2. Plant colorful peppers on the balcony, it is best to bury some bottom fertilizer when planting, such as bird droppings, vermicompost, chicken manure, or sprinkle a handful of compound fertilizer at the bottom of the pot to ensure that the seedlings grow strong and the peppers bear more.
3. Because the seedlings want to blossom and bear fruit, it is best to bask in the sun more, and the pepper seedlings will not grow in full sunlight, and the flowers are fruitful. Watering should not be too much, generally about 5 days to water once a time.

2. If you pay attention to moisturizing, the mushrooms will grow in 3-5 days, and the mushrooms should be removed quickly before they become flat, otherwise they will be old.
3. Mushrooms will grow around the fungus stick, continue to spray it after cutting, as long as you see the mycelium bulge, focus on the position of the bulge. If it grows almost the same, you can cut it and put it in the soil, and you can continue to grow mushrooms.
The number of mushrooms growing per stubble is limited, you can buy a few more sticks of the same species, and harvest them at the same time to make up a dish; A small amount of mushrooms can also be used to cook soup and make hot pot.
