¿Qué necesito para un huerto urbano?
Apr 27, 2023Hello everyone, today I am going to show you how easy it is to set up a planter if you have a small space at home. Well, then you can cheer up, you can start multiplying the number of planters you want to use, but if you want to cheer up, the truth is that it is an investment. tiny, it barely cost me 50 euros, I'll leave you the link here for this specific planter and you don't need to drill or screw or anything like that because the pieces fit together, even the planter has three of its own Geo textile mesh, which is where the Earth, so I'll show you step by step, super easy to encourage you.
And although they must all have a very similar assembly system, there is a short explanation here with each piece with its letter so that you know in which order to fit them, but it is super simple as you can see. super easy it barely took me 5 minutes now we are going to put the geotextile mesh and for that you will need to have a stapler because it is the way in which we are going to be able to join the mesh to our structure you just have to look at the step small, put the smallest cloth in the medium, the medium cloth, and so on.
As you can see, each area has its own space for the plants, they do not share it. raised and easier to do all these things you don't have to be crouched down I know that the cultivation tables are somewhat more expensive I advise you not skimp on recording since they will be supporting many kilos of earth more then the plants that we grow here, so If we do not want the fabric to tear, it is better that we put some extra staples, the next step will therefore be to fill our planter with the appropriate soils for our plants to grow.
In general, the percentage that is usually used is a mixture of 60 % universal substrate half 30% worm humus that will help all those plants that we grow to grow well And finally the remaining 10% of Perlite that will help aerate our land as it can be a bit confusing since the bags come in liters what I do is a plastic container and fill the planter in the proportions that I have told you about, therefore I would make 6 ladles of Universal 3 of worm humus one of Perlita I mix and continue filling in these proportions the gloves are optional but they are useful because at the moment when you are mixing the soils, it is not that the soils get dirty and then it gets very deep in your nails and it costs a bit to clean it well, so a pair of gloves is good and we can undo these balls of land And finally we would have to select those varieties that we want in our garden, what do we have to take into account the most important thing that is planted at all times?
We can sow other varieties directly depending on the plant. It is recommended that we plant them in seedbeds The easiest version is to buy directly the seedling that is our small plant and we already make sure that it will grow and that it will not fail in its germination. You do not have to know absolutely what each plant needs in the seed envelope You are going to see that the amount of substrate you need is specified, hence it is comfortable to have three levels in your window box some plants will need very little others will need much more depth to grow perfectly and something important is also the distance in which plants between them, since you must comply with this planting framework if you want them to grow without competing in nutrients or in space, the bimi, for example, I bought directly on the campus and it has to be in the deepest drawer and at a distance of about 40 centimeters, perhaps I was a bit risky putting three on the same step but I'll tell you if they grow.
If not, I'll have to end up taking one from here and putting it in a much larger container in the chard, for example, you can see more clearly that I've tried to plant them diagonally so that they respect between them the distance they need and could fit some more because I hope with this I have encouraged you to get started in this of your own urban garden if you want to go direct I will leave a link to the materials that we have talked about that you need to get started And if you want to continue Seeing the evolution of the orchard on our terrace, we encourage you to subscribe to the Channel, write it to me in the comments and see you in the next video.
