Supplementing potassium in summer: grow dozens of this potassium-rich food at home with an old plastic bottle

Summer is a key season for us to supplement potassium, and supplementing potassium at this time can achieve twice the result with half the effort. So whether we are adults or children, we all need to take timely action to supplement potassium, so that our bodies can be healthier in the second half of this year. In fact, there is one food that is fairly rich in potassium, and we can grow this food ourselves at home!

Now everyone must be wondering, what is this thing? Actually, it is the onion. Do you like eating onions? This editor originally did not know that onions could actually be grown at home, and that all you need is a plastic bottle. After learning this, I tried it right away, and the result was really great. One old bottle can grow dozens of them at a time. Now I will teach you.

What we need to do is also very simple. First, prepare some onion bulbs, wash them clean, and put them in a basin for later use. Then what we need to do is turn the old plastic bottle into the onion-growing container we need. First, punch many holes in the bottom of the plastic bottle, so that water can drain smoothly when the onions are grown later.

After that is done, the next thing we need to prepare is to punch holes in the sides of the bottle. These holes are used to hold the onions, and afterward we need to leave space for the onions and the positions where the onions may grow.

Once that is done, we can put soil into the plastic bottle. After the soil is laid, we can place the onions according to the positions of the holes. Generally, we put down a layer of soil, then a layer of onions, and keep going until we reach the top of the bottle. After placing them, we can set the bottle aside and wait for the onions to mature. During this process, do not forget to water them! Look, this is what the onions look like after they have grown. Pretty impressive, right!
