Planter Cultivation of Watercress | Observe from sowing to harvest

Start cultivating iron-rich watercress!

July 3rd afternoon

I sowed.

Just pick it up with your hands and roll it up.

In particular, I watered without covering the soil.

Seeds are very small.

(The photo of the package and seeds was taken on July 18th and inserted later)

July 7

Germination was confirmed 4 days after sowing.

Unlike Komatsuna, which I started at the same time, I have the impression that it takes a little longer to germinate.

Komatsuna sprouted on the second day, and watercress on the fourth day.

July 9th

Two days after the first observation of germination, other seeds gradually sprouted.

July 11th

It's been 4 days since germination, but it hasn't grown much.

Although it is such a small bud, it can withstand the dryness of the soil surface of the planter and watering with a watering can.

The impression is that it is a strong vegetable that you don't have to worry about.

July 13th

The solids are still not getting bigger, but the number of sprouts is increasing across the board.

July 17th after 4 days

I didn't see much growth, but the first ones to sprout finally became four-leafed and taller, showing the difference.

I have the impression that the seeds I sowed continue to sprout a lot with a time difference.

From now on, it's time for me to thin out...
