Grow these vegetables in pots in autumn and winter; the leaves are thick, tender and fast-growing, and one pot gives you a good harvest

Life, work and study are too rushed; we need a slower pace of life, to spend more time with family, grow a few flowers at home and plant a few pots of vegetables, so life becomes happier, more beautiful and more leisurely. In autumn and winter the temperature is not especially low, so you can actually still grow many kinds of vegetables. Growing vegetables at this time brings a lovely green touch to the home, and when you want some fresh greens as a garnish, you don't have to go out to buy them, you can just pick some straight from the pot.

Plant a pot of these vegetables in autumn and winter; they sprout fast and grow fast, and in thirty days you can harvest them, and then you have vegetables to eat!

Stem lettucehas a very fresh, delicate taste and is rich in vitamins, iron and calcium. Everyone has eaten cold-dressed stem lettuce, right? Sprinkled with a little sesame it is very fragrant and goes down wonderfully with rice. Actually you can plant stem lettuce as early as October. Sow the seeds directly: first prepare the pot and the potting soil, water the soil until moist, then scatter some seeds, trying to spread them as evenly as possible, then cover with a thin layer of sandy soil, and they will sprout in a week.

Keep the light adequate, and once the seedlings are a bit bigger, water more with cake fertilizer water or manure water, and the leaves will shoot up and be a beautiful, eye-catching green. When the winter temperature is low, you can also slip a plastic bag over the pot to let it keep growing.

Lettuceis a vegetable we eat often in daily life; the fresher it is, the tastier. Lettuce is so easy to grow that even a beginner who has never grown vegetables or kept flowers can do it with no pressure at all. The seeds are best no more than two years old, because seeds kept too long will affect the germination rate. They sprout after a week.

After the seedlings emerge, do not water too much; give them plenty of sun, and once true leaves appear you can thin them out.

The seedlings can also be transplanted. The more fertile the potting soil, the bigger the leaves grow. One gardener who grew lettuce in a flower pot had a single plant grow as big as a plate. That is enough to stir-fry a bowl.

Spinachautumn and winter are exactly the time to grow spinach. Some gardeners say the spinach they grow sprouts slowly. Xiaoya has tried a little trick: first soak the spinach seeds in water for a day, or chill them in the refrigerator for a day, and then sow them, and they will sprout especially fast.

Fifteen to twenty degrees is a very suitable temperature for spinach to grow, and there will be no pests either. During the seedling stage, water spinach with more manure water and it will grow especially sturdy, both thick and tender. Spinach grown in autumn and winter tastes very good.

Baby bok choy, small green bok choycan be planted all year round, but this vegetable planted in autumn and winter, once it has been through frost, tastes even sweeter and more delicious. Soak the seeds for a few hours before sowing and they sprout faster.

Do not plant them too densely; this way they keep good ventilation and light. Add some chicken manure fertilizer or cake fertilizer to the soil as a base fertilizer. As long as the soil is fertile and the sunlight is ample, these greens will all grow very vigorously. Each time pick the biggest ones to eat and leave the small ones to keep growing; once a pot is finished, sow again right away. That way you always have vegetables to eat.
