Benefits of a healthy diet and growing veggies yourselves

WEEGrow believe a healthy diet is essential for good health and nutrition. Reduction in the dietary intake of salt and sugars is mostly mentioned when it comes to a healthy diet. Too much salt and sugar may cause chronic diseases and increasing risks of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. But in addition to consuming less salt and sugar, eating fresh vegetables is another way to go.

Vegetables and fruits are an important part of a healthy diet. Eating fresh green vegetables is helpful to improve your health and provide you with fibre, vitamins, and plenty of antioxidants. 

Ask where to get fresh vegetables? Instead of telling you to go to grocery stores, most home growers will tell you to try growing them yourselves. They believe homegrown produce are far more better than the vegetables and fruits bought from the grocery. And they are right!

Growing your own veggies has many advantages:

  • Growing vegetables yourself will also save money at the grocery store. Especially for salad lovers. Lettuce and tomatoes are easy to raise and harvest. Definitely home gardening will help you save more money!
  • Growing food is a fun activity that all your family members can join. Planting seeds or watering vegetables teaches children about nature and how do the vegetables grow. Growing food together is a great way to help family get closer. 

To get started, you may need to prepare a pot, soil, seeds, water and light in advance. 

Fill nine-tenth of the pot with soil, sow the seeds, or if you would like to harvest it faster, plant vegetable shoots, and give them enough water. The last step is to provide them with enough light.

Some may encounter that it’s hard for them to provide enough light to their plants. Indeed. Though making salad with homegrown lettuce or pick a spring of mint from your garden to decorate a cake or make a glass of lemon tea would be much inspiring, how can we start our growing life if we don’t have a yard?

Select the right type of grow light for your plant

It can be said that, with right tools at hand, anywhere in your home can be a place when you can plant– balcony, kitchen, and even your living room. What you need to do is just choosing the right kits and vegetable varieties according to the planting scale.  

If you are a new grower, leafy salad greens like kale or lettuce will be a perfect starter. 

They don’t need a large space to grow. And full spectrum grow light bulbs or clip on grow light would be a good choice of a light source . You can place the plants in the living room or in the kitchen. Install a pendant light fixture and screw the full spectrum plant grow light bulb over the plant. If there is no extra space in the kitchen to install a pendant light fixture, you can turn to clip on grow light. As an example, WEEGrow clip on LED grow light: can stand on any surface or clip on edges. Bendable gooseneck and convenient and strong clip offers you more options in locating the plants.
