Among them, gardening. For people who own land, this is an ideal opportunity to sow the first seeds in April. For all those who live in an apartment, know that it is possible to create your own mini greenhouse using plastic containers. Here&#8217;s a tip that will delight all gardening enthusiasts!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you dream of germinating seeds and growing your own vegetables but don&#8217;t have a garden? This is quite possible and the solution is at hand. With plastic boxes you can create your ecological mini garden. Here you have all our tips for making an ecological and renewable mini greenhouse!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/seeds-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-317468\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What you need to make a mini greenhouse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A clear plastic container with a lid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>potting soil<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seeds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optionally, you can use individual or cup planting cups (for example, cardboard egg bottoms&nbsp;&nbsp;)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>To your seeds, ready? Come on!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Wash and dry the plastic container.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If using seed cups inside your mini greenhouse, fill them with clean potting soil so that you fill each cup \u00be full. If you only use the plastic container, fill it with clean soil and again it will have to be \u00be of the container.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/seeds-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-317467\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\">\n<li>Plant the seeds according to package directions and water just enough to moisten them. A vaporizer will do the trick. You can then close the lid of your plastic box.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You have the option of using the mini greenhouse indoors or outdoors, taking into account the weather. When the weather turns mild, place the mini greenhouse outside during the day, making sure it is located in an area well exposed to sunlight. If you are using the mini greenhouse indoors, position it so that it is in an area that receives plenty of natural light. Also, be sure to check from time to time to see if the soil dries out when the greenhouse is in full sun. If this is the case, all you need to do is sprinkle some water and keep the soil moist. Therefore, the principle will be to keep your mini greenhouse indoors at night and place it in the&nbsp;&nbsp;sun&nbsp;during the day.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All you have to do is wait for your seedlings to emerge from your confection and the result will be ready in no time. When your seedlings grow in size and have outgrown the covered space, all you need to do is open the cover with a popsicle stick or other tool (since you can simply pull it out). As long as the temperature exceeds freezing, it will not be necessary to keep the greenhouse covered, as long as you remember to bring it inside at night.<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/go.ezodn.com\/utilcave_com\/ezoicbwa.png\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/seeds-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-317466\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We recommend that you label your buckets. This will allow you to recognize the plant and its variety and above all remember the date of its sowing. For 100% renewable mini greenhouses you can recycle your labels instead of buying them. To do this, simply cut them from yogurt pots and other containers intended for disposal and stick them on your glasses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In these times of confinement, many people are taking the opportunity to discover new activities to practice as a family.
