What can be sown in December. Both beautiful and tasty

Do you want to start sowing now, in the first month of winter? Then a fiery salute, comrade impatient seedling grower! Today on the agenda is a list of crops that can be sown in December to partially relieve the sowing itch.

Is it worth sowing so early at all?

The last thing I want to do is give you false hopes by trying to get you to read all of my writing to the end. Citizens, I say right away: if there is no way to shine the seedlings with a lamp for 12-14 hours a day, close this article and remove the bags with seeds until better times.

As here the other day I learned from the article that already in December-January it is possible to sow late-ripening cabbage on seedlings. And what is the most ridiculous disinformation you have met in the open spaces of "Zen"?

Because more often than not, early sowing has to be taken not for the sake of, but in spite of it. In December, there are no conditions for the growth of seedlings: you will have to create them from A to Z with your own hands.

What can be sown edible in December

Congratulations, if you have read the article up to this point, then you are serious, so the idea will work out. But the choice of crops for the December sowing, giving an edible harvest, is very scarce.

If we discard all these indoor tomatoes / peppers / eggplants and greens, then I call rational only strawberries and strawberries. My mother-in-law indulges in berry seedlings every year, planting more and more new varieties of bushes in the garden at the end of May. And most often in the same year, the first harvest, albeit a meager one, is already harvested.

I cannot call this method - a way to renew a strawberry plantation. But it is quite effective to complement and entertain yourself.

What can be sown in December beautiful

First of all, let's talk about the garden. December is the month when it would be time to sow tall eustoma. Stunted, comrade, this one later.

And do not believe that she is moody. It just happens to be slow. But in exchange for good care and decent conditions, it quickly accelerates, forms and is gaining buds by the second half of summer. There will be something to upload to Odnoklassniki.

You will be considered a real original if you grow a perennial delphinium from seeds. The plant has a rather long runway. But early sowing promises flowering in the current season. Go for it!

Note to a friend: Delphinium is a unique cutting plant with a "summer cottage" atmosphere. Especially in a Soviet vase on a crocheted white napkin

A similar story is with the Carpathian bell. It's like the good old "Groom" from the USSR, only for the street. Looks great in dense curtains located at the foot of the flower bed. Hold your gaze at his photographs for a couple more seconds, if you are not afraid of small seeds and thin seedlings-strings. Well, maybe it's worth it?

And how not to remember about pelargonium here. It can be sown later, but after the December sowing, the plant will bloom by May. Pelargonium seedlings are perhaps the most unpretentious of the entire flower list. Therefore, if you decide on the December-daring sowing for the first time, I advise you to practice on it.

Another flower-noble slow-witted - tuberous begonia. If the plants survive the seedling stage, they will gain green mass and show flowers in the summer. By the way, there are interesting ampelous options for hanging pots. Like, for example, srt "Illumination". Just remember: in the first year, such plants are not sent to rest. On the second - be sure!

I saved gloxinia for the house. When you don't have your own garden, and you want to plant seedlings, then this bright baby becomes an excellent option. And in the spring you will already see the fruits of your labor.

Basically, you can plant seeds in December in general, any indoor and not very plants for the house. If you now want to be indignant and write "I don’t do such nonsense!" There was, there was this enthusiasm and romanticism!

And here I am - I dabble in abutilon.

I liked the selection and it was not very boring - press, comrade, "Thumbs up"!
Sincerely yours, Fyodor Tyapkin-Sklyankin, disappointed in indoor tangerines.
