If you are new to this kind of gardening, don’t worry. A garden expert, Lee Reich, can give you his advice. Reich suggests starting with flowers or vegetables that are easy to grow from seeds (种子). However, Reich warns that some vegetables should not be grown as transplants. Root vegetables (根类蔬菜) like carrots, can’t be transplanted easily. It can hurt the roots. To get started with transplants, you will need a container and soil. The container should have one or more holes in the bottom. In this way, some water can run out. Garden soil, even good garden soil, says Reich, will not work because water can’t run out quickly. Our expert suggests using a special mix called potting soil. Then plant three or four seeds in each container. Cover the seeds with the soil. The most important thing for seeds’ growth is a proper temperature. How much warmth needed is different from plant to plant. A good average temperature for just about all seeds is about 24℃. Most seeds do not need light to grow. Cover the seeds with clear plastic to prevent them from drying up. Now for the exciting part—waiting to see little, green sprouts (新芽)! Clean up all but the strongest sprout from each container. Just be careful not to hurt the roots of the sprout that remains. Your goal now is to grow sprouts strong enough to survive after they are moved to the outside garden.
