Create Your Green Space at Home
With the arrival of May, your balcony becomes the perfect spot to start your vegetable garden. This is the ideal season for growing delicious and fresh salads, giving you the satisfaction of harvesting your own greens just a few steps from your kitchen.
The Best Salads to Grow on Your Balcony
If you want quick and rewarding results, leafy vegetables like lettuce, arugula, spinach, and lamb's lettuce are perfect for balcony gardening. They adapt well to container gardening and grow quickly, offering abundant harvests with minimal space and effort.
- Lettuce: A classic that grows fast and can be harvested continuously.
- Arugula: Spicy and strong, perfect for adding flavor to any salad.
- Spinach: Rich in iron and ideal for both raw and cooked dishes.
- Lamb’s Lettuce: Tender and sweet, perfect for spring and summer.
Should You Start from Seeds or Buy Grown Plants?
Many novice gardeners wonder whether it’s better to start from seeds or buy young plants. Both options have their pros and cons:
- Starting from seeds gives you the joy of following the full growth cycle, it's more economical, and offers a wide choice of varieties.
- Buying grown seedlings saves time and ensures quicker harvests—perfect for those who want immediate results and have little experience.
Whichever option you choose, using a modular and intelligent growing system like Jocondo will make managing your urban garden simple and highly rewarding.
Freshness at Your Fingertips
