When it comes to growing vegetables, many gardening enthusiasts feel it is much more worthwhile than growing flowers. For example, growing a pot of vegetables lets you enjoy the fun of planting while also being able to eat healthy, pollution-free vegetables at any time, which is something growing flowers cannot match.

So which vegetables are more suitable for growing on a balcony? There are actually many, but today I will share a few cancer-fighting vegetables. Eating them regularly can detoxify the body, not only keeping you healthy but also reducing the "cancer rate." Let's take a look!

Eat "3 kinds of vegetables" regularly to reduce the "cancer rate"; grow a pot on the balcony and eat them whenever you want!

(1)

Asparagus

When it comes to cancer-fighting vegetables, asparagus comes first. Its nutritional value is extremely high, and asparagus contains a large amount of fiber and vitamins, which can cut greasiness, promote bowel movements, and effectively boost the body's metabolism. The histone contained in asparagus can effectively promote the growth of normal cells in the human body and can inhibit the growth of diseased cells and cancer cells. Asparagus is also rich in selenium and asparaginase, which can effectively eliminate various harmful free radicals produced in the body, inhibit the activity of carcinogens, and has anti-cancer and cancer-preventing effects.

Such a good vegetable also tastes quite fresh and delicious. Many people love to eat it, especially some elderly friends, for whom eating it regularly is even better.

It can also be grown in pots on a balcony. It needs nutrient-rich, loose and airy soil. You can use leaf mold plus coarse sand, vermiculite, and garden soil. Asparagus seeds need to be soaked before planting; soaking in water at temperature for about 5 days is enough. After soaking, put them in a moist cloth to sprout, which takes about 2-3 days.

After planting, they will sprout quickly. After sprouting, you can transplant some of them out or thin the seedlings; if they are too crowded, they will not grow well. Put the asparagus in a bright spot and keep the potting soil moist. During this period, some slow-release fertilizer needs to be applied, but it is best to use fermented and decomposed organic fertilizer, after all, it is for your own consumption.

Also, after asparagus is harvested for a year, it will grow more and more, and grow denser and denser. It can be said that planting it once allows you to harvest for more than 10 years, which is especially suitable.

Celery

Celery is a relatively common vegetable. Everyone may know that eating celery regularly can lower blood pressure, but did you know that celery's anti-cancer effect is also particularly good? Celery is rich in fiber, which can speed up the emptying of residue in the intestines and shorten the time toxic substances stay in the intestinal tract, thereby playing a certain cancer-preventing role and reducing the occurrence of intestinal cancer, esophageal cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer.

Growing celery in pots is actually very simple. You can choose to grow it from seeds, or after eating celery, keep the celery base, and this way you can quickly grow a pot of celery. Celery can also be harvested like chives; as long as fertilizer and water keep up, it can grow especially fast, and care is simple too.

Tomato

Tomato is a relatively common vegetable with many ways to eat it. It can be used in soup or in dishes, and both adults and children love it. Tomatoes contain a large amount of lycopene, which can activate the dissolving effect of lymphocytes on cancer cells, promote the secretion of anti-cancer factors, and reduce the human body's cancer rate.

Growing tomatoes in pots on a balcony is also very simple, and they set fruit extremely easily. Generally, when growing tomatoes, you can plant them from seeds. You need to prepare a slightly larger flower pot, and it is best to plant 1-2 plants in one pot. With fertilizer, water, and light kept up, they set fruit very easily, enough for the whole family to eat, and it is especially convenient.
