Delicious Foods That You Can Grow Inside Your Home

Cool As A Cucumber

Cucumbers need lots of room to grow, so you will need quite a large pot for them. However, you can grow them in hanging pots as well. Place small stones in the bottom of the pot for better drainage and to ensure the roots do not get soggy. Fill the rest with a half and half soil and compost mixture, then plant four to five seeds approximately half an inch deep in the soil and half an inch from each other. Now make sure your pot is in a position to receive six or more hours of sunlight each day.

When the plants begin to grow to a height of two to three inches, identify the two strongest and eliminate the rest from the pot. As the two plants reach approximately ten inches, remove the smaller, weaker plant. Continue watering your last plant, so the soil stays moist. You should have cucumbers within fifty to eighty days.
