with a small melon is the female flower; after flowering, smear the stamens of a male flower opened that day onto the stigma of the female flower, which helps complete pollination and allows watermelons to set smoothly.

Blueberry potted plant

To grow a blueberry potted plant, first choose the right variety. For indoor cultivation, the two varieties Sharpblue and O'Neal are not advisable to choose, as pollination is poor and fruit set is low. For home potted plants, you should also choose short plants; apart from these two, all other varieties can be grown as potted plants!

For the soil, choose a loose, fertile, well-draining soil; you can make it by mixing vegetable garden soil with leaf mold and adding a small amount of organic base fertilizer. It is recommended to choose a clay pot with a larger diameter, which has better breathability.

After planting, first place it in a cool spot with indirect light for a few days to recover, then care for it in a sunny spot. Keep the soil moist, but do not let water accumulate. It does not particularly like fertilizer; just apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer during the fruit-setting period. It will bear fruit in about the third year of cultivation, and can bear fruit continuously for 30 years!
