Racks
The main plus shelving in the fact that on a multi-tiered structure, you can fit a lot of containers with seedlings, and after the end of growing, use it as a storage system for other things.
For plants to receive more light, place the shelving closer to the window or on the balcony., and also complement it with artificial lighting. Products made of metal, wood or plastic are suitable - it all depends on style of your interior.
To place pots with plantings, you can use a mobile serving table on wheels - its high sides will protect the seedlings from falling. Another good option is a mini-greenhouse, which will protect the shoots from night frosts. You can buy ready-made or do it yourself using a film.
Shelves on the windowsill
The most suitable place for growing seedlings in an apartment is windowsill, which provides good illumination of green spaces. But its width is often not enough to accommodate all the pots.
To increase the usable area, you can use ready-made mini-shelves or craft them yourself. Another option is shelvesinstalled along the window. Also, the seedlings are hung on rails or placed on hanging shelves - the type of fastening depends on the material from which the slopes are made.
On the wall
Vertical garden - an excellent way out for those who do not have spacious rooms or balconies, but love to grow flowers, vegetables and greens. This technique not only preserves useful space, but also decorates the interior.
Seedlings that do not occupy horizontal surfaces will become inaccessible to children and pets. To place the pots on the wall, use wooden boxes or metal mesh: in the first case, the containers are placed directly inside, and in the second, they are attached with wire or hooks.
To avoid buying pots, use disposable plastic cups.
Seedling containers
Traders have already taken care of gardeners, so they offer numerous options for planting boxes. The most suitable shape for such containers is rectangular. It rationally occupies the window sill area and looks very harmonious, therefore, it is suitable for those who care about aesthetics.
Wooden boxes for seedlings can be put together with your own hands, using boards and waterproof material to protect the windowsill from moisture. For freestanding containers, plastic trays or pallets are provided.
Do you want your mini vegetable garden to look attractive? Plant the seeds in matching pots. But even if you use ordinary homemade newspaper containers, find a nice box for them that will unite the composition.
Pockets
Another way to place seedlings vertically is to use special pockets. Such organizers can be found in interiors: they store stationery, shoes, toys and other little things.
But plant pockets are made of non-woven material that prevents moisture from spreading.Products can be ordered from the online store or sewn on your own.
It is allowed to fill up the soil both in the pockets themselves and in previously prepared pots. In the second case, the device plays the role of a holder, allowing you to neatly arrange the containers on the wall.
Bottle
This method of planting will take some time, because first the bottles need to be accumulated. To create hanging pots, you need a utility knife, wire, and sturdy cords. Plastic is easy to process and is lightweight, so a hanging mini-garden will be a simple and budget solution.
Bottles can be hung both horizontally and vertically - depending on the number of seedlings and the space allocated for it.
Eggshell
And finally, one of the most unusual and fun ways to grow seedlings. Small pots are made from a quarter-split egg and their containers are made from cardboard trays.
This is not only practical, but also useful: calcium is easily absorbed by plants, and the elements contained in the shell deoxidize the soil. Shoots are planted directly in the shell, so that the root system is not damaged.
Seedlings will easily become an interior decoration if you approach their cultivation not only wisely, but also with imagination.
