With a passion for gardening, the young couple has ‘turned’ the terrace into a productive melon garden that makes anyone who sees it admire.
Having a green space with a variety of fruit-laden agricultural products is always the wish of many families, especially those with terraces. However, terrace gardening is never easy if the owner does not have passion and experience in farming.
Recently, the social network shared pictures of a green garden on the terrace with a trellis of melons laden with fruit. Not only in terms of productivity, the large and large melons are all “10 fruits like 1”, making anyone looking at them have to admire. Marvel at the 70m2 terrace with beautiful melons like a model garden Through research, it is known that the owners of this special garden are him and his wife Nguyen Cong Bang (31 years old) and sister Pham Thi Phuong (30 years old), in Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City. Share with Infonet , Mr. Bang said, in order to have the current fruit-bearing garden, he invested about 10 million to buy seeds, fertilizers and all kinds of clamps, hanging ropes, and fruit bags. With meticulous care and investment, he harvested more than 2 quintals of melons per litter. The number of melons is large, so in addition to providing the family’s needs, he sells them to get capital to reinvest in the garden. “Instead of chemical drugs, I use self-incubated organic microorganisms to prevent disease. At the stage of melon growth, I fertilize with fish protein, spray to prevent thrips and beetles with Neem oil, when pollinating, stop fertilizing fish protein or compost. It is possible to stimulate sweetening of the fruit with a solution of bananas and incubated milk eggs. Cantaloupe is harvested after 80-90 days of planting, while melons are faster,” Bang shared more about how to care for melons. “I check the stalk and left ass continuously, avoid cracking the ass, fall off the stalk, cut off the last 3 days without watering. Pick the fruit and leave it to cool for 2-3 days, remove it from the refrigerator for 2 hours, it is the most delicious. The old soil in the previous crop was only used half, mixed with goat manure, chicken, cow, fresh rice husk, lime powder to incubate from the beginning, “said Bang. Anh Bang started growing agricultural products on the terrace 3 years ago. When he had his own house, he and his wife liked the terrace, so they renovated and arranged to be able to grow their favorite plants. Initially, he mainly grew vegetables, after a while he planted more flowers and fruit trees. Recently, he has been interested in growing cantaloupe, which is considered difficult to grow but he has achieved great results. Currently, Mr. Bang’s terrace melon garden has a density of 80 trees, equivalent to 80 fruits, each fruit weighs about 2.5kg. Cantaloupe needs a lot of sunshine, so with the southern weather, it will be favorable to grow, a year can grow 4 cantaloupe crops and the North can only have 1 crop due to heavy rain. Mr. Bang’s melon garden not only satisfies his passion for growing agricultural products on the terrace but also gives his family the perfect living space.
